in INDGALER iiHifilBWUtt Stage U.N. Forum STAFF PHOTOS/WAYNE GAYLOR The condemnation of DDT and the number of maritime miles a country should maintain are rarely subjects in an American history class, but the American Studies classes from East and West campuses recently took the time to discuss these and other world problems. Students in the classes acted as delegates from 50 countries and participated in a combined East-West campus mock United Nations assembly. Debbie Mortell, Colette Wipper, Sue Smith and Sue Schmitt were elected by students to direct the presentation and discussion of members' proposals. The 46 bills presented were previously voted on in the three special committees: economics, social and political. Many other controversial issues were presented, in- cluding establishing Cam­ bodia as a free nation, the investigation of acid rain, to remove the embargo on Russia, the return of the Shah's wealth, Cuban troops in Africa, the agricultural problems of developing n a t i o n s , i m p r o v i n g educational standards in Third World countries and the peaceful use of nuclear energy. Faculty sponsors for the event from East campus were Gloria Burke and tlary Gray. From West campus, they were Bill Day and Jim Blum. Signs were made and several delegates appeared in the dress of the countries they represented. The mock UN presentation was visited by many schools and was regarded as a valuable experience for all who participated. Cuban delegation rests after defending its troops in Africa. Delegates are Mary Murray and Karen Thietje. Officers Keith Belxer, Sue Smith, Debbie Mortell, Collette Wipper and teacher James Btam record vote.
