"I was looking for something
that could be . meaningful to
me," said the. former student at
San Francisco State. College.
Miss . Burnett was . working
at a clerical job when she read
of the VISTA program in the
San Francisco . Examiner. "I
was dissatisfied with my major
in English Lit," she said, "but
after three years it was too late
to change majors!" She made
application for the program and
" was one of the first 13 selected.
Miss Burnett and another
volunteer Dick Guske, 20, will
serve the program in a hospital
somewhere in . the Appalachian
Mountains. She has an interest
in working with children and
hopes that she will be placed
in that field. -

found me physically ineligible

The Peace Corps turned his
name over to VISTA and he was
asked to apply. Willingham
hopes he can use his technical
background to help. "I'm very
interested in people and I want
to do what I can to help those
who need it," he said.

Considered Peace Corps
Retired Navy Commander
John C. Henry, 50, has also
originally considered joining
the Peace Corps. "I've been to
so many of those far-away
places with strange sounding
names during my career in the
Navy that I decided to do
something for America. Re
tired since July 1962, Henry
felt he could stand the "empti
ness of leisure" no longer. "Re
tirement is fun for, a little bit,
but it wears out after a while,"
he said. "I've had a full life
and I knew I had to find some
thing to occupy my time.".
Henry, George H. Cottell, and
Jackie Steingold are scheduled
to go to Hartford, Conn, to as

standard housing and to relo
cate the families displaced by

Groundwork Laid For Two
Pilot Residence Colleges
Groundwork for the establish
ment oi pilot residence colleges
in the Lower Quad and Parker,
Teague and Avery Residence
halls was laid in a meeting of
residence hall and Student Gov
ernment leaders yesterday in
Graham Memorial.
If the two pilot colleges prove
successful, the University will ar
range all other men's residence
halls into residence colleges.
Representatives from the two
pilot areas, the Men's Residence
Council and Student Government
formulated plans for proposed
elections of residence college of
ficials and allocation of funds for
the project.
The MRC will vote on the two
proposals for the project in a
Cite
labor manager.
"I read about the project
while I was Director of Hous
ing at Fallover, Mass," said
Cottell. Forced to retire by
Massachusetts law when he was
70, he was looking for: a fruit
ful way to spend his retire
ment years. "I've been active
all my life," he said. "I don't
like retirement in the first
place.", jfc--,.
Oldest Volunteer
The oldest volunteer is 89-year-old
Miss Elizabeth M.
Brown of Kinston whose spe
cialty is psychology and re
search methods. She wants to
assist in the rehabilitation and
social adjustment of mentally
retarded children. For this
work she will be sent to Clover
Bottom Hospital in Tennessee.
Despite her age VISTA ac
cepted Miss Brown's applica
tion because of her great ac
tivity and experience in clini
cal psychology. She has retired,
but "I just felt like I wanted to
go back to work and help peo
ple," she said.
"I am concerned mainly with
getting these children back into
their communities after we'ye
cured theiri," said . Miss Brown
"The public does not readily
accept a child who has, been
mentally retarded. We should
remember that these people are
our neighbors and should be
given a helping hand. The pur
pose of this project is to help
our own people to better help
themselves."
As soon as the volunteers had
finished eating, the training
continued. A projector was
brought out and they were
shown a film about the people
they were setting out to help
The movie called "Harvest of
Shame"- was about the plight
of the migrant worker in the
United States. The volunteers
sat around the room and
listened attentively.
Late yesterday Gov. Terry
Sanford was scheduled to drop
in and say hello and express
his thanks to them. Last night
they were to combine business
with pleasure while a volunteer
worker taught them the basic
techniques of social game in
struction. meeting Jan. 13. Ken Fink, Presi
dent oi Graham Hall, will intro
duce the motion for election of
the residence college officers at
the MRC meeting.
Each pilot area will have a
governor of the college, a lieuten
ant governor, a secretary, a treas
urer, an intramural board, a
newspaper staff, and a local legis
lature composed of the top col
lege and residence hall officials.
Elections for these offices will
be held during the spring elec
tions on Feb. 12. '
The MRC will also vote on a
proposal to allot $200 to each
pilot area for social funds. Other
residence hall areas may receive
such an allotment if the MRC
passes a resolution for them.
fMedicare'
Passage
Foreseen
WASHINGTON (AP) A re-
vival and possible early deci-
sion of the titanic struggle
- over hospital care for the aged
' under social security took top
. billing Tuesday in the new 89th
'Congress. .
Backers of the so - called
'Medicare" bill figured their
' chances of putting it across this
year were excellent in view of
the Lyndon B. Johnson land
' slide. "
There was gloom among foes
" of the administration bill. One
"' said his side lost 33 House
- votes, Republican and ' Demo
'cratic, in the November elec
tion, and thereby lost a "sure
majority."
President Johnson, pressing
for a big package of measures
he said would lead eventually
to. "the great society," is plan
ning to send the first of his
special, detailed messages to
- Congress Thursday,
This will deal with health, and
officials said it probably would
include a health care plan, the
beginning of a "massive attack"
on such killer diseases as can
cer, heart attacks and strokes,
and steps to deal with mental
ailments.
Organized "senior citizens"
were rallying their lobbying
forces for the health care bill.
But the American Medical As
sociation, which regards the ad
ministration bill as a socialistic
interference with the doctor-patient
relationship, was not giv
ing up its opposition. It plans a
last-ditch struggle.
' "In rapid-fire order, Johnson
, will send to the Capitol next
Tuesday his aid - to - education
program; two days later his
plan for a new immigration law
"based on the work a man can
do and. not where he was born
or how he spells his name;"
and then, before the inaugura
tion Jan. 20, messages on space
and foreign aid.
Doubt arose, however, as to
how soon the Senate would be
able to get down to legislative
business. At a strategy meet
ing Tuesday, Southerners decid
ed on an all-out struggle against
a proposal to make it easier to
choke off filibusters. Sen. Rich
ard B. Russell (D-Ga.) said the
fight "could last "a couple of
months."
The "Great Society" program
outlined by the President in his
State of the Union message
Monday was more sweeping
than some had anticipated.
While many Congress members
applauded it, others asked
where the money is coming
from for what some termed this
"blueprint for paradise."
Costs will not be spelled out
until the budget for the next
fiscal year goes to Congress
later this month.

Whip Vows
To Combat
'Gag Rule
WASHINGTON l Sen. Fus
sell B. I,6ngD.-I.a.), the Sen
ate's new majority whip, lined
up with his southern colleagues
Tuesday to battle against
changing the rules so choking
off filibusters would be easier.
The move for a new rule that
wouid permit debate to bo
limited by a three-fifths major
ity of senators voting is !ein;
spearheaded . by Sen. Clinton I
Anderson (D.-N.M.. lie was the
senator who placed Long in
nomination Monday for whip,
or assistant Democratic lender.
At a meeting Tuesday in the
office of Sen. Richard IJ. Itus
sell (D.-Ga.) 15 southern sena
tors decided to wage an all-out
fight to preserve the present
rule under which a two-third ;
majority of senators voting is
required to cut olf debate.
Long said he realizes lie
might be criticized for attend
ing the meeting, after his elec
tion to a leadership post, but
he said that if he did not go, he
could not "be a moderating in
fluence." -'He said that, if he had been
invited, he also would have at
tended a meeting Sunday in
Anderson's office of a small,
bipartisan band of senators
pressing to tighten the present
anti-filibuster rule.
"I don't think it is a civil
rights question any more,"
Long said, adding it now has
been established that debate
limitations can be obtained on
a civil rights bill.
Last year's comprehensive
civil rights measure was passed
after a 15-week Senate battle
in which the two-thirds rule
was successfully invoked for
the first time to break a south
ern filibuster.
Russell also emphasized this
point in calling it "unfortunate
that southern senators have had
to take the initiative in pre
serving the rule of the Senate"
and preventing what he called
the imposition of "gag rule."
What the Dixie forces are
fighting for, he said, is "to pre
serve the integrity of the Sen
ate as a deliberate body and to
protect the rights of Senate
minorities whatever the issue
involved."
"I don't regard it as a south
ern fight at ail," Russell added.
The Georgian, longtime lead
er of the southern senators,
said the r forthcoming battle
"could last a couple of months."
Anderson plans to touch it
off today with introduction of
his ' proposed three-fifths rule.
Some ot the senators associated
with him will seek adoption of
a rule that would permit debate
to be cut off by a majority of
all members, or 51 of the 100
senators. o
Russell said it has been ar
gued in the past that civil
rights legislation couldn t be
passed under the present two
thirds rule but that "this policy
has been completely destroyed."
