This article investigated the lives and careers of three great librarians in India, USA, and Korea: S. R. Ranganathan, Melvil Dewey, and Bong-Suk Park, respectively. It also explored their influences and contributions. Their births and early years, and marriage; college years; commitment toward librarianship and careers; achievements in other areas; personalities; and commemorative activities, among others, were analyzed. Their contributions to librarianship and library community in the general theory of library science, professional education, classification and cataloging, library administration and management, and library associations and library movement were also investigated. Special focus was on Bong-Suk Park, with a special regard to his unrealized dream for the Korean library community as well as insufficient estimation related to him and his achievements.

Purpose: This study aimed to describe and identify the relationship between gait and contracted ratios of the transverse abdominal (TrA), internal oblique (IO), and external oblique (EO) muscles. Methods: This study was conducted on 50 elderly people. The contracted ratios of the lateral abdominal muscles (LAM) were measured using the abdominal drawing-in maneuver (ADIM) and ultrasonographic imaging. Gait was measured using the timed up and go test and the 10 m walk test. Results: The contracted ratios of the TrA and IO muscles significantly increased after ADIM. Those of the TrA muscles showed a significant correlation with gait in the limited community ambulatory group. The contracted ratios of the IO and EO muscles showed a significant correlation with gait in the community ambulatory group. Conclusion: Our findings suggest a specific training on the relationship between gait speed and the activation of the LAM in elderly people.

The objectives of this study was to explore the concept, the origin and history, and classification of amenity. Amenity is a new approach about nature, environment and the world. The concept, origin and classification of amenity was widely diversified, however, the concept of amenity was inclusive and abstract, so amenity was easier to recognize than to define. Even though many people were interested in amenity, however, the movement or practice of amenity in Korea was still in infancy stage. This paper was an exploratory study of amenity and more detailed further studies on amenity should conducted in Korea. It was suggested that we should not start on philosophical question of amenity. We should rather start on practical problems of how to put into practice to insure quality of life in the community, to conserve nature, to study practical dimensions of amenity, and to develop indicators to measure amenity.

During the last half a century the Korean rural society have experienced drastic changes : the retreat of Japan from the colonial interference and suppression in 1945, the Korean war and disorder in the 1950s, the implementation of the first and second five-year economic development plans in the 1960s, the ambitious implementation of the new village movement called Saemaul Undong to modernize the traditionally stagnant rural village in the 1970s, and socioeconomic and political turmoil in the 1980s. In this complex process of change the rural health care system in Korea was grdually reformed. This paper reviews the socioeconomic change and the basis of the changing structure of the health care system in rural Korea, on the basis of the existing literature and secondary data. Thus this is not a research paper but a review article in its nature. After reviewing the past and present situation, the directions and strategies for the reformation of the rural health care system are suggested.

Algal vegetation in the subtidal zone between a small rock output and the Juckdo Island, eastern coast of Korea was investigated at several selected sites. The objectives of the survey were to descirbe the poorly known macroalgae community in this area and correlate the pattern of distribution as well as the change of zonatin with the environmental conditions. The water movement, light intensity and theinclinatin of substrate are considered as the environmental parameters. The upper and mid subtidal zones in sheltered area with less steep rocky surface are dominated by large brown algae Srgassum confusum; in the exposed area are characterised by species of Costaria costata. In the lower subtidal zone, the difference of vegetaton between the sheltered and the exposed areas is not recognized. At this depth the light intensity is an important ecological factor. Six narrow algal zones occur in the sheltered area, whereas two broad belts occur in the exposed area. the biomass value is 4 times greater in the sheltered area than in the exposed area.

Proper methods for facilities distribution are suggested by the examination of researches on facilities distribution, the analysis of the scope that facilities are used, and the consideration of facilities demand, and proper distribution and placement of facilities suitable for each stage is suggested. The theoretical examination for proper distribution and the analysis of the use scope is made. As a result. the area covers four dongs(administrative unit) within 1km. The $80{\sim}90%$ of residents who use the existing facilities are the ones living within 1km and so the zone of life in everyday life depending on walking as a means of movement is found to be expanded by the developments in transportation means and road construction. Therefore I suggested that lifetime sports facilities be established within the use scope whose radius and area are 1km and 4km2, respectively, regarding the sports facilities as a community center which can playa role of an institution of community center.

The European Union(EU) bas enacted a series of directives including the Directive on Electronic Commerce and started harmonizing the national laws in this area. As a result of this effort, Electronic, Commerce bas been vitalized as a part of Information Society Services. This article would be helpful to analyze the new legislations of the EU and to show their essentials as seeming free movement of goods and services by Electronic Commerce in the community. Therefore, this article would be useful to draw up a plan of South Korea Legislations on Electronic Commerce.

한국은 제1, 2차 경제개발 5개년계획으로 산업화와 경제 발전을 이룩하면서 심각해진 도 ${\cdot}$ 농격차의 해소를 위해 1970년대 초부터 농촌지역사회 개발을 위한 새마을 운동을 전개하였다. 새마을운동은 근면, 자조, 협동을 기본 정신으로 한 잘살기 운동으로 1970년 당시 대통령이 농촌개발에 대한 강한 욕구와 집념을 천명하면서 농촌 새마을운동에서 시작되었다. 자원이 부족하고 농촌의 사정은 더욱 열악하여 국민의 70%를 차지하는 농민의 상당수가 끼니를 걱정해야 했으며, 도 ${\cdot}$ 농간의 격차는 벌어져 도시로 인구가 몰려들고 사회는 불안정한 상태에서 농촌지역사회의 개발 없이는 나라의 발전도 안정도 기대하기 어려운 실정이었다. 농촌 개발을 위한 환경개선과 소득증대 사업에 주력했던 새마을 운동이 성공할 수 있었던 요인을 정부의 관심과 지원도 있었지만, 새마을 교육을 이수한 새마을 지도자들, 그 지도자들과 함께 근면, 자조, 협동을 실천했던 마을 사람들, 지역사회 주민들의 공동 노력이었다. 이 논문에서는 농촌에서 시작된 새마을운동이 도시의 직장, 공장 새마을운동으로 번져 범국민적 운동으로 나라 근대화의 원동력이 되었으며 성공할 수 있었던 요인들을 살펴보고 국제협력 사업의 일환으로 개발도상국의 농촌 지역사회 발전을 위해 새마을운동 경험을 공유할 수 있는 방안에 관하여 제언하고자 하였다.

Village Renewal(Dorferneuerung) Policy Program in Germany, directly originated from Rural Beutification Movement between mid 18C and mid 19C, has several characteristics as follows. First, we can find out the planned approach in land use and settlement reorganization of Pillage Renewal Program. There are three ways to designate the planning area of the village rearrangement project in countryside. One is to designate the detailed B-plan district by urban plan for the village over some size defined legally. Another is to have a living space of settlement be contained in land allotment project area. In this case, residential areas of several villages related to agricultural land consolidation should be simultaneously designated as the project area. The last is only for the built environment focused on the living space. Second, the emphasis in German village encouragement program can be made on the integral approach through which sets of policy programs of the land allotment, the living environment improvement, the physical landscape management and the cultural resources conservation are intensively implemented together. Third, the bottom-up and community participation approach can be greatly stressed on the planning and implementation process, Community participation, subsidy application to local government by residents themselves, community consensus on architectural style and outdoor spatial form, etc. have been recognized as an effective strategy to accomplish the task of village activity promotion.
