Phillips Brooks House has agreed to join forces with the Commonwealth Service Corps of Massachusetts in establishing college campus volunteer programs throughout the state.

Edward Lamont '65, president of PBH, disclosed last night that the organization will provide its own "catalytic agents" trained in volunteer work to help with the early steps of the anti-poverty program.

Workers to Leave

Upon request, PBH will dispatch these workers to the Massachusetts Service Corps, where they will be sent off to various schools across the state to contribute both ideas and administrative ability.

The PBH workers will work at least six hours per week and will move on to a new campus once a volunteer program has taken seed. It is hoped that they will canvass the entire state within several months.

Volunteer Speaks

Already one Harvard PBH volunteer has begun work. Alan Liebgott '66, co-chairman of the PBH mental hospital committee, spoke recently to a group of Wellesley students interested in community voluteer work.

Although many undergraduates in girls' schools in the area are enthusiastic about such work, Lamont said, campus regulations limiting the distance students may drive off campus have discouraged participants in the program.
