Hellmuth's sense of obligation
to community causes probably
led him to his efforts for the
CIA. They feel that Hellmuth
likely sympathized with the
CIA view that international
student meetings were domi-
nated by communism because
American students didn't
have the funds to be ade-
quately represented.
'Whatever his, motivation,
friends agree, it must have
been a high one. "He is faith-
ful and devoted to, all the un-
dertakings he has," says one.
"It's hard to understand ex-
actly what motivates him. But
he must have some terrific
urge to do good-in the world."
