THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE E BEGINNING TO SEE LIGHT: There's Much More To Pai' Of Glasses Than Meets Eye Unique House on Chtirch Street Is Surrounded by East Quad In these days of intensive spe- cialization, the faulty-visioned person is faced with a three- horned dilemma when it comes to selecting the man who is going to prescribe the eye-glasses. In an effort to straighten out this problem we consulted a few local professional eye men to get the word on the differences among the opthamologists, oculists, cp- temetrists, and opticians. Well, to begin with, the optham- ologist is the most highly-skilled of all. In addition to the regular eight years required for the M.D. degree he generally spends an- Mitchell Wins Iearst Contest Speech Major Takes State Championship r Don Mitchell, a senior speech major from San Bernardino, Cal- " if., went :to Detroit Tuesday, spoke for six minutes on Benja- min Franklin, and returned with the State Championship in the annual Hearst Oratorical Con- test. In addition to the $150 State prize, Mitchell won a chance to go to Chicago May 10 to compete in the Midwestern zone elimi- nations, and then-he hopes-to try for the national champin- ship. In his first crack at the Hearst contest last year, he got only as far as the campus championship. He has also won the annual Northern Oratorical League Con- test among Big Nine schools. Intending to make a career of law, Mitchell has been active in Play Production, radio, and de- bate. other °three years in intensive study of the eye. His work is thus refined to treatment and exami- nation of the eye only, a large share of which is surgical. The oculist, also an M.D., does not specialize as keenly as the op- thamologist in that he generally combines his practice with ear, nose, and throat treatment The oculist is trained for surgical work, but it is not the general practice for them to handle surgical cases. These are referred to the optha- mologist in mose cases. Even though the optometrist does not receive the medical de- gree,he is licensed by the state in which he practices to conduct Pye examinations. Although standards of the op- tometrist are high . . . requiring four years of schooling in some states, and five years in others, they are not licensed to perform surgery or administer medication. Theservices of the optician are in another category entirely. He may be one who sells or manufac- tures optical equipment, or one who grinds the prescriptions, se- lects the size and shape of frame, and adjusts the glasses to the pa- tient.. Wilson R.. Staples, local opti- cian, told us that it isn't neces- sarily the imposing array of spe- cialists confronting a person who needs glasses that keeps him from attending to it. It is rather that he would rather spend his money on something he considers more practical, like a lawnmower, or a new radio for the car than eye- glasses. "Most people will swear up and down that they don't need glasses. 'I can see everything there is to see. . .. I've never worn glasses in my life' is the usual cry. They're often amazed at the results of the examination," said Staples.

Several other houses on the tract of land now occupied by the dormitory were razed to make room for construction of the East Quad annex. Blueprints for the dormitory extension revealed, however, that it would be unneces- sary to remove the Church Street house. Because of the housing shortage, University officials de- cided to leave it standing. The house, a large brown stuc- co building is now occupied by the families of two construction of- flicials. Raymond C. Daly, one of the officials, said that he expects to reside in the house indefinitely. "The house will eventually be re- moved at the discretion of Uni- versity officials," he said. Daly intends to reside in the house un- til the.University decides to re- move it. Bale, Dumond Speak At Historical Meeting Prof. F. Clever Bald and Prof. Dwight L.
