THE MICIJIGAN DAILY { ....... t Dr. Dell Henry, Leads Speech Defects Study, Physiological Factors Are Analyzed In Scientific InvestigationBy Clinic On the staff of the University Speech Clinic, is Dr. L. Dell Henry, who, besides her work as general phy- sician, is conducting a series of inves- tigations to find out what physiologi- cal factors lie behind speech defects. Up to the present time, most work in this field has been theoretical and very little biological or scientific study has been made. It is the pur- pose of the Speech Clinic to put itself on a more scientific footing by means of teir present research. "Open Mind" Investigations I "We are proceeding with our in- vestigations with a purely open mind," Dr. Henry said yesterday, "so that we shall be ready to develop anything definite which we may find." The most important work that is being done is in bio-chemical re-I search. Dr. Howard Lewis of the bio-' chemistry department is cooperating with the clinic in making the blood analysis. This investigation just got under way this fall. The Clinic is using the Fasting Blood Test, which works on the principle of taking blood when it is at its basic metabolic condition. Mapy Things Looked For "In these blood tests," Dr. Henry declared, "we are looking for many things. A predominance of pholes- terol would show that there is an in- balance in the endocerine system. This chemical substance with the state of the blood sugar would ac- count for the flabbiness in the speech muscles. The condition of potassium, calcium, and phosphorous is also be- ing studied." Dr. Henry came to the Speech Clinic two years ago, but it wasn't until }February, 1941, that she was commissioned to devote part of her time to investigation in this field. "We have long realized," Dr. Henry concluded, "that there is a lot which is yet unknown about speech defects, and we are doing our best to rectify this situation as soon as possible."

Highway Accident Helps Police Track Licenseless Driver When Clifford Kerr, 24-year-old truck driver from Aurora, Ind., parked his truck in the middle of US-12 highway three miles east of Ann Argor early yesterday morning, he had no idea police would discover he was driving with an expired driv- er's license. Here's how it happened: Lawrence Anthes, 42, of 661 Swith St., left his home shortly after 6 a.m. bound for Detroit where he is em- ployed in one of the shops. Driving a sedan, Anthes didn't see the parked truck until it was too late to avoid a collision. Truck driver Kerr explained to po- lice he had set flares on the road but they must have gone out. A small lighted lantern was' still burning about fifty feet behind his truck. Witnesses bore out Anthes' state- ment that there were no flares or lights on the truck to indicate a warning to approaching drivers. Asked to produce his license, Kerr could not. Today he is being held in the Washtenaw county jail for crim- inal negligence. Anthes-the one who did a good turn for the police-suffered a broken knee cap, fractured rib and severe cuts on his neck. He is confined to St. Joseph's Mercy Hospital.
