It's running around with a new, air-cooled en gine that's producing more power in all four gears. (In other words, it can now beat an old Karmann Ghia at a stoplight.) It has a new top speed of 82 mph. And new disc brakes up front (the kind you pay extra for on most other cars). Of course, being a Volkswagen, there are some things that haven't changed and never will. Around 28 miles to a gallon of gas . . . 40,000 miles to a set of tires . . . VW parts at VW prices . . . quick service . .. and a price tag that remains a low $2250.00?" So it's still an economy car. Only now it growls all the way to the bank.

In a nearby house are five, Duke undergraduate boys, Bill Phillips of Durham; Rick Lacy of Rochester, N. Y.; Steve Worful of Anchorage, Ky.; Curt Lauber of Drexel Hill, Pa.; and Bucky Sands of Alexandria, Va. Coming from diversified backgrounds, the students all have one thing in common a deep concern with the prob lems of urban poverty. The experiment is being sponsored by the Duke Re ligious Life Council, which also supports the Edgemont Community Center in the neighborhood. The idea of al lowing full - time students to combine academics with a living and ' working situation grew out of project "Listen", a summer urban mission, op erated by college students and sponsored by the Baptist de nomination. Dee and Jackie are political science majors with a vital interest in doing social work after graduate school. But the girls stress they are not playing "social worker" in their new neighborhood. "We're living here and get ting to know the people. We're not going out and looking for somone to help. Our neigh bors are the ones who'll be helping us," Jackie explains. ; Becoming a part of the neighborhood and gaining in sights into the attitudes of the community wasn't as difficult as Dee and Jackie first ima gined. They are learning the patterns of their environment in simple-but-effective-ways. "The worth of a front porch is amazing," Jackie said. - "The first night we were here, we just sat on the front porch and the kids swarmed around us. 'Student' is a mag ic word to them," Dee said Living with the girls and "interpreting what they ex perience," are Mr. and Mrs. Sam Stone, former Duke stu dents now d o i n g graduate work at the university. Stone is in, his. final year of divinity school and his wife, Bonnie, is !working toward her - masters 'degree in English. The group is contributing "availability" to the Edge mont Community, Stone ad vises. uWe make no great claims. We're feeling our way. We don't have financial as sistance to give, but we can give other kinds of aid if its requested." The other kinds of aid en compass such things , as infor mation about welfare and pub lic health services, a night ride to the hospital with some one who has been injured in a fight, a cup of coffee, or a bed for the night. "We're not in the business to help, but to be here," Stone emphasized. There is tangible evidence the students are offering their experience, to the community, as well as benefitting from Would you believe "College Men Only"? COLLEGE LIFE INS. Co. 151 E.

Jackie and Dee are involved in tutoring projects with neighborhood children who need additional incentive and instruction to remain inter ested in gaining an educa tion. Dee also is spending sev eral afternoons a week tutor ing a disabled child who can't attend school. In addition to academic help, the girls are offering friend ship to the children and a chance to enjoy some of the experiences they had as chil dren. They have planned trips to the library and a visit to a soccer game for the children.
