"This experiment is founded upon the desire to have the American people better informed through their own representatives about actual conditions in the areas under Chinese Communist control," the Department stated. "It does not change the basic policy of the United States toward communism in China.

Generally speaking, it is still not consistent with United States policy, or lawful, that there be travel by Americans to areas of China now under Communist control." However, it staled, "new factors have come into the picture, making it desirable that additional information" be given "to the American people" about conditions in China.

"That kind of a setting affords a real opportunity" to tackle the knotty problem of the differing educational needs of men and women. "Women's role in our culture is quite different from a man's." Spragens said, and in the past educators have "fumbled" in preparing women fur that role. lie plans to continue Centre's present policy of de-emphasized athletics.
