FORMER BAND VOCALIST:
AphasiaVictim To End
Speech Course Today
A one-time name band vocalist
today will complete a course at
the University Speech Clinic
which has taught him to speak,
read and move.
He is a victim of aphasia, a dis-
ability in which part of the brain
controlling speech, reading, writ-
ing and spelling is damaged. In
addition, his right arm and leg
were paralyzed, a situation com-
monly accompanying the afflic-
tion.
THE CLINIC'S' treatment in-
volves teaching an undamaged
portion of the brain to take over
the job 'of controlling the talking
and writing functions.
Most recent "graduate" of
the clinic is Neil Towner, 32
years old, of Grand .Ledge,
Mich., and New York City. He
came to the clinic last June aft-
er being injured in a fall.
Besides appearing in five New
York stage shows, the former Uni-
versity of Wisconsin student had
toured 45 states as Clarence in
"Life with Father." After that, he
was soloist for Xavier Cugat's or-
chestra.
Towner could barely whisper
when he came to the Ann Arbor
clinic. But now, in addition to
talking, reading and writing, he
can type and is doing reasonably
well at the piano, although his
right hand is partially paralyzed
and he has no feeling in one fin-
ger.

Rose Bowl
Attracts No
S Official
The University may be without
an official representative at this
year's Rose Bowl game in Pasa-
dena, Calif. for the first time
since 1946.
And, the situation may arise
despite the act that the Western
Conference has just allocated
$10,000 to pay expenses for the
presidents, athletic directors and
faculty representatives to the Big
Ten, an Associated Press dispatch
revealed.
PRESIDENT Harlan H. Hatcher
is tied up with "other commit-
ments" and can't be on hand to
watch the grid battle between
Wisconsin and University of
Southern California.
Athletic Director Fritz Cris-
ler thinks he'll "sit this one out"
as he has attended so many in
the past.
The only possibility is Prof.
Ralph Aigler of the law school,
University representative to the
western Conference. He is "uide-
cided" but may change plans to
attend law school meetings ana go
west,
An earlier plan might have
drawn President Hatcher. Presi-
dents of the Pacific Coast Confer-
ence schools invited the Big Ten
presidents to attend the event and
at the same time meet to discuss
prolongation of the inter-confer-
ence Bowl pact.
However, not all the Big Ten
prexies could make it so the idea
was abandoned.
Encampment
Head To Talk
William G. Shannan, executive
director of the Encampment for
Citizenship in Riverdale, N.Y., will
explain the goals of the Encamp-
ment at 7 p.m. today in Rm. 3-B
of the Union.
Visiting the campus today and
tomorrow, Shannon wants2to in-
terest people from 17 to 23 years
old in the Encampment which is
concerned with training for ac-
tive citizenship in the communi-
ty.
Sponsored by the American
Ethical Society, the coed and in-
ter-racial group meets for six
weeks every summer.
Program of the Encampment
includes lectures, discussions and
field trips concerned with prob-
lems such as minority groups, eco-
nomics and inter-racial relations,
alumnus of the Encampment Pe-
ter E. Black, '56NR, said.
Davis To Present
Talk on Oil Finds
Morgan Davis, president of the
American Association of Petro-
leum Geologists, will give a pub-
lice talk on "Progress in Oil Find-
ing" at 8 p.m. today in Natural
Science Auditorium.
His talk will include an account
of the newest devices used by var-
ious oil companies to help them
locate oil.

Recently appointed Dean of
Men Walter B. Rea sat patiently
in his Administration Bldg. office
while the chairman of the J-Hop
band committee rushed out to
make room for a disciplinary case
appointment
As far as my duties go, the big-
gest change so far is the name on
the door, he commented.
* * *
MOVED into the newly created
Dean of Men's post on Oct. 24 from
an associate deanship, Dean Rea
is still awaiting passage of a Re-
gents' by-law outlining his specific
duties.
Currently, the affable dean is
improvising on his vaguely de-
fined functions as "special coun-
selor 'of men students" and is at
the same time hanging onto
strings of his old duties as audi-
tor of student organizations.
This is in line with Dean Rea's
theory that in administrative mat-
ters "you can't drop one post and
-start anew"-it must be a more
gradual, difficult process.
** *
ACCORDING to University sec-
retary and assistant vice-president
Herbert G. Watkins, the by-law
outlining the Dean of Men's duties
is not on the agenda for this
month's Regents' meeting.
When passed, Watkins said,
the by-law will probably put
Dean Rea on the Student Loan
Committee, Committee on Stu-
dent Affairs, Committee on
Student Conduct, the Board of
Governors of Residence Halls
and the Board in Control of In-
tercollegiate Athletics, which has
previously had no representative
from the student affairs office.
It will also give Dean Rea di-
rect charge of all housing for men
students and enforcement of hous-
ing regulations. "There is a defi-
nite need for housing inspection,"
the dean said, and he indicated
that this need may result in the
organization of a special housing
department.
BUT IF DEAN Rea's diverse new
duties set him up as an "activities
man" the characterization won't
be a new one.
Student activities were " the be-
ginning of the process Dean Rea
called "coming up the practical
way, without writing any papers
or books or taking any courses on
how to be Dean of Men."

old, died Monday at University
Hospital after a brief illness.

painters union for 35 years and
was president emeritus of the
Michigan State Conference of

urer of the Citizen's Council of
