This column was left by the
wayside last week in favor of an
editorial—or this comment would
have appeared then.
It is to the eternal credit of the
students, their parents and the
Hardin schools that there are not
one, but two boys, from the HHS
class of 1962 who are finalists in
the National Merit examinations.
It is my firm conviction that it
takes good teachers and interested
parents to motivate even the most
able and ambitious of our boys
and girls. True, there must be
good material to work on.
There’s a special something
about youth who earn scholastic
honors. It is a thirst for know
ledge—a sort of driving curiosity
that won’t let the scholar rest
until he’s gone just a little farther
than the rank and file It’s a
pretty special trait—and it has one
distinct advantage. As long as
there are books and other sources
of information, this kind of person

is never bored.
Whether or not Jim Fox and
Gary Sperline win National Merit
scholarship, they have proved to
their own satisfaction that they
have extra-special capabilities. I
rather suspect Hardin will have
reason to be proud of them in the
future.
Lodge Grass got a special com
plement for being full of wonderful
people last week. Hardin can,
easily get in on the act—and I’m
rather ashamed of myself that I
didn't make a suggestion along
this line earlier.
It seems that families in Lodge
Grass are entertaining a group of
foreign students from Bozeman
during the brief vacation between
the winter and spring quarters in
mid-March. Nyunt Maung. a for
eign student himself, who is teach
ing English at Lodge Grass high
school, made some of the arrange
ments. but he got excellent co
operation from his Lodge Grass
neighbors
After Maung's talk at the Hardin
P-TA meeting last week, it was
suggested that maybe some Har
din civic organization or church
could arrange for this kind of |
thing in Hardin. I suspect they j
could—but why limit it. Everyone
should have a chance to get in
on it.
The Tribune - Herald will be
happy to act as a clearing house
and HMP is perfectly willing to be
the first volunteer.
There very likely is not time
for us to play host to a group of
foreign students between the win
ter and spring quarters, but there
should be an excellent opportunity
at the end of the spring quarter—
for many of the foreign students
will attend the summer session. 1

and will have some time on their
hands. It’s a nice time of the
year to visit and to have visitors
in this part of the country then,
too.
Will anyone in the Hardin area
please write to the Tribune-Herald
if you’d like to get better ac
quainted with some foreign stu
dents? If you’re interested in a
certain part of the world, you
might so indicate. You should
also state how many guests you’d
like to have, and for how long,
and whether you prefer boys or
girls. There are considerably
more male students from other
nations enrolled in our colleges
On the basis of the opportunity
I have had to get acquainted with
a few foreign students rather
briefly in the last couple of years,
1 can assure everyone that it is
a really rewarding experience.
You’ll be amazed at how well
informed about international as
fairs our youth visitors from for
eign countries are.
You also may be a little surpris
ed at the impressions some of
them have gotten of America.
This applies particularly to those
who have not had much chance tu ,
get acquainted with people ex- 1
cept on college campuses, which i
after all are little worlds in them
selves.
There are many of these intelli
gent and sensitive y out h from
other lands who have not seen our
country. nor experienced our hos
pitality nor our genuine interest in *
them
I'm betting on Hardinites and i
others in this vicinity. If I’ve I
made a bad bet. we ll see if one |
of our organizations or churches j
wants to try to do the job. It j
isn't really anything that needs to |
be organized I’ll pass your in
vi rations along to the proper;
authorities. We ll start with Boze
man and if there are extra hosts j
and hostesses, we'll inquire at |
Eastern in Billings about foreign
students or invite some from Mis
; oula. which has a plentiful supply. ;

I Business leaders
urged to attend
citizens' Aircade
B'g Horn county business lead
ers were urged this week to make
plans now to attend the U. S
Chamber of Commerce Aircade for
Citizenship Action in Billings on
Thursday. Mar 15.
Local sponsor for the session
is the Billings Chamber of Com
merce.
The Aircade is composed of a
group of business leaders from
throughout the nation.
Among the topics to be discuss
ed are business prospects for the
future and legislation affecting
business, such as agricultural
controls and subsidies, taxation,
medical care for the aged, federal
aid for education, unemployment
compensation, postal r a t e > and
many others.
Special emphasis will be placed
on what business people can do
about these legislative proposals.
Richard Wagner, president of
the U. S Chamber of Commerce,
says more than 45.000 business
men and other citizens have at
tended 6u Aircade meetings since
they were organized by the Na
tional Chamber in 1957. There
will be meetings in 15 key cities,
instead of the 12 held in each of
the past five years.
Those who plan to attend are
urged to register now. The re
gistriation fee includes a luncheon
as well as the meetings them
selves.
Further information may be ob
tained from E. O. Preston, secre
tary manager of the Big Hom
County Chamber of Commerce.
