5 UCLA Students in Soviet Exchange
Five UCLA medical students are visiting the Soviet Union as part of an exchange program aimed at improving world peace, school officials say.
The trip is the first activity between the Westwood university and its new sister school--Riga Medical Institute in Latvia. During their two-week trip, the students will examine the Soviet health-care system and participate in social activities. They are to return on July 24.
A week later, five Riga students will arrive in Los Angeles for a similar two-week visit.
