Defining a handicapped child as
"one who deviates from the type to
such an extent that he requires spe-

his possibilities," Dr. Charles S.
Berry told superintendents and teach-
ers about "Special Education of
Handicapped Children in the Smaller
School System" yesterday afternoon
at the University high school.
"Not less than five per cent of the
pupils of compulsory school age are
handicapped," said Dr. Berry. "The
types included in these figures are
the blind and partically sighted, the
deaf and hard of hearing, the crip-
pled, the anemic and tuberculous, the,
defective in speech, the mentally re-
tarded and the delinquent.
'Through special education it is
possible to develop into useful law-
abiding citizens a large percentage of
the handicapped children who other-
wioe would become a burden and
menace to society.j

Dr. Berry then showed how the
