Helping to promote thispurpose were foreign students from IndianaUniversity who discussed the customs and beliefs of their countries with the club members,and townspeople who led discusssions andshowed pictures about countries through whichthey had traveled. One very interesting guestspeaker was Rebecca Bryant, a B.H.S. senior,who told the club of her unforgettable trip tothe United Nations headquarters in New YorkCity last October. The club members also viewedtwo movies which showed the United Nations inaction through the WTorld Health Organizationand the technical assistance program.An unusual feature of the club is the fact thatit does not charge a membership fee. The onlyrequirements for membership are an interest incurrent events and a desire to learn about foreign lands and people.
