Peace Corps Agents Hold Recruiting Week

A Peace Corps team will set up shop in Phillips Brooks House today and spend a week recruiting Harvard and Radcliffe students.

The recruiters will visit classes and Houses to talk with any students who want to hear about current plans for the Peace Corps. They will administer applications tests in PBH beginning Wednesday. A similar drive last year netted 125 applications.

William A. Delano, formerly Peace Corps general counsel and now secretary-general of the International Secretariat for Volunteers Service, will be in charge of the Harvard drive. The Secretariat is a year-old organization designed to help nations set up their own Peace Corps.
