'Conversation Piece' Offered
A real "conservation piece"
is the special course offered
by the Department of Speech
at the University for foreign
students who wish to sharpen
their English-speaking abilities.
Conversation is the keynote of
the course, which 'is entitled
"American Pronunciation for For
eign Students." It has been given
on campus for many years as a
service to students and visiting
staff members from other coun
tries.
The foreign students, all of
whom have some knowledge of
English to start with, learn to
improve their pronunciation of
English words and to master what
(to them) must be many of the
puzzling aspects of• the American
idiom.
The class, taught by Dr. Robert
S. Brubaker. assistant professor
of speech, boasts the' largest en

chooses some articles about the
native country of one or more
students. Also, he tries to give the
students, through talks and dis

American life in general.

the class is more than English in

their own countries, a favorable
view of the United States and its
basic democratic philosophy and
objectives.
