Speech ClinicS Reveal. -
School Pupils' Defecfs;
In a survey conducted in three
Pennsylvania cities by Robert L. Min
sen, of the department of English
composition, four to seven per cent of
the children enrolled in the public
schools were found to have speech de
fects.
Milisen, who conducts a speech clin
ic •here, obtained the information in
the course of a personally conducted
survy of conditions in Altoona, Clear
field, and Sharon. The figures ob
tained for these three cities are com
parable with those obtained in other
parts of the country and are prob
ably indicative of general conditions
in Pennsylvania, Milisen said.
In Altoona, of 14,559 pupils, 707
have speech defects; in Sharon, the
figures arc 280 of 6,341 pupils; and
in Clearfield, 165 of 2,320 school chil
dren. Although the percentages vary,
nearly half of the defects noted are
failures to articulate particular let
ters properly. These defects include
lisping on "s" and substituting the
"iv" sound for "el." The others are
stutterers.
' in lectures which Milisen gave in
each city at the conclusion of the
surveys, he said 80 per cent of the
articulatory cases could be overcome
by the parents through patient and
persistent training. Stuttering• might
require more expert diagnosis and at
tention than is available in the home.
Approximately thirty per cent of
the stutterers had been forced to use
their right hand in preference to their
left in. infancy and early childhood,
the survey showed.
Faculty, Seniors Hold
Dinner for Engineers
Seniors and faculty members of the
department of electrical engineering
held a dinner at the phi Kappa Sigma
fraternity last Thursday night.
The entertainment for the evening
was produced by seniors who satariz
ed, through the use of a skit, habits
and peculiarities. of the various in
structors of the school.
'35 Women To Dance
Senior women will hold their annual
formal dinner dance at the Nittany
Lion Inn Friday, May 31, according
to Helen J. Binebauch '35, chairman
of the arrangement committee. Bill
Bottorf's band will play from 7 until
12 o'clock.
7 State Records
Fall in P. I. A. A.
Track Meet Here
100 Outstanding Event
With Poindexter
Winning 9.7.
Penn State Requested
To Hold Meet Annually
. With seven state records falling un
der the assault of 400 high school
track stars, Penn State played host
Saturday to the seventh and most suc
cessful P.I.A.A. track and field meet.
District One, the Philadelphia sub
urban district, and Altoona High
School won scoring honors with 91
and 24 5/6 respectively. Norwood
Ewell, colored sprinter from Lancas
ter, was the individual star. He won
the 220-yard dash, broke the state
record in the broad jump with a leap
of 22 feet 4'A, inches, and took second
in the 100.
100 Outstanding Event
This last event was the feature of
the afternoon. Three negro stars, all
capable of doing the distance in 0,8,
were the outstanding contestants.
Running under perfect conditions,
George Poindexter of Wilkinsburg
won the event in 9.7 seconds, break
ing the mark set in 1932 by Ben John
son, another negro star, now one of
the aces of the Columbia squad. Ew
ell was second and Jimmy Ward of
Altoona third.
Because of the efficient manner in
which the meet was run, P.I.A.A. of
ficials expressed the desire that the
College hold the event every year.
While no action has been taken of
ficially, it seems likely that this will
be done. After it was over Mr. C. S.
Davis, president of the association,
publicly congratulated Penn State
for holding "the finest meet and hav
ing the finest management that we
have ever had."
Other Marks Set
Johnny Woodruff, Connellsvillo col:
ored star, who last week set anew
4:23:4, set a terfific pace in his'event,
being clocked in 2:07 at the half. As
result, hii time for the event was
only 4:28.1, but still good enough to
break the old state mark by more
than twelve seconds.
Another '''colOred star, Terry of
Scottdale, set a new record of 50.9.
in, the quarter. Zalonka of Potts
broke the record for the 12-
Pound shot with a throw of 52 feet
DYe inches. A new mark was estab
lished in the high jump jointly by
Thompson of Sharon and Snyder of
Upper Darby. Both cleared 6 feet
one-half inch.
Osborne Gives Exhibition
In - the discus, five men registered
thrOWs that were better than the old
mark. Lucas of Lansford was the
winner with a heave of 130 feet 8 , b,.
inchei, about ten feet better than the
old mark.
In. an exhibition jump, Harold Os
borne, former holder of the world's
high jump record, and Jim Redmond,
freshman jumper, both cleared well
over six feet, the former doing about
6 feet 6 inches. In the standing high
jump Osborne attempted to break the
world record of 5 feet 4 inches.
Senior Interviews Reveal Ideas,
Plans After 4 Years in College
Twenty-six seniors, picked at ran
dom and casually interviewed on the
campus, gave very definite opinions
concerning their feelings about their
approaching graduation.
Thirteen, used up after their four
years here and not wishing to express
themselves too far, merely said they
were glad to be through. Nine re
versed the opinions of these thirteen
and said they wished they were soph
omores or ffeshinen again. Three
straddled the fence and said they
were glad. to leave in some ways, and
in others not so glad. One refused to
answer.
"Students do not come for knowl
edge. 'Only sheepskins and grades
matter, the latter, and consequently
the former, being obtained by hook
or crook," said one.
Another said, "I'd like to spend my
time listening to the many lectures
that are given here. I think if one
would take in all the extra-curricu
lar activities he could learn almost
as much, if not more, than he does in
books."
One woman interviewed doesn't
think there are any positions open to
girls in her field. "There arc some,"
she said, "but I mean that the field
is so crowded. But if I don't
,get a
position I'll have a college education
anyway."
There were, also, tales of depres,
sion periods and money worries.:Ohe
Said he had a position waiting ...for
him and he was glad to start work-

ing in order to pay back his school
debt. It has caused him a lot of
worry, he says, and he often wonders
if a college education is worthwhile.
Another student entered college in
1929 .to escape the depression just as
others have done since then, and now
finds himself out once more and the
depression still going on. He says,
"I Nave no idea where I'll find a posi
tion so as to be able to pay for my
schooling."
"My parents have a large family
and it was not the easiest thing in
the world for them to 'send me to
school. Dad wanted us all to have
a college education and he persuaded
me to come. I'm quite sure of a 'posi
tion after graduation. I want to re
pay my schooling expenses so dad
can send My brother next year," one
said.
"I think students are required to
take a number of subjects that arc
unnecessary," said one. "Also," he
continued, "I think there is too much
clans distinction among the students."
One student wouldn't go to Tyrone
so much if he were to start over
again. Two said they were going to
take graduate work. One termed
graduation "just another day."
One summed the whole thing up
with, "I think that graduation is not
as big a thing when it comes close as
it is when it is two or three years
away. It's something we want and
When we get it we're not altogether
satisfied." He termed this a "cons
munity,, of opportunity." ,

Cadet Appointments
Open for Students
Under the terms of a 212 W law
passed by Congress, each representa
tive may grant an additional appoint
ment to the United States Military
Academy at West Point.
This fact was brought to the at
tention of students here after Lt.
Col. Russell V. Venable had received
a notice from J. Buell Snyder, rep
rerentative from the 24th Penn
sylvania district, requesting students
from Fayette and Somerset county
who are interested to send him their
grades and recommendations before
June 4.
Time does not permit the holding
of a competitive examination as the
government calls for the substantial,
ing examination on June 12 at the
nearest military post. The men select
ed will enter West Point July 1. All
students interested are urged by Col.
Venable to communicate with their
representatives.
College Will Establish
4 Instruction Centers
Undergraduate instruction will be
provided at four extension centers
during the next school year, J. Orvis
Keller, assistant to the President in
charge of extension, has announced.
The centers will be situated at Du-
Bois, Hazelton, Uniontown, and Potts
ville. They are conducted for the
benefit of students equipped to con
tinue their education in college, but
who are unable to leave their home
communities.
