Advisory Board
Student Speaking Tours

send student speakers to high schools to "talk up" the Uni
versity and to encourage enrollment here. -
Senior Class President Charles Welsh has appointed his
vice president, William Latha
Welsh said the advisory board
hopes to set the program in mo
tion by the end of the semester.
"We plan to start on a small!
scale," Welsh said. "There would
be no more than 50 speakers at
first."
A few of the speakers would
be sent out during the semes
ter break, he said, with a full
complement speaking over Ihe
Easter vacation,
"We would choose students
from scattered areas of Pennsyl
vania and several from out of
state," he said.
I According to initial plans, the
speakers would be chosen first.
I They then would contact their
town high school for permission
to give the talks. -

, to coordinate the plan.
"In this way," Welsh said, "we
have a feeling we would have a
better chance of receiving per
mission for the talks."
Another angle the advisory
board committee is considering
is io contact alumni who are
teaching at the various schools
and •arrange the talks through
them.
James H. Coogan Jr., head of
the Department of Public In
formation, commented: "I think
this will be a good thing and I
believe the University thinks
it will be a good thing."
Coogan said facts on the Uni
versity would be provided by his
department as background ma
terial for the talks.
