SPEECH CLINIC:
Research Project on Visible
Speech To Be Conducted Here

nonite Customs,
To Be Portrayed

Mennonite habits and customs will
be transplanted to the stage of the
Lydia Mendelssohn theatre with the
opening show of the summer ses-
sion, "Papa Is All."
Prop girls and designers are hard
at work this week laying the setting
and background for this production.
Among the authentic props to be
found adding color to Mamma's kit-
chen are a coffee grinder, a cast-
iron wood-burning stove, an old,
churn, religious mottoes, and quilt-
ing frames.
"Papa Is All" is an accurate por-
trayal of life around Lancaster, Pa.
It is hard to believe that people 60
miles west of Philadelphia, and 150
miles from New York could be so
little affected by the advances of sci-
ence and by the metropolitan centers,
but these three religious sects, the
Mennonite, the Amish and the Dunk-
ard are known as "plain people" who
have changed little either in dress
or in the habits of their settler fore-
fathers.
For nearly 200 years these Penn-
sylvania Dutch have lived and farmed
ip the rich agricultural section
around Lancaster. Calmly they pur-
sue their own interests, and faith-
fully follow thecdictates of their
churches, which control their man-
ner of dress and living.
Lancaster County is in the heart
of the Pennsylvania Dutch section.
Its original settlers came from their
native Rhine Valley in Germany at
the invitation of William Penn. Here
they found a welcome refuge from
religious persecutions and the oppor-
tunity to carry on unmolested their
chief occupation of farming. The
Mennonite group is largest in num-
ber, the Amish and Dunkard are the
next largest groups. Each sect is
divided into a number of groups, each
of which has minor varying pratices
and beliefs.
AYH To Hold Trip
The Ann Arbor American Youth
Hostel will join the Detroit group on
a canoe trip at 10 a.m. tomorrow.
Kathryn Volkman, who is in
charge of the group for the summer,
asked all those coming to bring their
lunch. The trip is open to everyone,
whether they are members or not.

A new research in visible speech,
a project begun by the Bell Tele-
phone Laboratories in New York that
records speech sounds so that they
can be read by the deaf, will be con-
ducted at the Speech Clinic, it was
announced after Clark Tibbitts, head
of the Institute for Human Adjust-
ment, sanctioned a request for the
new research recently.,
Two technicians from the Bell Lab-
oratories, George Kopp and Miss
Harriet Green, have accepted ap-
pointments in Michigan. Kopp will
become an associate professor in
speech correction at the University,
and a research assistant at the speech
clinic. Miss Green will become an
assistant professor in the School of
Special Education at the Normal
College, and research assistant at the
speech clinic.
A cathode ray translator, invented
at the Bell Laboratories, will be sent
to the Michigan State Normal Col-
lege at Ypsilanti. This machine trans-
lates speech sounds into electrically
recorded and transient patterns that
can be read. Each syllable of sound
has a definite and unchanging pat-
tern. The propect at the Normal Col-
lege will be designed to teach the
deaf a vocabulary of visible sound
patterns.

EAST LANSING, July 2-(IP)-The
housing shortage may force Michi-
gan State College to close admit-
tance to veterans for the fall term
after August 1, President John A.
Hannah indicated today.
Applications of Michigan veterans
will be accepted until the end of
July when college officials will tabu-
late the prospective fall enrollment to
determine if the housing available
leaves any openings for additional
students, Hannah said. An enroll-
'mentof more than 10,000 is expected
for next year.
Because all dormitories are filled
to capacity, the college is accepting
no new freshmen women except those
who can find rooms in private homes
in East Lansing. However, one new
women's dormitory is expected to
be completed by Jan. 1, 1947 to pro-
vide further housing for women.

An accoustical spectograph, a var-
iation of the machine to be sent to
Ypsilanti, will be located at the Uni-
versity speech clinic. This machine
makes permanent rather than tran-'
sient records of speech suitable for,
indicating and preserving errors. The
hard of hearing may watch and at-
tempt to imitate the recorded sym-
boys of perfect speech to correct their
own speech.
The research to be conducted at
the clinic by Kopp and Miss Green
will include attempts to clarify the
electrically recorded symbols for
sound, and the determination of the
proper sizes for screens on which
these symbols are transmitted.
Senate Finds
Old Evidence
Aorainst May
WASHINGTON, July 2-(RP)-The
Senate War Investigating Commit-
tee today unearthed three-year-old
evidence that Rep. May (Dem., Ky.)
pressed the Army to give more war
work to his "good friends"-a group
of Illinois munitions manufacturers
whom Senator Mead (Dem., Ky.) ac-
cuses of "war profiteering."
"These fellows are good friends
of mine and have been very kind to
me in the past about some things
and I want to help them if I could,"
May. was quoted as saying in a trans-'
cript of a telephone conversation with
Major General J. H. Campbell, then
chief of Army Ordnance. May is
chairman of the House Military Com-
mittee.
The transcript was read into the
records of the Senate committee
which is inquiring into the tangled
financial structure, complicated op-
erations and wartime- profits of 19
closely linked Illinois concerns
which were awarded more than $78,-
000,000 worth of war contracts.
The committee was told today that
the concerns paid large salaries to
company officials and their rela-
tives. Four men alone, it was testi-
fied, voted themselves $1,380,120 in
salaries over a three and one-half
year period. The salary figures
caused Chairman Mead of the Sen-
ate committee to charge "war pro-
fiteering."
U.S., China Seek Bodies
Of American Servicemen
Rewards are being paid by both the
Chinese and American governments

of the remains of American service-
men who lost their lives in China

of the Chicago Quartermaster De-
pot, announced.
As of June 1, there are 1,000 known
service personnel whose remains have
not been recovered in China. In ad-
dition, there are 500 isolated burials.
