FRI., APR., 26, 1968- PLAINDEALER - PG. 5 NEW LAMPS FOR OLD With the increasing emphasis on international studies, American students, who lead all other nations in attendance at Italian universities, are expected to flock to the ancient schools of that ancient land in greater number this year than ever. Italian universities traditionally have been hospitable to foreigners. The University of Padua, where Galileo once taught, was also the alma mater of the great English 16th Century physician William Harvey, who discovered the circulation of the blood. Oliver Goldsmith also studied there. Bologna University, called the Mother of Universities, claims for its law school that its curriculum stems directly from the ancient Romans, who were great ones for legal framing. Thomas av Becket was a distinguished alumnus. The school at Perugia, which has perhaps the most ambitious "U.niversita per gli Stranieri," (university for foreigners) was officially created in 1276, but legend has it that citizens of ancient Rome traveled to the onetime Etruscan city to study augury. The art is no longer taught there, but Roman history and Latin are. All are delightful medieval cities, repaying the sightseer as well as the student. % l@u Bologna--Mother of Universities §1 Medieval classroom--Padua school for Foreigners--Perugia RINGWOOD NEWS DOLORES BRENNAN 653-9045 HOLD ANNUAL CARD PARTY FOR CEMETERY BENEFIT On Thursday, May 2, the Ringwood cemetery society will» hold its annual spring card party in the Ringwood school at 8 p.m. Here's"your chance to spend an enjoyable evening playing cards with your friends and neighbors.

Bergstrom, superintendent of McHenry public schools, has been appointed as chairman of a North Central association visiting committee to study school buildings. This committee is currently studying the high school building and grounds at Mundelein in the Libertyville- Fremont high school District No. 120. The evaluation of the school will list from April 23 to April 26. The visiting committee evaluates a building on five basic points. First, the buildings must provide adequate facilities for the total educational needs of the youth it serves. Second, the safety of the students and staff should be considered in the general planning of the building. Third, the building should show consideration for future enrollment and program needs. Fourth, the building should be clean, attractive and esthetic. And last, the building should be an integral part of the community program. The North Central association evaluates school buildings onthese guidelines every four years.

They will be shown at 6 a.m. daily on Channel 5. The series covers such topics as "Unseen Hazards", "It Won't Happen To May Child", and "Water Seems Friendly".
