Asian Trip
230
Manilla, Philippines
Feb. 13 Left Hong Kong at 8:45 p.m., Thai jet
flight # 702 to Manila. Arrived in Manila
at 9:20 p.m. but did not get to my hotel
until after 11:00 p.m. because airport bus
was held up waiting for an international
skating troop, "Holiday on Ice".
Feb. 14 At 8:30 a.m. Mr. Generoso J. Gel, Jr
(pronounced Gell), of the program staff
of the Asia Foundation (L & S Bldg., 1414
Dewey Blvd., Manila) arrived to inform
me that my cable had been received and a
schedule prepared. Mr. Judge, the representative,
however, was getting married and I would
be cared for by Gel.
We went first to the Philippine Normal
College where I met a group of science
instructors and the head of the Normal
College Natural Science Dept. The school is
a State College. The following persons present
have requested copies of "guidelines": Mrs.
