Happy People The people of Austria are pros- 4|rous and happy, according to ^•1 aud have many of the luxuries 'ft have back home. There are -*w poor people. "They do not Ike the idea of us Joeing here." he inrltes, "but accept it as the lesser ^two evils . . . us'or the Rus- *ians. And, since they can see irat-hand what "the Russians are 4ke, they prefer us. But you have io stop and think 1n order to feel flke these people fert. How would fen and dad and tjhe rest of the •Oiks think if there, were occupation troops at hom'4?" | Because he tries to put himself p the Austrians' shoes. Pel says |« tries, to practice more courtesy ltd be polite, helpful, and friendly in order to set a good exaftiple. Bat there's always someone who up." Pel goes on to say. Has Steak Dinner S "Saturday night I got hungry lK>ut 10 p.m. and three of us went a and ordered beefsteak, rare, "ranch fries, glassesvof wine, rolls nd a salad. The steak was thick Jtd juicy and everything was j xwd.

' Also be asks his folks to write lie TV program called 'Assembly' tnd ask this question: "As things Jtand now, will a guy be able to #e discharged in 17 months if he • in an overseas command, such |a Austria?" He adds. I only have 17 months to go and want to know what the score ia but I can't find jrot a darn thing over here. Wo Card For Father Pel apologizes for not sending dad a Father's Day. card, but j^dds there is no such thing in {jVastria.

La« Xerrftt Lhd Leo Hartog l>d On Friday 1 Mary Lou Merritt (editor of fhe Iprapeviiiei and Leo Hartog, Lake Mill 'Frtt University1 Nat Situ Steady Growth A free university' opened hi the U.S. sector of Berlin in IMS as a counter-measure against Russian dominated Under-den Linden university, has grown in student enrollments from 2300 students to 5,000 today. Twenty per cant of the students are sons and daughters of laborers and a quarter of the student body is comprised of women, a percent* age that would have bean inconceivable in pre-war Germany. When the western powers entered Berlin in 1945 they discovered that the Russians, who had arrived some months earlier, had already begun reorganization of Berlin university along Soviet lines. The U.S. education representative at that time proposed that the university should be properly placed under control of the Berlin city government so that all tour occupation powers would share control of the school. This was blocked by a Russian veto and the university opened in 1946 under Russian control. Communist professors were installed in key positions and the University was flooded with student pfrty-liners. When the majority of the students resisted Communist pressure, more direct methods were applied, six students were arrested and kidnapped in the spring of 1947. It was then that the Berlin city authorities decided to open a new free university in the western sectors of Berlin. Today 42 per cent of the students in the new University are refugees from the Soviet zone, nearly half ef the remaining students arerosm west Berlin with 5 per cent coming from western Germany and the rest from foreign countries. Law, medicine, philosophy and economic and social science make up the curriculum. MORE COMMITTEES?

In ridiculous denial of the law of gravity, by a sort of thrashing, clat* tering magic, the helicopter may be rewriting the future of army mobility in combat. " "Windmill . . . eggbeater .• . . puddle-jumping pogo stick," fighting men call it. There are other indiscriminate names ranging from "Hellico Peters" to "the Infuriated pakn tree." But literally hundreds of lives have been saved by the ungainly helicopter, serving as a Jack-of-allduty throughout the combat zone. IRSS than a dozen years after the first such contraption wobbled into the air in this country, the Army. Navy and Air Force can now say: "We have a flying jeep and a flying 2H-ton truck. We are working on a flying boxcar and a flying crane. None of these wili need roads or airfields. They can land anywhere, fly in any direction or stand slock-still in mid-air. Helicopters are tomorrow's flying mule trains." The helicopters being used in Korea are mainly of the "flying jeep" size. With their aid, hundreds of badly wounded soldiers, fliers downed in enemy territory, and encircled troops or patrols scouting behind enemy lines have been snatched to safety straight up into the skies. For ambulance service, alone, helicopters have won the ,name of guardian angel in Korea. ill ti ;V>.y.
