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.

Maynard McD ONNELL AIRCRAFT CORPORATION Graduate Plan For MASTER OF SCIENCE -ODAnd DOCT OR OF SCIE NC E DEGRE E S 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.

REA New Dean o Men Finds Life Hectic, Busy--as Usual HERE'S OPPORTUNITY During December and January, we will have openings for qualified young women in several fields: Telephone Operator Service Representative Order Typist Each of these positions offer good wages, steady employment, friendly associates, and enjoyable work that is important to the community. One of these positions is made for you. Come in and talk it over with our Employment Representative. MlicigauBell Teleplh one Co. 323 E. Washington By VIRGINIA VOSS 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."
