We have ap proximately seventy student volunteers involved in the Peace Corps this year of which over half are freshmen. Several fa culty members and their wives tave Income both directly and ladlrectly involved. Two new programs have been added to the list this year: A boy Scout troop and academic tutoring. The scout troop Is serving twenty-two boys from the Carolina Park area. Led by their fearless scoutmasterj John Haluska, they learn how to tie knots, play games and all l!lnds of useful crafts and skills. There are five students serv- *06 as assistant scoutmasters. All were once scouts. Seven students are Involved In Wademlc tutoring at South Scot- iMd Elementary School. These students work closely with the ^cher and give individual at- teotion to pupils who are slow *0 keeping up with the rest of tile class. The art workshop Is a big suc cess Jhls year. Every Saturday afternoon at 2:00 thirty-two kids Invade the art department for instructions in arts and crafts. Glnny Tebo Is co ordinating this program and she has eight volunteers help ing her. We have sixteen students in volved in after-school tutoring which has always been a big program in the Peace Corps. Other programs are Story Hour and a growing Juvenile Prolja- tlon program. Due to a severe decrease in our budget the Peace Corps has not been able to function in as many areas as hoped. Over half of our money is being spent in the use of school lacilltles such as the rental of the activity bus and P. E. faculties. There is a chance that the Peace Corps will not be able to func tion at all next semester be- cause of finances. The Peace Corps Is open to anyone who wants to Join.
