generosity should be adopted. We should strive for a happy medium of traditional Chinese reserve and American demonstrativeness. Motto: don't be afraid of rebuff, be more active. If one doesn't make the effort, he'll never get anywhere.
Recapping the discussion on the Changing Image of China in America, Voy Jew, math major from the East Coast who attended the confab with her friend Deger Hoo， noted the Westerner's image has undergone many vicissitudes starting from the 17th century when Chinese was looked upon as peculiar because the West had nothing to offer to the culturally superior Chinese. By the time 19th century rolled around, the West was surging ahead in the fields of science and technology while China was still wallowing in self complacency, thus incurring nothing but contempt from the West. This feeling, however, was softened when Dr. Sun Yet Sen appeared on the scene and tried to introduce the western way into China. Unfortunately the image then of the Chinese in the minds of Occidentals was symbolized by such unflattering characters as Fu Manchu and Charlie Chan. It remained for Pearl Buck and her Good Earth to put the Chinese in a better light, showing the people as patient, cheerful, industrious, admirable and warmly loveable. The discussion group felt that the present image of Chinese is one of confusion because of the conflict between the young, trying to assimilate and the old, trying to hang on to the status quo. All agreed, however, that total integration will be achieved because these forces are constantly at work^ school, marriage, political, social and business contacts.
On the same topic, a major contribution was made by Dr. Tinn Hugh Yu， lecturer at American-Asian Institute, who categorized the changing image of Chinese into the following periods: 18th century~age of respect； 1840 to 1905—age of contempt; 1905 to 1937—age of benevolence; 1937 to 1944—age of admiration; 1944 to 1949 ―age of disenchantment; 1949 to the present―age of hostility. He went on to point out that the real image of the Chinese was best described as a combination of Confucian morals
