Group to Raise Funds For Starving Indians

A door-to-door campaign to raise money to send food to India is being organized by a graduate student and a Nieman fellow. Craig Eisendrath and Hiramay Karlekar are forming the League for Indian Famine Emergency (LIFE) which will send aid to three of India's drought ridden northern states through CARE's India Relief Fund. David Riesman '31, Henry Ford II Professor of Social Sciences, Bernard Malamud, Lecturer on the Freshman Seminar Program, and Kusin Wair, Indian author, have agreed to be sponsors.

LIFE is holding an organizational meeting at 8 p.m. tonight at 2 Divinity Avenue, Room 18. Anyone who can give even a small amount of time to collect money should attend, Eisendrath said.
