there are many problems and many anxious moments surrounding the blaustein lecture series here many students and faculty donot realize the difficulties facing dr carey b joynt head of the department of international relations and dr jacob blaustein founder of the lecture series these two men must annually obtain people for lectures who are experienced in world politics dr joynt said this task is not an easy one for it is often undesirable to obtain a current policy maker because he rnav not be able to s|x>ak freely on matters pertinent to the world situation me continued therefore the lecturer obtained must be one who has just completed his term of office yet who has not so to i speak said what lie has to say further nlore he must lx physi cally ami mentally fit to handle the task tin blaustein lecture series demands more of a lecturer hut assures that his words will 1-enelit more than iust those who hear him personally t-ecauhetlie lecture is required to be pub lished another problem arises tie cause joynt said the people , we ask are busy with many demands on their time and energy after they have decided who will speak joynt and blauatein face the problem of establishing personal contacts with the de sired speaker " this can only be accomplished with the cooper ation of a large number of people often mr blaustein himself is very helpful because of his many acquaintances said joynt as the lecture series becomes established joynt hopes the problems will decrease we only hope that this successful lecture series will build a mom entum of its own and acquire prestige then ma vbe some of our difficulties would be to a lesser degree six students chosen for african program by peter littman six lehigh undergraduates have been chosen to represent the
