PAGE SIX Influence of Science Polities Discussed By KAY MILLS A new realism may be im posed on international politics through the influence of sci ence, Dr. Eugene I. Rabino wilcli, research professor of botany at the University of Illi nois, told an Alumni College meet ing at the Nittany Lion Inn re cently. In developing this realism through science, the world must attempt to stabilize the existing situation the best way possible to eliminate crisis possibilities, ltabi-| nowitch said. "This may not bo possible butj we must try," lie added. ‘‘Attempts to change the current situation aro unrealistic.

Struzhinskiy said that the ma terialistic thesis began with the ancient Greeks. With the de velopment of science, he said, it is now possible to explain all things from the theory of ma terialism. “We believe that all theoretical ideas must be proved by experi ment,” lie said. Discussing religion, Malin said that in his country religion is separate from the course of study. “Everybody can or cannot be lieve in God,” Struzhinskiy said.

He is now editor ol the "Bulletin of Atomic Scientists" of the Educational Foundation for Nuclear Science. Stabilization would be a step in preparing man for life in a world in which science has made war both unfeasible and unneces sary, he said. ‘‘Very soon the ca pacity to destroy the world com pletely will exist; there can be no winner then. ; ‘‘Science has showm that you do not have to fight over limited wealth but can create new wealth. is to tear down the wa'l between stration by a Peace Corps ( he is “at a loss” as to why Ken-. eoll P^ e ie American twist nedv allowed it to be built” in the led to a “singing, swinging first place.

UNIVERSITY PARK. PENNSYLVANIA Of course, you can’t suddenly say, ‘I won’t play the game any more —here are my weapons.’ Some want to continue.” Man has always relied upon war as the ultimate solution, Rabinowitch said. "However, we must consider the consequences. We must pay more attention to the facts of life, to what is good for all," he added. Science, knowing no national boundaries, is in a unique position to encourage world cooperation, he said. Scientists can most easily adapt to the new realism of con sidering war an impossible means of achieving one’s aims. The scientist creates new facts, Rabinowitch said, and so cannot understand the logic of past pow er politics. Agencies Aid Peace Corps This is the fifth in a series of articles explaining the various phases of the Peace Corps program. Private voluntary agencies and educational institutions have been and probably will continue cooperating with the Peace Corps in the training and selection of volunteers for the Corps projects. .Universities have been use for the training sites of almost all the Peace Corps projects to date. The choice of these sites, Corps officials said, depends on the availability of personnel needed to administer the project. Either the personnel are avail able or are assigned to that uni- versity for the project. A special course in selected Private agencies which admin- ister Peace Corps programs must problems in personnel rela meet standards set by the Peace u m b offered 0 f fered during Corps.

The volunteers also sang the Philippine national anthem for the Filipinos before the dancers left for their 31st stop in Wilkes- Barre on their world-wide tour. The National anthem, "Lupang Hinirang,” sung in Tagalog, the national language, was taught to the volunteers by Hazel Ramos, graduate student in sociology from the Philippines.
