EVERYONE FROM EMERSON TO ELEANOR: Prominent Speakers Have e en Presented Here Annually Since 1854 By FRANCES PAINE The appearance here of a number of nationally prominent speakers each year in the Oratorical Associa- tion Lecture Series had its beginning back in 1854, when the Students' Lecture Association was founded by student initiative. According to the Nov. 24, 1854, is- sue of the Argus, an early Ann Ar- bor paper, "The students of the Lit- erary Department of the University have taken the subject of popular lectures in hand and made all neces- sary arrangements for the com- mencement of a lecture course im- miediately." Lyceum Movement Founding of the SLA, which con- tinued for 60 years before being re- organized into the present Oratorical Association, was part of a nation- wide movement for adult education which was known as the "lyceum movement." It has been called "one of the most significant 19th century instruments for the dissemination of ideas." 1000 HEADS WANTED!!V. Be they round, square, flat -for that Michigan "Crew- Cut" at the DASCOLA BARBERS Between State & Michigan Theaters v i i In the first decade of its existence the SLA lectures were mostly con- cerned with ethics and moral mat- ters. Ralph Waldo Emerson made several appearances here, and the program in those early years also included Bayard Taylor, Horace Mann,.Wendell Phillips, Henry Ward Beecher and Josiah Holland. Literary Subjects In the second decade literary sub- jects were greatly in demand, and among others Mark Twain, Bret Harte, James Murdoch, the famous actor and elocution teacher, and the well-known actress Mrs. Mary F. Scott-Siddons gave lectures here. Auditoriums of local churches were used for the SLA lectures until 1873, when University Hall was dedicated. "The Students' Lecture Association has long held the reputation of giving the best and most expensive pro- gram in the United States," accord- ing to the 1902 Michiganensian. "The University's central location, its rep-- utation and the large number of stu- dents made it the favored place of the most important deliveries of our greatest men and women, and gave it the name of the best forum in the United States. Puerto Rican Speech "Here Grover Cleveland made the speech which inaugurated his second successful campaign for president, and Benjamin Harrison made the famous Puerto Rican speech which awakened world-wide comment," the 'Ensian continued. The SLA ceased to exist about 1912, but only after the broadening interests of the University began to attract many prominent visitors whose addresses were usually given free of charge. The Oratorical As- sociation, which had been founded in 1889 to conduct student contests in public speaking, took over its functions after the first world war. Prof. Thomas Trueblood, professor emeritus of the speech department, was instrumental in this later devel- opment of the lecture series. A $20, 000 scholarship for speech students, named in his honor, was recently es- tablished by the Oratorical Associa- tion. Speakers Listed The seven-fold classification-eth- ics, literature, travel, history, poli- tics and foreign affairs, humor and science - which covered most of the lectures of the early period still ap- plies.
