A few months ago Pete Fishbein, busy at his New York law practice, received an unexpected long distance phone call from Washington. "This is Sargent Shriver," announced the voice at the other end of the line. "I'd like to talk to you. Can you come down to Washington?" Our surprised hero had never met Mr. Shriver, but Pete had been recommended to him, and he had an important job to fill. So Pete went to Washington and accepted Mr. Shriver's offer to become a deputy secretary general in the Peace Corps' new international secretariat, which is working with over a dozen foreign countries to help them set up their own Peace Corps.
Pete began work in January - in Paris. He spent his first three weeks hopping from one foreign capital to another before finally checking into his Washington office for the first time. Since then he's continued globetrotting much of the time, and with great success. "We've got Peace Corps popping up all over the place," he reports enthusiastically.
Another government foreign aider, ScottRutherford, in May left the Pakistan section of the Agency for International Development in Washington, and shipped out for - of all places - Pakistan. He, Dee and their two children stopped over briefly in Paris and Beirut, tarried a week in Karachi for "consultation and orientation," then moved on to Dacca, East Pakistan, where they'll be for two years. Scott is the assistant program officer there, dealing — as he did in Washington - with development loan projects and planning, and he expects his duties to send him scurrying all over East Pakistan.

He coordinates all phases of retail activity, dealing with sales volume, budgets and capital expenditures, among other things.

According to the Air Force's press release, "Captain Partridge was selected for the special professional officer training in recognition of his demonstrated potential as a leader in the aerospace force." Tom is now stationed at Charleston Air Force Base in South Carolina.
