Harness Racing Commission, and Counsel General Edward Friedman, number two man in the justice de partment. If they don't quit, Casey Gov. Shafer should fire them. Fogel was cleared last month by Atty. Gen. William C.

Informed * Sennett Just last 'tuesday, Casey acting as auditor general wrote Sennett, informing him of other instances where Fogel represented a corporate client in a tax cash involving the state. At that' New A pilot program to train a new breed of rural leaders, not in isolation of urban, national or international prob lems, but in full awareness of them, will begin this Spring at the University. Based on the principle that world problems such as poverty and hunger can be solved only through an under standing of the interdependence of men, regardless of where they live, the five-year program will be carried out under a 5500,000 grant from the W. K. Kellogg Foundation. It will be designed for young adult rural leaders as well as college students, with the philosophies and prac tices developed through the program expected to become a permanent part of the University's educational activities. In announcing the program, R. E. Larson of the Col lege of Agriculture said young agricultural leaders will be taken into cities and into the underdeveloped nations "to develop an appreciation for the interdependence of men, regardless of where they live. The knowledge they gain, we believe, will make them more effective rural leaders," Larson added. "Problems of rural America are not as well-identified as those of urban areas and are of different origin, but in the long run they may be just as serious and difficult of solution." according to Larson. "Surely, the economic health and social vitality of that portion of the nation pro ducing all its food and fiber and its mineral and other natural resources is a vital national concern. Effective leadership requires a broad understanding of general eco nomic and social questions facing the nation as a whole, • and an ability to share in their solution." The program was developed by a six-man team repre senting the Department of Agricultural Economics and Rural Sociology and the Cooperative Extension Service, both in the College of Agriculture. A prospectus prepared by the group notes that "rural people, in common with other citizens, face complex and increasingly crucial issues about the kind of society the nation will have in the future. The experience, information and traditions of rural people do not well equip them to make reasoned judgments about such problems or to exer cise leadership in their solution, for the problems often have industrial or urban roots, require knowledge and skills not part of (their) background or involve judgments seldom explicitly examined. The likely outcome . . . is that farmers and other rural citizens will not be nearly as effective as they might be in guiding future farm and rural developments along paths satisfying to them, and they may have little voice in resolving national issues important to everyone." • Emphasis. the prospectus points out, will be given tO bringing about change without disrupting the system of being rejected by it. Paradoxically, as colleges of agriculture have devel oped an increasingly strong scientific base, they have tended to become narrower in their teaching. The result has been to develop more highly proficient specialists, but the increasing rigors of the program have left students less time to develop attitudes and knowledges about broad so cial and economic problems. To correct this situation, the first part of the program will be a new course in the Department of Agricultural Economics and Rural Sociology, on critical issues, such as poverty in the United States, inadequacy of community services in rural areas and the paradox of, food surpluses in the face of hunger in much of the world. Three-fourths of. the students will be from the College of Agriculture; the .remaining fourth will be from the so cial sciences in other parts of the University to provide different points of view. The course will seek to instill in, students a concern for social and economic problems.. an intellectual under standing of them and a sense of personal obligation toward their solution. A special effort will be made to seek support from student advisers in all departments of the College of Agri- SIGMA NU PHI KAPPA PSI SORRY, CLOSED INVITED GUESTS ONLY! time, Casey did not suggest any puni him .to be removed from his state job tive action for Fogel. if he refuses tq resign," Casey said.

That client was Captain Inter national Industries, Inc., of Mont gomeryville, which applied for—and was granted—permission to place liquor vending machines in hotel and motel rooms. The corporate client cited by Casey was a Philadelphia-based life insur ance firm. The candidate also urged Shafer to make a full-scale investigation to insure that other commonwealth attorneys are not engaged in activities similar to Fogel's.

The second part of the program will be concerned with promising young leaders of high potential in the 20 to 35 year age bracket, about half of whom will be in agriculture and the remainder in other rural occupations. Each year for the next three years, 105 young adults will be brought into the program for 20-day training peri ods divided into five or six work sessions. At the end of the year, a third of the group will be selected for two years' additional training and education. This program has a six-part objective: —to develop increased knowledge and understanding of economic and social changes affecting agriculture and rural areas; —to develop a greater sensitivity to the needs and as pirations of other groups in society; —to improve understanding of social organizations and the processes by which groups make and implement decisions: —to develop means and qualities of leadership by in dividuals: —to develop greater understanding of leading national and international issues, and —to evaluate alternative solutions to problems facing agriculture and rural society. In the first year of the program, each person will re ceive 18 to 20 days of instruction in four to six sessions. Since this will be a terminal program for two-thirds of the participants, it will be concerned with informing partici pants of the general objectives of the program. with par ticular emphasis on the problems affecting the rural popu lation. The second year of the program will emphasize local problems, community development, poverty, law and order, housing and related topics. Field trips to urban areas. Appalachia and Washington will give participants a chance to observe poverty programs and community de velopment programs in action and to discuss them with members of the legislative and executive branches of the Federal governmnt. The third year of the program will concentrate on na tional and international issues and Will include a field trip of 10 to 14 days to Latin America. Emphasis will be on pro viding an understanding of the views of other groups in the national and world society. In the study sessions of the program, representatives, of business, labor, minority groups and foreign countries will lead formal and informal discussions. announce their T R' .:•.'_a .
