Cargill Discusses Abbot A Museum of Modern Art dis-play of 15 photographs by Berenice Abbott, leading American photo-grapher, will be on display in the Student Centre until Thursday, March 10. Chairman of the State Teachers College News Bureau Drury H. Cargill discussed Miss Abbott's work in the Student Centre last Friday. Noted for her realism in photo-graphy, Berenice Abbott, a devotee of the view camera, devised her own special equipment and envolv-ed new techniques and processes. Her photographs of New York City are precise and literal; the person-al and human quality of her seeing gives them a rare aliveness and significant reality of the external world. An instructor at the New York School for Social Research since 1934, Miss Abbott's work has ap-peared in many well-known Ameri-can periodicals including Life, Vo-gue, Fortune. Among her books are: Changing New York; A Guide to Better Photography; The View Camera Made Simple. She has re-cently provided the illustrations for Greenwich Village, Today and Yesterday.

Friday, February 25, 1955 Commission Announces Many WUS Activities Co-commissioners of the World Relatedness Commission of the Stu-dent Christian Association Audrey Bortner and Ann Frush announced a host of activities in connection with the World University Service (WUS) which will begin Monday and will end March 4 with the annual barn dance and bazaar. The purpose of the WUS drive is to help foreign students to receive an education, either by actually send-ing a foreign student to college; or by helping to build foreign univer-sities. Since this fosters good will every college in the United States takes part in this activity which has become an annual event. Last year Towson, with a population of approximately 1,000 students gave only $250 while Albright College in Reading Pa. with only 500 students gave approximately $1,000. The International Relations Club held a WUS night last night in the dormitories. They sold their labor by doing ""odd jobs"", such as polish-ing shoes and cleaning windows. Personal solicitations through en-velopes received in one's mail box will be made, which will result in the competition between the dormi-tories. The goal for each dorm is $250. Definite dates have not been dis-closed yet, but the faculty will hold an auction. Things typical of their personality or the course they in-struct will be auctioned. No one will want to miss this event. WUS buttons will be sold for 25 cents by the IRC and a door prize will be given at the climaxing event, the barn dance and bazaar.
