World University Service (formerly known as ' International Student Service ') was formed in 1920 to assist. students and lecturers in need. With headquarters in Geneva, and with national committees in nearly forty countries, the Service, which is dependent entirely on voluntary contributions, now raises and spends about £ 450,000 each year.
Help is given in Britain and abroad to tuberculous and refugee students and lecturers, and financial aid is granted to students of suitable ability who encounter unforeseen hardships. In war-devastated and under-developed countries World University Service provides food, clothing, medicines, and text-books to needy students.

The novel by Sir Walter Scott
Adapted as a serial in eight episodes by R. J. B. Sellar
8 — ' The Clouds Disperse '
. Special music by Ian Whyte who conducts the BBC Scottish Orchestra
Produced by Finlay J. Macdonald
Nigel Olifaunt , Lord Glenvarloch, went to London in 1620 to reclaim a large sum of money due to his family by King James VI. Despite the friendship of George Heriot and the rather more affectionate assistance of Margaret Ramsay , the young Scot's lack of knowledge of court etiquette got him into difficulty after difficulty. In a final bid to get an audience with the King, he accosted the monarch in the Royal Park. Terrified out of his wits, the timid King Jamie shouted for assistance to the Duke of Buckingham, Nigel's sworn enemy.
