Waltz, manager of the Union or with Lt.-Col. F. C. Rogers, commandingj officer of the University ROTC unit. Perlongo entered the Law School in 1934. He took notes from lectures in Braille, and did his case work by having the cases read to him. He briefed these cases immediately and typed his examinations. His handi- cap has not prevented him from en- gaging in other activities which have enabled him to lead a life typical of the normal student. He has become versatile in several fields which have aided him in achieving his goal. At Michigan State College, from which he was graduated in 1931, he was an honor student. He is an accomplished pianist, and played in an orchestra for several years. He is also an adept craftsman, being ex- pert at repairing radios, at carpentry and at reed and fiber work. His ability in shoe repairing gives him rating as an expert cobbler. A Good Hiteb-Hiker Also, as a means of getting about, and possibly to show that even .a blind student can be collegiate, he has hitch-hiked alone to nearly every section of the state, and has made several trips to his home at Gaastra in the Upper Peninsula. As an example that being blind is no handicap to success, he points to his friend, common Pleas Judge Ned Smith of Detroit, the only other blind person to receive a law degree from the University. a , CHELSEA FLOWER SHOP 203 East Liberty Phone 2-2973 Flowers for All Occasions 4' r SPECIAL FRIDAY - SATURDAY - SUNDAY WHITE HOUSE SUNDAE it Life Saving, Women Students: The Life Saving class will meet on Tues- lay at 8:30 p.m. at the Union Pool.
