ALIENS LIVE AT NEW INTERNATIONAL HOUSE

Group Rented House in Summer Where Americans Live, Eat Together With Refugees

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

For the first time this year a group of foreign students, several of them refugees, and many Americans are living at the International Club at 5 Divinity Avenue.

Rented from the University the International Club House was financed through the cooperative efforts of the students who are living there now and the aid of Phillips Brooks House. In the House live two Chinese, two Philippine Islanders, two Czecho-Slovakians, one Spaniard, three Germans, one Austrian, and 10 Americans. Four of the foreigners hold scholarships financed by the funds which were raised by the undergraduate body last year.

Club members eat in the House along with some fifteen other students. Jacob Hagopian '39, who first thought of the idea of a Harvard International House, is president of the club, while Amando d'Alisay 2G and Roger Schafer '41 are members of the board of directors.
