Mrs. Reynolds then advocated
that the world be considered as
one market.
"Start raising food for people
instead of for the market and
there will be less surplus and a
more even distribution. FAO's
keynote is full production, no re
striction," the UNESCO public re
lations member concluded.
Infirmary Additions
Additions to the infirmary at
the College will double the bed
capacity and provide space for a
dispensary and clinical examining
rooms. Present facilities were
completed in 1929 when the stu
dent enrollment was 4,000, and
are no longer adequate for a
student body that today exceeds
10,000 on the main campus dur
ing the fall and spring semesters.

Raabe, head of the clinic's audi
tory work; Dr. C. Cordelia Brong,
head of the clinic's College pro
gram; and Mrs. Lee Phillips, head
of the clinic's public school pro
gram.
Besides their special duties,
these senior staff members teach
courses in speech correction for
College students. Last year, the
staff also included 12 graduate as
sistants working for their masters
and doctor of philosophy degrees.
During the regular sessions, un
dergraduate students majoring in
speech correction work in the
State College public schools with
speech handicapped children. The
clinic feels that caring for speech
defects in the lower grades will
eliminate the need for much more
extensive correction work later
on and will also lead to a happier
childhood for many children.
Waiting List
Graduate students work with
speech handicapped College stu
dents. In fact, each year the clinic
gives all new students a speech
test during Orientation Week. Af
ter a careful• screening, the names
of those needing speech correction
are sent to the deans of the various
schools so they can notify the, in
dividuals. It is not mandatory that
the persons notified take clinic
work but so many do that there
is a waiting list.
This summer, 39 speech correc
tion clients are enrolled in a sum
mer rehabilitation program. They

Carnegie Hall. According to
George W. Ebert, director of the
physical plant, dangerous terra
cotta and brick will be replaced.
One of the cracked stones is lo
cated above the main entrance to
the building. Since last winter, a
scaffolding has been in place un
der the stone to prevent pieces
that might be loose from endan
gering persons using the build
ing.
Ebert points out that it is the
first major repair to the building's
exterior since, it was constructed
in 1904 and presented to the Col
lege as a library by Andrew Car
negie.
In addition to the new construc
tion, physical plant employees
have excavated a ditch to repair
a steam line south of the Agricul
ture Building.
