Exchange Student
Speaks At BPW
Club Meeting
“People in Italy have many
misconceptions of life in the
United States, most of them
received from movies,’’ Nellc
Paterlini, exchange student,
told the Business and Profes-
sional Women’s Club at a World
Friendship program Monday
evening in the War Memorial
Building.
The program was arranged by
Mrs. A. W. Dills, international
relations chairman, who intro-
duced the speaker.
Paterlini who was 17 Febru-
ary 1 is staying in the home of
Mr. and Mrs. M. C. Davis. He
is an honor -student of the senior
class and is to be initiated into
the National Honor Society.
He plans on a career in min-
ing engineering, which will ner
cessitate seven years of specia-
lized study, after completing his
high schoo work. The exchange
student came to the United
States August 4, told of his first
impressions of the country and
of the predicaments in which
he found himse^ because ol
the difference in customs. He
had studied English for three
years under a private tutor,
but many of the colloquialisms
of the area were confusing.
He told of the schools in Italy,
which are not too widely at-
tended. In the primary school
are five years of study, the ele-
mentary, three, and in high
school five. All students pay
tuition and for their own books.
Most people finish only primary
school and consequently can do
only manual labor.
“Italian people are the poor-
est educated in Europe, but
when they have a little educa-
tion consider themselves too
good for manual labor, and are
an easy prey for communistic
activities,” Paterlini said.

RESOLUTION
WHEREAS:

arlini lives at Parma, the home
of Parmesan cheese, the people
are more prosperous, making
their livelihood from farms and
industries, but in southern Italy
they depend principaly on tour-
ist trade, and their standard of
living is not so high. The com-
munist party is more active
there, for the uneducated do not
know what communism means,
but do know that communistic
promises are good.
He compared schools, churchs,
mode of living, farming me-
thods, modes of transportation,
climate and answered all ques-
tions osked by the group. He
stated that youth in Italy were
no longer Italian but America-
nized. That 70 percent of the
movies were American and 50
percent western.
At a social hour regreshments
were served to more than 50
guests from a table decorated
by Miss Thelma’ Holman with a
World Friendship theme. A
globe was surrounded by a
gold fence and dolls of all na-
tionalities were displayed. The
dolls were collected by Mrs'. J.

pledged to match the producer-
raised funds in this all import-
ant program. “I wish to thank
all of those workers who have

campaign and those who have
made their contributions,”
Tucker said. “The screwworm
eradication program is a reality
and is evidence of what group
action can accomplish.” he

Sure hope you enjoy this little column we intend
to bring to you each week and, although we plan
to touch many, many subjects in which the automo-
bile is the principal subject, you can anticipate our
touching on many other tales of the hi-ways and by-
ways in this, our column, “WHEELING” ....
There are many cars that have stirred men’s souls
in the more than half a century of automobile his-
tory . . . Tens of thousands of cars have been de-
signed, but ouly an elite few will always be remem-
| bered.....Cherished chariots that struck fire in
the hearts of men ....
Among these were the great power gliders of the
race tracks —high wheeled, hard riding and brass
bright, their gaudy guts growling the with power, big
engines spewing the magic perfume of castor oil . . .
These were the giants of the road .... The stuff a
man’s dreams are made of . .
Next week we’re going back to 1916 and the Pierce
Arrow . . .
