By STEVEN SHAER
In 1977, there was enough grain
produced in the world to fill every per-
son's daily nutritional needs, yet an-
nually over 450 million people die from
malnutrition, according to the Commit-
tee Concerned with World Hunger.
To inform the public of the
malnutrition crisis, the committee is
sponsoring a four-day program
featuring various speakers and films
beginning this Monday. The program
will conclude Thursday with par-
ticipants fasting and donating the
money they did not spend on food to the
committee.
COMMITTEE member Myra Isaacs
said the goal of the program is to show
University students that hunger exists
throughout the world, and that "even in
Detroit, hunger is inevitable for the.
people." She said the committee will,
contribute the funds to Oxfam-

America, a non-profit organization that
sends contributions directly to coun-
tries with self-development programs.
"We are concerned with ending world
hunger. Our primary goal abroad is to
assist development in rural areas
where the hungry live," said Joseph
Short, executive director for Oxfam-
America.
According to Short, Oxfam-America
is attempting to create support
throughout the United States for aiding
underdeveloped countries through self-
help organization. "There is a national
program involving groups in the United
States helping spread the word about
the hunger problem," Short said.
THE COMMITTEE is one of 1,200
groups involved in this program. The
committee was formed at the Univer-
sity around five weeks ago out of the
"frustration of a professor here who
wished to inform students about the
hunger problem," Isaacs said.

Isaacs asserted that there is a "myth
that exists where people believe that
countries are underdeveloped due to
the lack of resources, ignorance, and
over-population. The real reason is that
developed countries have stagnated the
growth of underdeveloped countries by
having the natives grow non-edible
crops such as tobacco and sugar.
"Our group will show that these
people can become self-sufficient,"
Isaacs said.
The committee maintains that with
the unequal distribution of resources,
the developed countries of the world
consume 60 per cent of the world's food
resources but comprise only six per,
cent of the world's population.rs
The committee plans to cover such'
topics as hunger in Detroit, U.S. foreign
aid and health in Colombia, and
nutrition policy and programs. All ac-
tivities will be held at the School of
Public Health, except a "break-the-
fast-potluck" at Campus Chapel.

LSA appoints new committee to
review state of honors program
(Continued from Page 1)

in "getting around" University
academic requirements.
English Professor and Honors
counselor Bert Hornback responding to
the survey question said, "The Honors
Council tries to help students achieve
educational goals. Sometimes this
means extraordinary fulfillment of
requirements.

"In my ten years as an honors
counselor, I have never seen a student
graduate without meeting all
requirements. I have often seen
students fulfill more than the
requirements."
The committee has several options
open to it other than recommending
elimination of the program.

"The cancellation option is very
benign," Jacobson said. "We could
even recommend a 50 per cent increase'
in the honors council budget, but I
believe we are not likely to be at either'
extreme."
The committee's final
recommendation is expected in'
January.

LSA-SG hopefuls set for race
(Continued from Page 1)

However, other presidential-vice-
presidential slates may be added to the
ballot. Current LSA-SG President, Dick
Brazee promised to bring the matter
before the council at its next meeting
this Wednesday night,
"It is our sense on council that we
would like some opposition on the
ballot. We'd like to promote com-
petition," Brazee said.
Stechuk, who said he would run "an
aggressive, all-out campaign no matter
what," is in favor of allowing other
candidates on the ballot.
"I think they should let the others on
the ballot," Stechuk said. "We are
trying to use the election to draw atten-

tion to LSA-SG."
All candidates for executive council
seats have a $50 spending limit on cam-
paign publicity to be used up until the
election on November 20 and 21.
Presidential and vice-presidential
slates and student organizations may
spend up to $80.
LSA students will also vote on three
referendum questions that appear on
the ballot.
One of the referendums changes the
length of the term an LSA-SG member
serves, from the present staggered
half-year and full-year terms to full-
year terms for president, vice-
president and all fifteen council mem-

bers. If passed, the rule would apply to
those candidates running in the current
election.
The other two referendum questions~
ask student opinion on whether "ex--
periential learning (Projects Com-
munity and Outreach and various in-
ternships) should continue to be gran-
ted credit in LSA" and whether studen-
ts wolild support an increase in their
college government assessment from
fifty cents to Qne dollar.
The LS&A Curriculum Committee, a;
faculty and student review group, is'
currently assessing the experiential
learning programs.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP) - Use of
birth control pills before conception, or
during pregnancy, causes little if any
increased risk of heart defects in the of-
fspring, a four-year study shows.
Previous reports suggested a link
between use of oral contraceptives and
congenital heart defects in pregnancies
that might result despite use of con-
traception. But the Yale Medical School
study found no support for that
speculation in cases of women who
stopped taking the pill when they
became pregnant.
EVEN WHEN a woman continued
using the pill, either by preference or
unawareness of her pregnancy, the in-
crease of defects among children they
bore was insignificant, said Dr.
Michae-I Bracken, study director.
But women who use the pill and also
smoke a pack or more of cigarettes per
day while pregnant, are 13 times more
likely to deliver a child with heart
damage, he said.
Although the study didn't deal with
that phenomenon, scientists suspect
that the pill and heavy smoking com-
bine to affect the fetal blood supply.
AMONG WOMEN who have not used
the pill, an average of 10 in 1,000 live
births involve heart malformations.
The study of information on more
than 4,000 infants born in the New
Haven and Hartford areas showed that
the level of risk was about the same for

r -

pill users who stopped taking it after
becoming pregnant. For those who con-
tinued after conception, the rate in-
creased to 20 per 1,000 births.
But Bracken said the difference is
"not statistically significant."
ABOUT 300 obstetricians and pedia-
tricians took part in the study. Four
Yale research scientists evaluated the
results of interviews with 1,370 mothers
of infants born with heart defects and
with 2,968 mothers of healthy. infants.

Hospital and the Hospital of St. Raphael

Hospital, Hartford and St. Francis.
hospitals in Hartford and Newington
Children's Hospital assisted in the
study.
It was funded by the National In-
stitute of Child Health and Human
Development. The results were presen-
ted recently at the annual meeting of
the American Public Health
Association in Los Angeles.
