Scenes Show Vets At Play
With each of the displays, there is a photograph of disabled veterans participating in the sport portrayed. Miss Marietta Higley, 1950 University graduate in occupational therapy, appears in one of the photographs. She is assisting a vet to learn one of the games.
An unusual miniature display showing disabled veterans at play is being shown in 330 Strong hall until Saturday afternoon.
The display includes small scale sports equipment, wheel chairs, and men made of pipe cleaners. It was made at Wadsworth Veteran's hospital to show some of the recreational activities used by occupational therapists in aiding the restoration of injured muscles of disabled veterans.
The models include replicas of basketball games, table tennis, volleyball, ring toss, and other sports. The pipe cleaner men are veterans, and in many of the settings they sit in small wheel chairs. Each of these games is played with the objective of strengthening some particular muscle which has been injured or damaged.
The project is titled "Remedial Games" and has been loaned to the occupational therapy department by the Wadsworth hospital to be shown in connection with the high school art conference at the University this week.
Miss Nancie B. Greenman, assistant professor of occupational therapy, said that recreation represents only one of the many ways in which occupational therapists aid veterans to become rehabilitated.
One scene of special interest, is a basketball goal surrounded by vets in wheel chairs. Basketball helps to develop the arm and shoulder muscles of disabled veterans.
At Wadsworth hospital, there are eight occupational therapy units, and each teaches the men in the hospital some type of activity, such as wood-working, typing, leather-work, and other skills which will require using injured muscles.

Students To Travel To Hear 'The Messiah' Palm Sunday
An added orientation in American life will be provided some of the foreign students at the University when they travel to Lindsborg for the 192nd rendition of "The Messiah" on Palm Sunday.
Charles Satterfield, College junior, is the organizer of the project. He acted as an executive board member of the Kansas Commission for the U.N.E.S.C.O.
'Wearin' O' The Green' Again Will Mark St. Patrick's Day
The "wearin' o' the green" will again mark the tradition of St. Patrick's day, which will be observed this Saturday.
Traveling in the new University bus and in cars will be 23 foreign students representing 13 nations. Twenty-nine Americans will accompany them.
Why is green worn? Because Ireland is called the Emerald Isle and green is the color of the emerald jewel. Ireland was the homeland of the apostle, St. Patrick, who explained the dogma of the Holy Trinity by the shape of the shamrock leaf.
The hop clover, the white clover, the wood sorrel, and the black medic have all been claimed as "the original shamrock" of old Erin by various researchers.
St. Patrick, who is thought to have lived about 389 A.D., supposedly expelled from Ireland all snakes and venomous reptiles. They say, "He drove the frogs into the hogs, and banished all the vermin."
The celebration of St. Patrick's day has become a universal custom. So far as records show, New York City first observed St. Patrick's day in 1762. Today, the state of New York has a larger Irish population than the Irish Free State. Dublin itself does not afford so much pomp and ceremony on St. Patrick's day as does New York City, or, for
that matter, Boston or Chicago.
The Friendly Sons of St. Patrick of Washington inducted President Truman as a honorary member in 1946. This marked the second time a chief executive of the United States was awarded the distinction. George Washington was first in 1781 when the organization presented him with a gold medal.
So, if on Saturday, March 17, you see students wearing green and holding their heads a little higher than usual, you will know that their actions are due to the Irish in them.
Although the fame of Ireland's patron saint has been growing for fifteen centuries, there is today apparently only one town in the whole world which is called St. Patrick. It is in Clark County, Missouri. Founded about 1840 by a band of Irish immigrants, it now has a population of 53. On St. Patrick's day, its postmaster stamps the town's postmark and a big, green shamrock-on all outgoing mail.
the trip also will provide some informal instruction in Kansas geography. Satterfield is supplying each foreign student with brochures provided by the State Geological survey at K.U. and the state highway department. These will pinpoint scenic Kansas and historical points of interest along the way. The group plans to arrive in Lindsborg in time to view the large art exhibition assembled for Bethany's music week.
The entire trip will be made Sunday.
The singing of 'The Messiah' by these rural people of Lindsborg, now a nationally recognized festival, gives vivid expression of a staunch faith in God, Satterfield said. "It strikes home with clarity the point that our fortresses are not only physical, but spiritual as well."
Knowing that most foreign students were unaware of this aspect of American life, he decided to do something about it.
Campanile Model Is Shown
A former student at Bethany college. Satterfield considered the presentation of Handel's great oratorio by Bethany and members of the community as a unique, but truly expressive piece of Americana.
He solicited funds wherever he could to assist the financing. The contributions thus far have reduced the cost to each foreign student to about $2 each.
A balsa wood model of the memorial campanile is on display in the alumni office. The model was made by Allyn Browne, business senior.
The model is 18 inches tall and was built on a scale of 1 to 80. Sixteen silver bells are fastened in the tower. The real campanile is to have a 53-bell carillon.
Browne estimates that he spent 29 hours building the model.
