    Europe and Hawaii trips popular
Student travel packages available
Daydreams of exotic vacations grow in number and
detail as the summer approaches.
Students who want their dreams to come true should
begin making travel plans now if they want to find .the
best bargains. -
According to local travel agencies, trips to Europe and
Hawaii seem to he the most popular this year.
"Because regular airline rates were raised this April,
straight charters are most frequently used in travel to
Europe," said Debbie Rossman of Ask Mr. Foster, Calder
Way.
In this area, the Advance BoOking Charter (ABC) is
growing in popularity. The ABC provides transportation
only and you must book at least 50 days before departure.
However, it is usually the lowest in price.
"The ABC fare is relatively new," said, Ruth
Hollingsworth of University Travel, 139 S. Pugh St.
"People are just starting to get used to it and take ad
vantage of it," she added. ,
Caution is needed in booking a chartered fliglit, said a
representative of Centre for Travel, 114 S. Heister St.
There are restrictions with charters, especially involving
cancellations, she said. .
"You can often lose part or all of your deposit if you
cancel your flight," she said. "A way to avoid this is to
take out cancellation insurance which will guarantee the
return of your deposit in case of illness or for some other

When booking a charter, make sure you know what
your package includes. According to Rossman, most
packages cover your air fare, hotel expenses, trip
transfers from the airport to your hotel and either meals
or a sightseeing tour. ~
If meals are offered, he sure to know which ones they
are, as many deals include only breakfast and one other
meal. This will differ, however, with the time of year and
your destination.

APEX, your flight must be booked and paid at le'ast 60
days before departure.
At the University, Jim Foster is the APEX represen
tative for Holidair Limited. "In an APEX charter, the air
fare is set," Foster said. "The traveler decides where he
wants to go and I arrange hotel accommodations and rail
travel for him. No meals are included in the price," he
added.
Foster said that in the APEX package he sells, a
person leaves from either Boston or New York and can
arrive in any one of 51 European cities.
"One restriction with APEX is that a person can only
stay in Europe 14 to 45 days," he said. "This can turn into
a hassle when people really want to stay all summer:"

Rhodesia starts
black relocation
SALISBURY, Rhodesia
(UPI) Rhodesia said
yesterday it has begun an
operation to move 250,000
blacks from rural tribal lands
tp "protected villages." A
black leader denounced the
heavily guarded, fenced
compounds as "concentration
camps." '
"We're satisfied that
control of the population is
one of the keys to the suc
cessful cpnclusion of a
counterinsurgency war," a
security forces spokesman
said.
More than 17,000 blacks
from the Honde Valley in the
east, where a guerrilla in
filtration route enters
Rhodesia from Mozambique,
will be escorted to the villages
"within a matter of days;"
the spokesman said.
"We haven't had to resort
to press-ganging or forcible
move," the spokesman said.
"If somebody is being a bit
reluctant to move, it's a case

Nationalist leader Bishop
Abel Muzorewa said the
protected villages, which
recalled the "strategic
hamlets" program the United
States backed during the
Vietnamese War, were
"concentration camps."
The relocations, affecting
250,000 blacks throughout
Rhodesia, are designed to
deprive nationalist guerrillas
access to tribesmen who
might provide them with
food, information or recruits.
Seven villages, with an
average capacity of 2,500
people, are being created to

must build their own housing
