No exams! Onlv the joy of learning. These are basic concepts to the FOLK'SCHOOLS in Denmark according to Dr. Perry Kelly in the WCU art department. In January Perry joined a group of fifteen Americans in an exchange study-tour of Danish folk schools. The tour was organized by the Extension Services of Berca College (Kentucky) but was hosted in Denmark by the Danish Gymnastic and Youth Organization (DDGU or De DANSKE GYMNASTIK OG UNGDOMSFOREN- INGER). In Denmark the tour members stayed in private homes throughout the country and traveled by ear, chartered bus and train to the various schools. According to Perry most Danes speak American English fluently and they see a lot of American television programs and movies. Perry said that it was in praise ol life and joy of being "of the folk" that the nineteenth century philosopher- educator N.F.S. (irundtvig established the Danish folk school movement. Perry said that according to Grundtvig "you must teach them (youth) to love life, even if it maybe doesn't become heller" and that one must learn to love life before one can learn. It was probably in this "joy of being" that Perry undertook this study-tour in mid-winter alter a vacation in Hawaii! He visited a craft-centered residential school for elder blind persons, an art school, a weaving school. a labor school, a gymnastics school and a butcher's school among many others. According to Perry the Danish folk high schools arc government supported but corporatcly owned schools The Only Thing Falling Faster Than This Old House Is David's Prices!

Open ^11 Day Wednesday which embrace a wide range of interests and the spectrum of philosophy. The schools (currently 87 of them) are for anyone above the age of 17 1/2 who wishes to learn. There are no textbooks, no exams, no grades' The usual length of a term is 5 1/2 months with summer workshops and seminars. The length ot stay is usually one term. . Perry said that every school begins the day with song most often sung from the national DDGU small songbook. According to Perry the trip was a complete success and very rewarding, if you don t think he is enthusiastic about Denmark, just give him a chance to talk about it.

Political footnotes From pace 1 Reagan, who had planned to come in second in Mass. and Vermont, was pleased with the result. The candidate most hurt by the Anderson vote was George Bush who had hoped to win big in Mass. and Vermont. Bush was able to collect only 22 percent of the vote in Vermont where you must receive at least 40 percent of the vote to win delegated automatically. Since no candidate received the required amount, the delegate votes will be decided on at a state party meeting. On the democrat side of the race, Senator Kennedy whipped President Carter soundly by a two to one or actually a little bit larger margin. Carter was hoping to keep the race close in the senator's home state hoping to force Kennedy out of the race, but it was to no avail. In Vermont the story was much different with Carter receiving 74 percent of the vote to Kennedy's 26 percent. It should be noted that although Carter won decisively there were no delegate votes involved. Also, only 32,000 people turned out for the vote. So what is the outcome of the Mass. and Vermont primaries? For the moment Bush will head into the South and supposedly Reagan territory with a slight lead. In the next week or so there will be primaries in South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, and Alabama where 139 delegate votes will be up for grabs. Carter will head into the South with a slight deficit in votes compared to Kennedy, but he is still in the position that he wants. Kennedy was unable to sweep the North and now he must face Carter in the President's backyard. Kennedy has all but conceded the South to Carter, stating that he hoped to obtain 25 percent of the vote. For John Connally, he has conceded the North since day one of the race and must make a strong showing in the South if he is to continue. For John Anderson, he is conced.ng he South letting Bush, Reagan and Connally 5S ■ °Ui wm°n8 themselves while he gears up in 21m if Wisconsin where his hopes have changed finishes P '" Cach face t0 2 flrst P'ace froiu'nartn0te^ "° dear trend on wh0 is the real often on th;ta?°ther *"* * bein8 Seen more and m<*e GeralTfo^T'o" SCfeen' that of former president or mL 5ihe RePublicans are split between two or more candidates, then Ford might step in On hoSTo iSiCh "'ft ^ Stated' "ff *« was an grouo i"n m8v^SS,b°nar,de ur8in8 *>* » broad-based ftateP haTT^ ' ?ld resP°nd."
