Seminar Plans
Not Disrupted
Students and faculty included
in the Penn State Seminar which
will go to Europe this summer are
relieved to know that Marshal
Tito's recent visit to London was
not designed to disrupt peaceful
relations between Yugoslavia and
the West.
Although Tito is contemplating
the abolition of collectivistic
farms, according to William H.
Gray, professor of history and
leader of the tour, it is not likely
that this will interfere with the
schedule of the seminar, which
includes a visit to Zagreb, the an
cient university city of Yugo
slavia.
Gray added that several more
students and faculty can be ac
commodated in the group, and
those interested should contact
him. College credit will be given
for the tour this year since sev
eral weeks of residence at an
Austrian university will be in
cluded.
