A meeting of all people interested in the forming cf a local branch of the National League for the Hard of Hearing, sponsored by the University, was held Tuesday evening at the Miami branch of the University on N. E. Second Avenue.
Musical numbers were given by Conservatory students for the entertainment of those present. Dr. B. F. Ashe, Dean Henry West, Miss ! Georgia Mae Barrett, and Dr. Max ; Meyer spoke on topics related to the purpose of the meeting.
The League for the Hard of Hearing has several purposes that promote the welfare of its members and others. The League will aid in finding employment for those who are either partially or totally deaf. Another purpose of the League is to give advice on matters pertaining to “quack” remedies for deafness and to personal choice of hearing aids. An existing League of the Hard of Hearing will also be an attraction to winter visitors who are hard cf hearing because it will help them to make congenial social contacts.
Dr. Meyer is interested in the formation of the Miami branch of the League from a social-scientific point of view. He is at the University of Miami on a year’s leave of absence frem the University of Missouri. While here he is engaged in educational research on problems of teaching speech to deaf children.
Officers for the year are Mrs. John S. Gibbons, president; Mr. C. F. Sulzner, first vice-president; Mrs. Marian H. Bell Fairchild, second vice-president; Miss Carolyn Lampkin, recording secretary; Mrs. J. K. Wilson, corresponding secretary.
The final game of the regular 1932 schedule will be on hand tomorrow afternoon at 3 o’clock, as Coach Tommy McCann's fighting Hurricanes meet the formidable Mid-Tennessee Teachers of Murfreesboro Tennessee on the Moore Park gridiron. After this battle the Miami boys will hang up their uniforms for a ten day holiday and then get back to working in preparation for that post-season game with Manhattan University of New York, early in January.
Last season, on that now famous “Suicide” trip, the Murfreesboro lads trimmed the Hurricanes by a score of 25 to 0. The Hurricanes will go into 'tomorrow’s tussle determined to avenge that setback by turning back the teachers and also to round out a fairly successful season.
i All of the Miami squad is in good ! shape with the exception of Tom-: my Thompson, star quarterback, l who is nursing a hip injury and Frank Puglisi, stellar guard, who sustained a shoulder injury in last week’s game against Southeastern Louisiana.
The Teachers have another giant lineman in their ranks by the name of Percy Bramblitt, who weighs something like 250 pounds. He plays at the tackle position. Kerr at right end and Holt and Sharpe at guards are the star performers in the line. Pate, Owen, Smith and (Continued on Page Three)
¡New Chemistry Head Plans Initiation of Better Course
Dr. Gifford Says:
“The largest living thing in the world is the Sequoia tree of California.
“One of these trees contains about 600,000 board
feet of lumber.
*««
“This would be sufficient to build forty five - room houses.”
Faculty Committees-
Two faculty committees have so far been formed, the library and organizations committees. Mrs. Melanie Rcsborough is chairman, Miss Georgia Mae Barret, and Dr. Orton Lowe form the library committee.
The organizations committee is composed of Mr. W. E. Strawinski, chairman, Miss Mary B. Mer-rit, and Mr. W. B. Longnecker.
A new and more practical chemistry course is being inaugurated | at the university under the direction of Professor W. O. Walker, new chemistry head.
Dr. Walker believes that after four years of college werk, a graduate should be able to step into a job without another training course for his position, and is arranging his work accordingly.
After two years’ work, in which general and quantitative analysis are studied, the student will oegin an apprenticeship in the commercial laboratory. In the latter two years of work, the studen. w.ll continue his studies, however, in courses in organic and physical chemistry.
Co-eds at the University of California are allowed to stay out till 2:15 every night of the year, except the “Big Game” night, when there are no rules.—Swarthmore Phoenix.
