GLOBAL POPULATION

An expert on world population growth will address the World Affairs Council of Greater Hampton Roads Thursday on ``Gaining People, Losing Ground.''

Werner Fornos, president of The Population Institute, works to convince leaders of developing countries that a reduction in population growth is critical to development.

The program includes a reception at 6:15 p.m., dinner at 7 and Fornos' remarks at 8 in Old Dominion University's Webb Center. The cost is $17 for members, $22 for nonmembers and $10 for students. For reservations, call 461-3664 or 422-8445. by CNB
