The boy working with him is one of the many UNC students : who volunteers his services weekly tutoring children of the Chapel Hill-Carrboro " Multir purpose Center. " The sctne is a typical one and can be very rewarding. - Students from- all phases of university life manage to give between three and five hours a week helping remedial learners with their school work. . : - The tutorial project has long had the support of the Chapel niil school system.- Superin dent of Schools William W. oay endorsed the program" and has spoken at many tutor onentation.meetings. The Multi-purpose Center, which was converted from the orthside Elementary School several. years ago, offers an after-school activity program open to mostly first through sixth graders, although my child is welcome. The majority are underprivledged children with either slight emotional problems- or remedial dif ficulties. -Tutors, however, do not have " to work with only younger children. They also have the choice of helping junior high or high - school students. They may work" with one, two or three -tutees, in or out of "the classroom and in any subject -they choose. ' " Bruce Lubman, an Pngifch major from Livingston, NJ., began as a tutor to fulfill an Education 71 requirement. "We could either have tutored or. written book reviews," Lubman said, "and since I enjoy working with children I chose to join the program. Now, it's not a re quirement for me, I . look forward to it every week." Lubman, who tutors four . Carrboro 4th graders each week, brings his pupils back to his fraternity house on campus where they can be in a more relaxed atmosphere. . The kids really enjoy com- -ing to the college " he said. "They have the opportunity to . get some of the attention in work and -play which may be lacking in their home lives." . Many of the children come fim overcrowded or broken homes and don't get some of the opportunities of other children their age. In a tutor ing session they not only get to brush up on their school work, but also have the chance to laugh and play in different sur roundings. The Multi-purpose Center provides the tutors with any necessary information con cerning their individual pupils. The center's facilities are always available, but many tutors take their children out, as Lubman does. Aside from . their school work, the children are taken to ; places which may be of some value later on. For example, -: the .y often visit the local libraries and are shown how to ; check out books. j The success of the tutorial : project is still increasing. There is, however, a great! need for more tutors. The tu-; torial office is open daily in; welcomes anyone who is in- .' Y-court and welcomes anyone , who is interested. If you have some spare time on your hands why not stop by. It may turn out to be. a rewarding exper- ience for both pupQ and teacher.

"It is a movement." After seven years of hard work and steady growth, the most significant manifestation of the persistence of this wave is the nearly 100,000 people in scores of countries who are engaged in volunteer work. Including the United States, 24 nations now "export' volunteers to work in other countries. The peace Corps didn't originate the idea of voluntary service, of course, but its suc cess has spurred the develop ment of similar programs. And its proficiency often serves as a model for the work of others. The Peace Corps' progress is impressive. As 1968 began, there were more than 12,000 Volunteers at work in 57 coun tires, an increase of 14 host countries in less than two years. But Peace Corps growth is more than a matter of numbers. It is also tone and stature. Most Volunteers work in health and agriculture pro jects, in community develop ment and as teachers. They all have one purpose: Working with host country officials, often been altered. Peace Corps officials, with . seven years of hard experience behind them, believe they have Corps a better idea of where Volunteers can be placed within these broad categories of work to be most effective.. Thus,;there is more emphasis, on teacher training. In many areas, Africa in particular, the agency expects to concentrate more heavily on food production. And a family planning program begun in India this past year is expected to be followed by requests to embark on similar projects in Latin America. these programs are essential because the problems they deal with are those that most directly affect the people: hunger, over-population and little chance of education or hope of self-improvement. The most profound revolutions in the world today have to do with these problems, and Peace Corps Volunteers are in volved in them on the basic, man-to-man level. In order to work more ef ficiently overseas, the Peace Corps tries continually to adapt that it might profit from its experiences. For example, recruiting in . colleges and "tell it like Training ex- Volunteers try to show people universities is done entirely by returned Volunteers who spend more time on campus. As peo ple who have gone through the experience of being a Volunteer, agency officials believe they are best able to how thev can improve their lives by using available resources, both in their coun try and within themselves.

Many more people with ex tensive overseas backgrounds, including former Volunteers, help train recruits. Peace Corps programs, which place Volunteers in specific jobs, are developed in much closer co-operation, with host country officials. As the agency gains greater insights into the countries in which it works and the extent of its own capabilities, officials feel it is better able to select jobs that more efficiently help the host country achitve its goals. The Volunteers have changed too. - They seem more sophisticated in their ap proach, born perhaps out of a time of more general conctrn with vital issues. Also, there is a greater opportunity today to learn about the Peace Corps. "So? says Mr. Vaughn, is on a basis of known periences, facts and realisitic descriptions that they make their judgment, and not some pTeconceived notion about what it might be like." Too, most Volunteers today are what the Peace Corps calls "A.B. generalists," liberal arts graduates who are intelligent and capable. Though they: are often without specific technical skills, with, intensive training they can become effective teachers and health and agriculture workers. They are expected to continue to be the majority of Volunteers. Once placed in a position " overseas, the Volunteer is given a great deal of freedom to work things out for himself. The Peace Corps has become a highly decentralized organiza tion, with most major decisions made by host country officials and Volunteers overseas. One of the few restrictions is the precept that 'Volunteers not become involved in the political affairs of the host country.' Volunteers are urged to con sider how an act may affect their work, as well as the ef fectiveness of the Peace Corps itself. An expected consequence of the Peace Corps bore fruit in . the summer of 1967 when returned Volunteers for the first time outnumbered those in the field. It still is too early to assess their impact in this country, but the Peace Corps believes that their experience sense . of-, responsibility and deep commitment to serving others will have a profound ef fect. "It. is a movement whose hallmark is service," says Mr. Vaughn. "It is not a movement that is concerned with material gain or economic matters, but is more of the soul and the . spirit." , .
