Protestantism), Jay Dolan and Bob Orsi (Roman Catholicism), Deborah Dash Moore and Jonanthan Sarna (American Judaism), C. Eric Lincoln and ,Larry Jones (Black Religion), George Marsden and Joel Carpenter (Evangelicals and Fundamentalists), Ed Harrell (Electronic Church), and Richard Bushman and Jan Shipps (Latter-day Saints).
Registration is required for the morning session featuring Marty and Woodward focusing on developing news stories. Registration is not required for the afternoon session which begins at 2 p.m. and features Marty moderating a two-part open news forum, "Developments and Reconfigurations Since the Sixties," and "Recent Changes in the Study of American Religion." A reception follows at 4 p.m. The gathering of religious scholars and writers is being arranged by the IUPUI Center for American Studies, directed by Jan Shipps, with funding provided by the Indiana Humanities Council. To register, call the IUPUI News Bureau, 4-7711.-G. Wolfram

NORM BROWN READY FOR ST. LOUIS AND THE U.S. NATIONAL SENIOR OLYMPICS Fifty-seven-year-old Norman Brown, assistant director of admissions at IUPUI, has two races to run before he competes in the national senior olympics at St. Louis June 19-24, but he's fit and ready and thinks he can win. Brown, who has always been "fairly active," began his personal
fitness routine of running 12 miles or so a week after he broke an ankle and could no longer officiate for college intramural and high school basketball and softball games. "Generally very healthy, and watching cholesterol" Norm will compete in his class in the 100- and 200-meter events. He
qualified last summer to run in the nationals this year, and for the last three months he has stepped up his fitness regimen to prepare for the speed and endurance he will need.
Every day he sprints, runs, jogs, swims and/or works out on Nautilus equipment. His oldest daughter April, 27, a former I.U. track athlete and power lifter, set up Norm's fitness program, and he gets encouragement from his daughter Angela, 19; his son Paris, 32, and his wife Anne Marie. Before the big event, Norm is scheduled to run in the city of St. Louis senior olympics May 29-June 1, which will give him some experience on the track there, and he will race again in the Indy Senior Classics June 10 on the track at IUPUI. Norm has helped thousands of students enroll at IUPUI since he came here 15 years ago, following 20-years' service in the U.S. Air Force.
IUPUI HAS GUESTS FROM JAPAN, YUGOSLAVIA, ETHIOPIA AND ELSEWHERE To help meet the goals of mutual understanding, increased professional knowledge and the shared responsibility for the conditions of all people, we will play host to 10 foreign guests in the 11th annual IUPUI-Council of International Programs (CIP). They are already at work in local agencies, hospitals or churches in jobs and duties that compare to what they do in their own countries--working with the elderly, drug addiction, law enforcement, health, youth and family planning. Our 10 guests are among the 210 nationwide involved in the
cultural/educational/professional exchange program. On Aug. 9 they will all meet for a week of meetings in Washington, D.C. David Metzger, associate professor and director of IUPUI-CIP, School of Social Work, has been involved for many years in the program and arranges for them to stay with IUPUI and other area families while they are here, "a venture that enriches everyone involved," he said. -M.
