Bavarian Officials Set
To Speak in St. Roberts
On April 5, at 11:10 a.m. Dr. Emil Kroher Chief of the
Bavarian State Agency for Political Education will address
the faculty, students and visitors in St. Robert's Auditorium.
After being released from an American prisoner of war
camp in 1946, Dr. Kroher attended the University of Munich
where he studied philosophy, psy-3> — - — — — - — —
chology, and history, securing his
Ph.D. in Political Education.
Later he did graduate work in
political science and sociology,
and worked as a journalist for
various newspapers. In 1952 he
joined the Service Center for
Political education, and in 1958
became Chief of the Bavarian
State Agency. This agency has the
task of inspiring, promoting, and
sponsoring the education of the
German people to become respon¬
sible citizens in a democratic na¬
tion, both in the field of schools
and well as adult education. In
performing this task, considerable
emphasis is placed on recent Ger¬
man history.
_ STUDIES AT HARVARD
In 1957 Dr. Kroher was invited
to Harvard University to complete
his studies and to participate in
the International Seminar. Pres¬
ently he lectures at the Munich
Academy oL Political Education
and has written several textbooks
on political and historical sub¬
jects, conducting many seminars
for teachers.
Dr. Kroher is presently on a
tour which he will address audi¬
ences at Gonzaga University, the
University of Oregon, Sacramento
State College, Golden Gate Col¬
lege, the University of Pacific,
Fresno. State College, and Long
Beach State College.
POLITICAL EDUCATION
In view of the fact that the
continued success of the German
Federal Republic in democratic
government rests in great meas¬
ure on the political education of
the German people, the import¬
ance of Dr. Kroher’s visit and of
his subject matter for lectures
should stimulate much curiosity
among students and faculty alike.
Dr. Kroher is a Roman Catho¬
lic, and speaks fluent and collo¬
quial English.

F.L.F. Awards WIN WILSON
Coming Soon IFFII OWSHIP
Only two days remain for stu¬
dents to turn in their master¬
pieces of expository writing for
this year’s renewal of the Forest
Lawn Foundation Writing Awards
contest. As yet, only a select num¬
ber of students have shown in¬
terest in winning money up to a
cash value of $1100. These inter¬
ested in joining the group are in¬
vited to let Dr. Mitchell know
about it in the next few days.
In the past, Loyola’s students
have fared well, both artistically
and monetarily, in the high-calibre
writing series. Last year, Loyola's
Dave Ralston won the intercolle¬
giate nomination for writer of the
year for his seminar paper on the
Cuban situation. The paper was
reprinted in the Los Angeles Ex¬
aminer as a feature editorial, long
before an exact fulfillment of Ral¬
ston’s prophecy came about
through President Kennedy’s cri¬
sis-shattering blockade of the Ca¬
ribbean island stockade.
Loyola hopes that a Del Rey
student can do this again this
year, especially with the general
quality of writing on the other
competing campus, having slump¬
ed to an even lower ebb than in
past years.
