FELLOWSHIP
Anaheim Teacher to Work in East Africa
Teachers for East Africa has a new member. He is William J. Conway of Anaheim, who for the past two years has been an instructor in business education at Fullerton Junior College.
Conway has received a fellowship from Columbia University, New York City, to spend two years in the so-called dark continent in an endeavor to make at least a part of Africa less dark intellectually.
He will join the group of 60 experienced teachers, 60 recent college graduates who majored in education and 40 graduates in other fields. He plans to take his wife and four children with him.
Sponsor of the two-year program is the International Cooperation Administration of the United States Government, known as the ICA and located peace corps plan, the program in Washington, D.C. Columbia University is administrating the program and the British Education Office is cooperating, since the countries of primary concern are still under British rule.
These East African countries are Uganda, Kenya and Tanganyika.
Teachers for East Africa plan, Conway applied in April and hoped for an appointment and fellowship for next year. He was surprised when he was accepted for this call for three weeks of orientation at Columbia University beginning June 26, leaving for East Africa by charter plane July 15, arrival in Campala, Uganda, two months of training at Makerere College, and assignment to a secondary boarding school or one of the two colleges in the three countries.
Then the job will be to train more high school graduates, for there is dire need for more primarily because Uganda, Tanganyika and Kenya are to receive their independence soon. Tanganyika, for example, is slated to become a nation of the world in December of this year.
It is expected that the African students that Conway and the others will help educate will then be ready for further training at colleges in Africa and elsewhere and to take over as teachers and government employees when their countries become independent nations.

Robert Radnitz, producer of the award-winning family movies "Dog of Flanders" and "Misty," today confirmed his participation in the Youth Films Foundation kick-off dinner to be held July 15 at 7:30 p.m. in the Disneyland Hotel.
The announcement was made by the organization's founder, Mrs. Hettie Dhyrenfurth, who revealed that arrangements are now being completed with other noted film and TV personalities for appearances.
Radnitz's "Dog of Flanders" was cited by the 1960 Venice Film Festival judges as the outstanding children's movie of that year, an honor which is most difficult to achieve.
Since the lack of suitable high-calibre family movie and television fare seems attributed to a loss of box office sales," the founder reported, "we are creating an organization to help improve the viewing for our children by making it profitable to produce worthwhile stories.
"Building patronage for good movies and TV entertainment will demand a well-organized group of civic, social and youth leaders and clergy volunteers to implement our group's objectives," said rs. Dhyrenfurth. Our work is intended to be purely constructive and positive in criticism and purpose."
"The kick-off dinner meeting, in addition to being a planning and discussion event for the exchange of ideas, will comprise a means of raising the initial funds needed to delay the cost of necessary work involved.
