SWAMP SCENE

The cypress trees lif t their skeletal
arms , entreating the sun and yet
shutting it out. Through a leafy arch
the canoe enters a speckled world.
The shif ting, inconstan t ligh t plays a
game wi th the eyes. The mind learns
only through the eyes; there is no
hearing at first.
One wonders how yellow can turn
to blue, #and then blue to green. The
shift is 'not sharply perceptible, but
gradual , like a diffusion of gentian in
water. Shadow is no longer an ephemeral thing; it is concrete. One feels
that he can reach out and grasp it,
hold forever the unfamiliar hue, sensual and exciting.
Now hearing, crying out at seclusion from such an enchanted world,
p ushes away the visual beauty, but
only to a point where it becomes the
perfect background for sound that is
and yet is not . There is a rustle of
the tress , and yet no movement is
visible. A myriad of sound , taking advantage of sight' s near-recess, leaps
upon the ear . There is no source; it
is just there. The ear at first cannot
separate it . Then a focusing takes
place and th e sound becomes a chorus of beauty , no longer discord ant.
Still there can be no firm drawing of
bounds. There can be no stating that
this sound comes from this place and
is of this gender. For the sounds
keep their aura of mystery about
them , even while revealing their
beauty . *
The canoe pushes on from cloister
to cloister, each separate , still blending with its neighbor . Now light has
become a living thing, creating an
image and then , vexed at its workmanship , erasing it and creating one
anew. The movement of " t he canoe
aids the solar artisan , catching his
pigmen ts and spreading them out,
wave upon wave, to the perfect blend.
Then nature 's most skillful workman , d u sk , arrives. Th e eye is suddenly lost in a movement of light and
shadow too swift to be caught and
apprecia ted. Dusk evicts yellow first.
Orange and pale gold are banished
nex t. Purple and a ghostly blue become the lone tenants of a twilight
temple, not ye t invaded by black .
The beauty is no longer j oyous, but
of a foreboding cast. The canoe and
the water beneath it respond to the
urgent call of home.

A DYING SOLDIER'S DREAM

Some nights the wind howls loudly
through my room
And makes the embers glow a brilliant red
Which overcomes the darkness ' and
the gloom
And fills my heart with cheerfulness
instead.
I stare across the table at the wine,
And at the glass that's empty once
again,
And see around me all the trophies
fine

That line the knotty pine wall of my
den.
But then I find that this is just a
dream;
I see the facts that face me hard and
true,
And feel the strength of tropic sunshine's beam,
And wonder if my dreams can "pu ll
me through. "
The only things that howl in this
strange land
Are men whose blood has turned to
brilliant red
What once was white and spotless
land
But now is lined with bodies of the
dead.
The only hunting trips than men
take here,
Are trips from which they never may
return ;
There is no wine or even water clear
To overcome the pang of throat's dry
burn,
The only trophies on this island bare ,
Are Japs who tried to overcome the
free,
But found that free men figh t when
God is near
And faith in Him alone brings victory.
If only all men dreamed a dream like
this;
Of freedom , wine, or hunting trip and
den,
Then all the world would live in
. peaceful bliss
With brotherhood and fellowship of

men.

handful of "special" students once
served a university's needs, a coordinated system of expert psychological , vocational, educational and medical counseling and a battery of tests
have now been set up to aid the veteran. Civilian students are, of course,
given the same services.
Syracuse University , for example,
now offers routine hearing tests, remedial instruction in lip-reading and
corrective speech, and hearing devices for veterans with service-incurred or aggravated hearing disabilities. Civilian students also receive these advantages.
Finn in their belief that old methods of segregating the handicapped
belong back in the days of Peter
Minuit and witch burning, today 's
colleges expect disabled students to
undertake the regular curricular and
extra-curricular activities with only
a few minor adjustments.
At New Jersey College for Women ,
blind students follow regular courses.
In the science field , where there is
greatest difficulty, it has been found
in recent years thai botany is most
easily adapted to the blind student's
needs. Faculty members have devised
special laboratory apparatus geared
to the tactile sense. Using trays and
rubber tubing as principal properties,
professors created a series of experiments which convey through touch
what the microscope reveals to seeing students. Sightless students learn
to "visualize" plant characteristics by
touching enlarged wax models of
plant anatomy. Instructors dictate
the examination questions asked of
the class as a whole, and the blind
students type the answers. I n cases
where drawings are required , the
blind student holds the model, n aming each of its parts for the instructor. Where an experiment is necessary, blind students describe hov; it
is performed , indicating the apparatus involved and its function . According to the faculty , blind students
have rated among the highest in their
classes. Grace D. Napier , music najor , '44, and an accomplished organist ,
won a $440 scholarship for graduate
study at New York University . Mary

books and the machines to play the
records. Both were assisted by Morr istown Seeing Eye dogs. In many

According to a recent survey of
Mount Holyoke College, it was found
that crippled , blind and deaf students fulfill the same admission requirements , carry the same academic
courses and maintain high academic
averages with less absence than nonhandicapped students. Two disabled
girls were graduated recently with
special honors in psychology a n d
French , and the placement records on
those who sought jobs has been 100
per cent.
At their Bureau of Psychological
Services, the University of Michigan
tests and counsels veterans, provides
services for the blind , deaf and hardof-hearing, and trains persons with
all types of speech disorder. Services
for students with serious speech and
voice defects have also been included
in the University of New Mexico 's
schedule. At their Speech Workshop
it has been found that approximately
five per cent of all students have serious voice and speech defects such as
lisping, stuttering, stammering, speech
blockage or nasality. GI's are among
the highest percentage of those with
speech defects , with fourteen of the
one thousand students tested this
year suffering defects caused by intraining or battle-front injuries.
Although these services for th©
handicapped are conducted at regular colleges, the totally deaf cannot
take advantage of them. In 1894,
Gallaudet , the only college for the
deaf in the world , was founded in
Washington , D. C. It has grown from
a ^even-student venture to a Government-supported school for one hundred and forty-five. Fifteen others pay
seven hundred dollars a year for
tuition and board . Chosen on a competitive basis , students take regular
liberal arts courses , with men favoring denistry, ministry, chemistry and
drafting, and most girls homemaking
and teaching. A preliminary year in
the preparatory class insures a normal well-rounded high school record
before going on to four years of college work. Gallaudent students have
come from the forty-eigh t states ,
Canada , Ireland , Wales and Scotland ,
have their own sororities , fraternities ,
newspaper , play productions, athletic
teams and cheer leaders. Due to the
inability of linemen to hear signals ,
Gallaudet college organized the huddle system in football.
