First Speech Clinic
Held by U0 Class
For the first time by the U. of
O., a speech clinic was held at
Prineville January 10 to examine
speech and reading defects. Those
making the trip were Bill Hoppe,
Jane Hooker, Carl Harrison, Ren
del Alldredge, and Mr. Jack L.
Bangs, instructor in speech.
Mr. Bangs said, “We examined
30 speech defective children at
the high school at Prineville, and
12 reading cases. The clinic was
very successful, and we hope to
have it again.”

Frosh Committee to Aid
Student Union Boosters
Appointment of a freshman student union committee to help
“keep student union alive” was announced last night by Og
Young, campus student union chairman.
The new committee will work with the existing sophomore
committee under Uly Dorais, and the junior committee under
Glenn Williams. Its chairman will automatically become a
member of the all-campus com
mittee.
Freshmen desiring committee
positions may file petitions in a
box in the Co-op store all day
Thursday, Young said. The peti
tions will be read Friday by the
all-campus committee, composed
of Eleanor Sederstrom, Ann
Reynolds, Williams, Dorais, and
Young, and by Gerald Huestis,
president of the Independent Stu
dents' association.
Petition Form
The petitioner should submit in
his petition his name, address,
phone number, activity record,
GPA, and other particular ability
that makes him fitted for that
work. “From 16 to 18" members
will be chosen to serve on the
committee, Young said.
Selection of members will be
made without regard to politics,
Young said, although it will not
be made on the strength of GPA
as the present sophomore com
mittee was picked a year ago.
GPA will count, however.
Building Wanted
The so-called “student union"
move is an effort to obtain a
building on the Oregon campus
which will be used solely for re
creational purposes. Such a build
ing would be comparable to the
Memorial Union at OSC and “stu
dent union” buildings on other
campuses.
