Mr. Greenwald, a Wilkes- Barre native, returned to his home area for a visit at the con- clusion of consultations in more than 25 foreign countries on behalf of United States initiatives to strengthen inter- national control of narcotic drugs. His lecture at Wyoming Seminary centered around the problems of international drug traffic. As he relaxes after his lecture with a cup of coffee, the 29-year- old bachelor explained that the State Department, which took the initiative, had less than one year to set up the drug project in some 25-30 countries. ‘Frankly, the traveling was a bonanza for me,” he admits with a smile, “but, of course, there is a fascination about seeing how foreign affairs work.” The highlight of his extensive Dr. Hugh Dickinson, director of theatre at the University of Illinois, has been. .invited to speak on theatre criticism at College Misericordia April 24, according to a spokesman for the college’s Cultural Events Committee..

Members of Explorers Engineering Post 38, Towanda, recently visited the engineering departments at the local campus where they had an opportunity to visit the labs and enjoy demonstrations by surveying program, mechanical engineering curriculum, and: the electrical The Post is ‘comprised of young students interested in exploring opportunities in the field of engineering. Wilkes-Barre Campus students jzed with students from other sChools in the area in the walk to help fight starvation in Bangladesh. The students were either walking themselves or sponsoring a walker.

Murphy, dean of student affairs, has returned from Denver, Colo. where he attended the National Association of Student Per- sonnel Administrators annual conference. The conference was for the purpose of updating administrators on student programs, activities problems and included both discussion and review of this year’s calendar of events. John J. Kelly, 622 Juniata Street, Lancaster, first year student in the mass com- munications broadcasting curriculum at the local campus, was recently appointed station manager of WHAY, the local campus’ broadcasting station. Kelly, who is residing at 223 Holly Street, while attending Wilkes-Barre Campus is a graduate of Lancaster Catholic High School, class of 1966. He “served four years with the Air Force and was honorably discharged with the rank of sergeant. Prior to his ap- pointment as station manager, “he served as news editor at the station. Tentative plans are being discussed for the establishment of an annual ‘Alumnus of the Year” award to be presented at the local campus graduation each year to a former graduate whose selection is based on his achievements and activities throughout the years following his graduation from Wilkes- Barre Campus. In order to qualify as a possible nominee, it is necessary that all graduates return their evaluation and information forms to the alumni desk at the local campus. A survey is presently un- derway to determine the whereabouts of early graduates and what they are doing at present. Local graduates who know the whereabouts of early graduates of the campus when it was located Wilkes-Barre are requested to contact the public information office at the campus in Lehman. work with the drug project was the moment when a protocol was signed with 43 other countries on the last day of a conference of the United Nations Commission on Nar- cotic Drugs held in Geneva, Switzerland. “There was no country or government that has not been cooperative. The drug problem is on the increase everywhere,” Mr. Greenwald notes. As just one example, he reviewed the steps Turkey has taken after many, many cen- turies to ban opium poppy growing. Although opium poppies were used for medicines, seeds and oil, a great portion was diverted to illicit traffic. Opium poppies can no longer be grown legally in Turkey. The protocol, or treaty, is ready to go to the Senate for ratification. With this ac- complishment, the State Department attorney looks forward to his next job. His latest assignment will take him to Berlin this coming year. For his contributions to United States diplomatic efforts to suppress illicit drug traffic, Mr. Greenwald recently was awarded the Department of State’s Superior Honor Medal. Would he like to reach the ambassadorial level? he was asked. This is probably the ultimate goal of State Department personnel, he comments, if they remain with the department. As for whether it is his goal, he refuses, with a slight shrug of shoulders, to be pinned down. He did take exams for foreign service three years ago. Mr. Greenwald, a 1960 cum laude graduate of Wyoming Seminary, attended Princeton University on a Woodrow Wilson fellowship. He graduated summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa, and also holds an LL.B. from Harvard Law School. He joined the State Department in 1969. Since that time, Atty. Greenwald has served in capacities with United Nations Affairs, and Near Eastern and South Asian Af- fairs, He was a member of the | United States delegation to the 24th United Nations General Assembly and has been an advisor to several international conferences.
