Two, Waterloo 11â€"yearâ€"olds are looking forward to a month‘s holiday this year in Knoxville, Tenn. Beverly Pugh, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Pugh, 294 Alâ€" bert St., a Grade 6 pupil at Northdale public school, and John Flefschauer, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Fleischauer, 293 Lourdes Cres., a Grade 5 pupil at Empire public school, are Waterloo‘s reâ€" presentatives at the Tennessee Children‘s International Summer Village. They are two of eight children from Waterloo County selected to attend the monthâ€"long camps held at various centres throughout the world. s They are being sponsored by Waterloo County chapter CISV, which is sending four youngsters each to a camp in France and one in the United States. Sandy Armstrong from Arthur will be the adult leader accomâ€" panying the group to Tennessee. April O‘Neil of 105 Margaret Ave. N., a former airline hostess, will accompany the French group as their adult delegate. Children‘s International Sumâ€" mer Villages Inc. is an organizaâ€" tion which began in Cincinnati, Mrs. Pugh admires her daughter‘s maple leaf tartan skirt. CISV selects local pair Ohio, in 1951. Founder Doris Twitchell Allen got the idea of gathering groups of youngsters together to create a small world of peace for a time. The local chapter is one of three in Canada. Last year it hostâ€" ed one of the villages, when 40 children from around the world spent a month at Conrad Grebel College at theâ€" University of Waterloo. s This, she believed, would proâ€" mote lasting international friendâ€" ships, contribute to world underâ€" standing and develop outstanding citizens of the world. Participation is limited to 11â€" yearâ€"olds, since this is believed to be the age at which youngsâ€" ters are the most out going, self reliant and flexible. It is beâ€" lieved that, at this age, they are unhampered by differences in culture, race or language and that they are free from conflicts of the teen years. Waterloo‘s two representatives arebusily making plans for their trip next month. Beverly Pugh is collecting items teo trade with the other youngsters. Among them are totem poles, tepees, maple leaf bracelets and replicas of mountâ€" ed policemen. She was outfitted with part of her uniform this week. It conâ€" sists of a maple leaf tartan skirt, white sweater and gold blazer. Both the youngsters are keen on sports and share stamp colâ€" lecting interests. Beverly also collects dolls and coins. Boys wear brown pants, white shirt with maple leaf tartan tie and gold blazer.
