Sports Program Brings Camp, and an "Elite" Game, to Inner City.
Oberlander, Susan
Chronicle of Higher Education, v34 n47 pA29-30 Aug 3 1988

The camp, held at Temple University, offers instruction in 13 activities, and almost all of the children are seeing the inside of a college campus for the first time. (MLW)
