The stuoent muni reimburse

sharing of money, however, as
the student keeps all profits.
Fourteen beef projects were com¬

year.
Crop projects are Included in
the "70-30" program. Foletta
said. Students are allowed to use
college land for their cotton and
other crops. The foundation pays
all costs, the crop is fast-vested,
the foundation takes 30 per cent
of the gross receipts and the stu.

Student out of the larger amount,

said Foletta. "and the experience
gained from these projects Is

Student body president Jerry
Tahajian makes the following
public statement concerning tbe
disappearance of the Fresno
State College mascot:
"Why the mascot stunt?
"Through all Intent and pur¬
pose lt was a gag to arouse stu¬
dent Interest In the Whit worth
game and thus stimulate student
support for oar team.
Good Intentions
"The original objective was
good, but here are some unfore¬
seen difficulties which brought
disrepute to the Incident.
"First, and In my estimation
the most prominent, is the fact
that only one firm, of the many
communications outlets in Free-
no. were 'In the know.' This was
unfavorable for several reasons.
Publicity Gag Ilackfired
"Firstly, it meant that this one
firm profited through listener
and reader appeal, and this, an
advertising advantage accrued
which other outlets could not
match. This in turn has resulted
In a loss of good will for the col¬
lege from these other communi¬
cations outlets. Strong personal
relations have now been weak¬
ened between the college and
thos.i   not   knowing,
"I am not going into the how
or why of the Incident. Tonight's
student executive board will con¬
duct a hearing on the matter SO
that those concerned will be able
to testify to the facts at one
time. The Collegian will report
those facts; until that time there
is no reason for speculation.
niiune Acknowledged
"I learned of those Involved
In the Incident after lt occurred.
1 uTter no excuse for my personal
action. I must say It is not a
pleasant feeling to evade, hedge.
and on occasion to categorically
deny any knowledge, when Just
the opposite was true.

learn and mature at such a fioavy

Through the United States
Agency for International Develop¬

bers are In the African nation to
help improve tbe . quality and
quantity of elementary education
programs there.
Begun last year at the request
of tbe Sudan government, a two

fessor
Askedlto explain the program
and howjll works, Dr. Masks said
that thefsudan wants to improve
its edu ration program and par¬
ticular!* to train their own
people lo teach.
"We'Je helping to teach toach-
teli," he explained.
FSC was chosen, to

I think," he confided. "FSC la
recognized as a good teacher
training college."
The former Hanford superin¬
tendent of schools stressed that
the entire program Is an effort
to Improve the teacher-training
program.
"It includes aspects of training
agriculture and home economics
personnel and elementary teach¬
er training," he added.
Dr. Meeks stated that "It ap¬
pears now that tbe contract proj¬
ect will be extended." He was
unable to definitely state how
much longer tbe contract would
be extended or which faculty
members would remain.
Heading the team of eons alt an t-
technicians In the Sudan Is Dr.
Raymond H.  Harrison, professor
of school administration and chief
of the parly.
He is stationed lu Khartoum,
the capital of the country and the
nerve center of the educational
project.
The professor administers the
program that FSC contracted to
do.
Dr. Meeks. wbo maintains the
home base and conducts the of¬
fice at tbe Extension Center at
the University Ave. Campus, said
tbst his office serves as a "back
stopping agency to get supplies
to the project, to serve as a liai¬
son between Washington and the
project, snd to keep accounts of
expenditures." r
