By ROSE PERLBERG In an unassuming three-story stone and clapboard building on east Huron St. behind Health Service, people who have lost the function of speech and under- standing, laboriously regain "hu- man" status. Since 1937, the University Speech Clinic has actively functionedas an institute for Shuman adjust- ment. Such a rehabilitation center was first considered by the late Dr. John Kemper, onetime head of the University's oral surgery de- partment, whose work concerned children with cleft palates. Can Operate "We can operate," Dr. Kemper once said, "but we can't put speech into our surgery," The oral surgeon felt an urgent need for a Speech Clinic to teach handicapped youngsters to talk. His wish was fulfilled when Mary A. Rackham donated one million dollars to the University for the purpose of human adjust- ment and the clinic became one of its units. Clinic Director For 16 years, Prof. Harlan H. Union To Provide Movie Showing, Travel Services Hoping to give hardworking students a study break, the Union has arranged to show a free movie at 8 p.m. Wednesday in the Ball- room. "The Man in a White Suit," starring Alec Guiness, Joan Green- wood and Cecil Parker, is the film that has been secured for the evening. Hailed as "rib-tickling satire," it deals with the work of a chemist who perfects a fabric that repels dirt, thus bringing chaos to the textile industry. Also available to students dur- ing the week of final examinations will be the Union travel service with files now located in the Union lobby. Interested students may fill out rider or driver tards and file them according to states. IT, Bloomer of the speech department has been director of the clinic. The tall, graying professor de- scribed the clinic's progress over the years. "We have expanded to include six divisions," he said. "And people come to us for treat- ment from all over the country." An examining division, which is responsible for administering ex- aminations to all people entering the Clinic for treatment, the child- ren's division, providing diagnosis for various kinds of speech dis- orders suffered by the younger set and a similar division for adults, make up three of the clinic's areas of service. Other Divisions The others include a student' division, a hearing division which is concerned with speech problems due to auditory impairment and another dealing wholly with dys- phasia. It is the last division that achieves, perhaps, the most re- warding results, for those taking therapy have lost the power to use or understand language due to injury or disease of the brain. "People suffering from dyspha- sia are those whose language has once been normal," Prof. Bloomer explained. Variety of Causes "The variety of causes of dys- phasia, as well as the degrees of its seriousness, are infinite," he continued. The professor explained that cerebral vascular accidents such as stroke, hemorrhage or thrombosis could cause injury to the brain by depriving its cells of vital oxygen and killing them. - If the dead cells were those con- cerned with speech, the individual may suffer complete or partial loss of language and the ability to un- derstand it. "Nerve cells don't regenerate," the director said, "but there are billions of cells in the brain and sometimes we are able to call areas into speech function that were not previously used." Expression Differs Dysphasia's expression may vary among different patients, accord- ing to which part of the brain was damaged. "Some people can read but are unable to talk, others can'talk but not understand," the soft-spoken professor remarked. Calling the rehabilitation course for dysphasia "highly comprehen- sive and intensive," Prof. Bloomer feels that its aid reaches beyond the patients 'directly involved. "The knowledge we gain in treating these people sheds light on the function of language and its deficiencies in general," he said.
