Parents to Blame For Children's
Speech Defects Says Summer Clinic
Parents can blame themselves
for many of the speech handicaps
j their children suffer.
! So says Dr. John S. Wiley, Di
rector of the University summer
speech clinic for children. Now in
, its eighth year, clinic studies show
that the most common speech
problems are poor articulation
ilping. stuttering and inability to
i Fpc-i.k distinctly.
I
I "THE SURPRISING thing is
thi.t many of these speech lauits
wtf-m directlv from the parents,"
Dr. Wiley says. "Parents who con
Uinually nag and scold their chil
idien. or believe in the old adage
that children should be seen, ana
not heard, deny their children the
right to develop normal speech.
"We also find a direct relation
ship in many cases between
'sloppy' speech habits in parents
which aie picked up by their chil
dren." DR. WILEY points out that
speech habiU are formed in chil
dren at a time when the influ
ence of the parents is the greatest
the first six years. This, he
says makes the home environment
an especially important factor in

the child's development of good
speech and habits.
Now, says Dr. Wiley, since
speech is an almost universal form
of communication It becomes dou
bly important in the school age
years that a child learn to hear
wnll and KDeak distinctly. Many
cases have come to the University
clinic, according to Dr. Wiley,
where poor speech and neanng
habits developed by youngsters
have led to the notion that the
child is mentally defective. Diag
nosis and speech correction ther
apy have shown Dr. Wiley that
'dumb' boy in the back seat isn't
'dumb' at all. He simply couldn't
hear, perhaps, or speak well.
THE UNIVERSITY'S summer
speech clinic accepts 50 children
each year. This year's enrollment
is typical. Most of the cases are
articulatory problems. Other cases
include the cerebral palsy and
cleft palate cases.
The children attend the clinic
for two hours a day for four
weeks. A fee of $15 is charged
for each child which, along with
gifts from interested outside agen
cies, make the project self-supporting.
In addition to Dr. Wiley,
the staff includes Miss Lucille
Cypreasen, supervisor of retrain

In 1943 Dr. Jorgensen joined
the Manhattan Project and went
eventually to Los Alamos, N. M.,
where he assisted in putting the
atomic bomb together. He re
turned to the university in Sep
tember, 1946, and since has been
actively engaged in research in the
borderline field between nuclear
and gas conduction physics. He
recently was awarded a $10,000
grant by the Atomic Energy Com
mission to carry on work in this

ing woik and Harlan Adams,, in
structor ' in speech correction.
About a dozen graduate students
in speech, many of them public
school children, assist in the clin
ical work.
ANYONE VISITING the chil
dren's clinic might be surprised
to find the children having a good
time. Dr. Wiley points out. The
clinic operated on the theory that
speech correction can be fun. "It
is a psychological tact tnai cnu
dren learn faster when they en
joy their work," Dr. Wiley says,
"and therefore much of the re
education work is done through
play activities."
Dr. Wiley says the clinic is
serving two major functions. The
first is to help children develop
normal personalities through prop
er speech and hearing habits. The
second is giving practical speech
and hearing diagnostic and cor
rective training work to dozens of
young men and women who will
teach in Nebraskas public schools.
Speech teachers face a big prob
lem in Nebraska's public schools.
An estimated 32,000 pupils suffer
from hearing loss or speech dif
ficulties. Most of them can be
helped.

largest of that group never to be
granted degrees from the Univer

a final report, properly signed,
indicating the completion of all
requirements for such a degree.
That statement is due today.

Theater

"Hay
towards
Fev
ei
The house was packed for the
University theater's rendition of
Noel Coward's ever-hilarious
"Hay Fever," Thursday night.
The script, certain to wring a
laugh from the most lethargic
audience, did.
The production directed by Max
Whittaker, overcame tremendous
technical difficuities in the Union
ballroom. Unfortunately it was
all too obvious that "their equip
ment was shewing." None-the-less
the cast was ably supported
by good crew work.
BLANCHE DUCKWORTH, of
"Lady Macbeth fame, inimitably
imitated the inimitable Judith
Bliss to her teeth. Miss Duck
worth, whose contributions to
University Theatre have always
been of the finest variety, added
"Hay Fever" to the growing list.
In spite of his relatively re
cent advent to the University
Theater, was a well-chosen play
to subdue most of the earmarks
of the novice. Newcomers Mary
Lou Thomson and Bud Downing
were also surprising.
THE PRODUCTION, as a whole,
was definitely amusing. Although
the action dragged at times at
the end of the first act we feared
that even artificial respiration
could not bring it back the cast
seemed to capture the Coward
sprightliness.
All in all, Noel Coward's "Hay
Fever" given by the University
Theatre, was a well-chosen play
with all the earmarks of good
direction. Characterization was
adequate, in most cases even
funny.
