WARNING TO TALK:
Shady Trails Camp Aids
Boys with Speech Defects

Pioneering in the field of speech
improvement for over 16 years,
Shady Trails; University Speech
Improvement Camp offers a
summer of training and recreation
for dozens of boys with special
speech problems.
Located on the shores of the
Grand Traverse Boy at Northport,
Michigan, Shady Trails was
founded as a non-profit organiza-
tion in 1932 by John N. Clancy,
assistant to Prof. Harlan Bloomer,
director of the University Speech
Clinic.
Arch School
Adds Course
For Summer
A course in "Regional Planning
and Land Utilization" will be of-
fered for the first time this
summer by the College of Archi-
tecture and Design.
Students will study the prob-
lems of metropolitan regions, ur-
ban growth and national policies
of industrial expansion. Problems
in conservation of natural re-
sources, including water, minerals
and forestry will also be discussed.
The new course will be taught
by Prof. John W. Hyde. It is open
to juniors, seniors and graduate
students +from all colleges, and it
is being offered for three credit
hours.

OPENING THAT YEAR with
only four boys enrolled, the camp
has grown into a modern plant
valued at well over $100,000 and
accommodating between 80 and 90
boys and young men every
summer
Originally staffed with Uni-
versity faculty and students and
always closely affiliated with the
Speech Clinic, a grant from the
Krege Foundation enabled the
University to buy the camp ear-
lier this year.
It will now be administered as
a part of the University Summer
Session and function under the
jurisdiction of the speech depart-
ment.
THE CAMP PROGRAM is de-
signed "to establish a carry-over
of newly learned speech patterns
from the classroom to everyday
living situations," according to di-
rector Clancy.
In addition to the usual camp-
ing activities such as swimming,
craft work and sports, the boys
spend about five hours a day in
class under the direction of
skilled speech correctionists.
Activities such as dramatics, fo-
rums and after-dinner speaking
are also designed to aid the camp-
ers in adjusting themselves to
speech situations.
"The boys all have one major
ambition-to learn how to talk,
and since they have this common
bond of effort they are able to un-
derstand each other's problems
and work them out together,"
Clancy said.

Constitutiont

A new constitution for the senior
lass of the literary college was
unanimously approved by the Sen-
ior Board at its last meeting.
The document, drawn up by the
2onstitution committee of the

ng, provides for senior class ad-

Mercy Killing
Unethical Says
Harvard Dean
Reverence for individual life is
the ethical basis of the medical
profession and "mercy killing" is
in opposition to that principle, Dr.
Willard L. Sperry, dean of thel
Harvard Divinity School, declared'
yesterday.
Speaking on "The Moral Prob-
lems in the Practice of Medicine,"
under the auspices of the medical
school, Dr. Sperry said that the
confidence of the public in doc-
tors might be undermiped by wide-
spread practice of euthanasia, or
"mercy killing.''
* * *
NOTING THAT new cures are
constantly being found for prev-
iously "incurable" diseases, Dr.
Sperry stated that it was the bus-
iness of the medical profession "to
save life-not to take it."
He said that any system of
legalized euthanasia would prob-
ably have to be administered by
a permanent panel of doctors,
and questioned the advisability
of forcing such high moral re-
sponsibility on a few men.
Regarding the value of prolong-
ing life artificially, Dr. Sperry
said that he saw no moral ob-
ligation to keep a dying patient
alive through mechanical means
for overlong periods of time. But
he cautioned against too easy and
too quick disposal of a man's life.
* * *
"DOCTORI ShOULDN'T be too
hasty in telling a patient the truth
about his chances," Dr. Perry con-
cluded. "It depends on how sure
they are of their own diagnosis,
and of the patient's ability to 'take
it.'

THE SENIOR BOARD, initiated
this year by Val Johnson, presi-
dent of the literary school, is com-
posed of a senior representative
from each housing group on cam-
pus. Sixty-five house groups par-
ticipated on the board this year.

Student Legislature.
All candidates must have been

states.
IN ADDITION to the four sen-
ior class executive officers, the
constitution provides for nine
standing committees: activities,
announcements, cap and gown, fi-
nance, information, memorial,
publicity, reunion, and Senior
Ball.
The chairmen of these com-
mittees are to be selected by the
class officers from those seniors
petitioning in the fall semester.
Also at its final meeting, the
Board drew up three alternate
plans for the election of class of-
ficers. They are to be reviewed
and one chosen by the Student
Legislature.

Druggists Wage Price War
LOS ANGELES- Il)-With the battle-cry "we will not be under-
sold," two Los Angeles neighborhood drugstores are waging the wildest
price-cutting war this city has ever seen.
IT ALL STARTED three weeks ago and peace is not in sight.
Thrifty, a California chain, has been located in the area for a number
of years. Whelan's. a national chain, opened up a store on the oppo-
site corner three weeks ao. That did it!
Since then each store has averaged about 25,000 customers a
day.
Prices, set at normal levels each morning. change so fast as the
daily war begins that clerks can't keep up,
ONE STOPPED in Whelan's for lunch. He ordered a 10 oz. porter-
house steak plate, a special at 89 cents. By the time he got through
eating it, he only had to pay 59 cents.
