Remarks like that clearly make some traditional dowsers a bit uneasy. Robert Monicol drove in his camper all the way from Mesa, Ariz., not because he is interested in "all this psychic stuff' but because "I want to improve myself in my hobby-treasure hunting." A splendidly coiffed blond commodities broker from New York City allows that dowsing helps her cope with, if not actually predict, a fickle market. Ira Denbar, a young mailorder and advertising man from Providence, is trying to shake off the painful effects of a divorce. "Dowsing helps me keep my head together," he says...
Just as certainly, the wilderness camper who beds down in grizzly-bear country is not expecting wall-to-wall safety. Yet skiers who fall have tried to hold slope owners liable for their injuries (a verdict awarding $1.5 million to a Vermont skier was upheld by the State Supreme Court), and outdoorsmen who camp in the vicinity of Yellowstone National Park's bears are, when attacked, trying to lay the rap on the Park Service.

Romantic renderings of the Dodge Coronet or Apache Eagle camper that a lucky giver might win in return for his contribution flavored compassion with a dash of greed. And why not? The Roman Catholic Pallottine Fathers, an international order founded in Italy in 1835, support 2,200 priests and brothers in 26 countries. Its U.S. fund raisers were tired...
...even be realistic to expect students to run a broad recruiting program. Jean Camper Cahn, dean of Antioch School of Law, says that from her experience with Antioch's minority recruitment program, she believes minority recruitment is a job requiring professional expertise. With minority students making up 30 per cent of the law school's student body, Antioch operates an unusually successful minority recruitment program. "I don't believe that undergraduate students are in the best position to recruit for a college or university. They often lack both the maturity and general knowledge about the institution," she says...
