Governor Addresses
Health Conference
Governor David L. Lawrence addressed the opening ses
sion of the 9th annual state Health Conference yesterday in
Schwab and stressed the need for more medically trained
personnel, a new medical school in Pennsylvania, legislation
to approve the use of chemical
ing convictions, and federal aid
to communities for constructing,
sewage treatment facilities.
"It is clear now that we do not
have enough medical schools to
train the physicians we need,"
Lawrence told the 1000 personsl
attending the first general meet-I
ing of the week-long conference:
He called for consideration of
building another medical school
in the state, the cost of which, he
said, should be shared by the fed
eral government
"Highway accidents are one
of our largest unsolved health
hazards," said Lawrence as he
asked for the Legislature to pass
a law giving chemical "drunk
driving" tests full weight as
evidence in the courts.
He also claimed the federal gov
ernm'en't has a responsibility to
expand the program' of grants-in
aid to communities financing ade
quate sewage disposal facilities.
Lawrence flew into State Col
lege yesterday morning. H i s
speaking turn was moved up on

By ANNE KELLY
"All My Sons," the current
Community Summer Theatre
production at Boal Barn, is a
deeply moving story of a fa
ther whose desire to provide a
good life for his sons domi
nates his life, even excluding his
responsibility tc other men during
the World War II years.
Harold Fishbein gives an alter
nately hilarious and sensitive
performance as Joe Keller, the
uneducated and fast-talking busi
nessman who has his family and
friends convinced that his part
ner was responsible for the ship

eads during the war.
A novice actor, John Muntone

of Chris, the son who came

ideals only to find that the loss

the ease of a seasoned veteran,
and is particularly moving in
the scene where he realizes that
his father is actually guilty of
the crime. In this role, he puts
across the message of the play
with great skill..
In a role that requires many
different emotions, Kay Carr
comes across nicely as Annie, the
girl who has come to marry Chris,
but finds opposition in his moth
er, who refuses to believe that
Larry, Chris's brother and Annie's
former sweetheart, is dead. She is
convincing in the triple role—the
happy girl next door, the young
lover, and finally, a determined
woman.
But the most professional per
formance of the evening is that
lof Anne Grant. She has complete
command of both the stage and
the audience as the mother who
believes that her dead son is still
alive. Because if he is dead, his
father is responsible for his death.
Always near, but never quite
reaching hysteria, she will go to
any lengths to shield her husband
and keep her family together.

Federal Aid
Granted to
Rehab Unit
The Rehabilitation Counsel- .
ing Project at the University
will be partly supported for
the academic year 1960-61 by
a renewed grant of $74,851
from the federal Office of Voca
tional Rehabilitation of the De
partment of Health, Education
and Welfare.
Over $60,000 of this grant is ear
marked for 36 traineeships which
have been awarded to qualified
graduate students working toward
master of science degrees in the
two-year program.
The grant includes an increase
of $15,000 over last year's grant
of $59,262. The n u'm be r of
traineeships offered jumped
from 24 to 36 thus giving the
University one of the largest re
habilitation
, counseling pr o
grams in the country. Over 30
others universities are conduct
ing similar projects.
Headed by Dr. Kenneth W. Hyl
bert, the project has progressed,
rapidly since it began in 1955 with
three traineeships and - a limited'
grant. In 1958-59 there were 16
traineeships offered through a
grant of $41,740. Last year the
figure increased to 24 traineeships
and a grant of $59,262.
The purpose of the expanding
program is to prepare rehabilita
tion counselors for public and pri
vate rehabilitation agencies.
