Talk by Crafton Highlights Dinner
Awards for outstanding work in the Department of Speech and Drama were presented yesterday evening at the department's annual awards banquet, highlighted by a rib-tickling talk by Allen Crafton, professor emeritus of speech and drama.
Prof. Crafton spoke on "The Rise and Fall of Speech Arts," which he said was taken "from the natural law that everything that goes
up must come down, including balloons and Democratic administrations in Kansas."
Prof. Crafton traced the history of the department from its beginnings in the basement of Green Hall to the old Chemistry building to its present location. The audience was continually laughing at his typically-Crafton comments.
WILLIAM CONBOY, chairman of the department, served as master of ceremonies for the dinner, attended by nearly 200 persons in the Big Eight Room of the Kansas Union.
"Photo-finish" ties marked competition for many of the awards, and two new awards were initiated. The first annual Allen Crraft Scholarship Award of $150, given to a junior majoring in speech and drama for outstanding scholarship and performance went to Marilyn Miller of Olathe.
The first annual merit award for outstanding teaching by a beginning assistant instructor in the Speech I program was given to Mrs. Jan Timmons, Lawrence graduate student, and Roxon Behl, St. Paul, Minn., graduate student. Both received certificates and $50.

Wall Street Firm Probed
WASHINGTON — (UPI) — The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) focused its investigatory spotlight today on the biggest stock brokerage house in the nation—Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith.
Donald T. Regan, vice president and secretary of the firm, was scheduled to testify as the SEC resumed a public hearing into training and supervision of securities salesmen.
The hearing is one aspect of a far-reaching SEC inquiry into the entire securities industry. Congress authorized the investigation last year and now is considering extending it for three months to April, 1963. The SEC has said it needs the extra three months to do a thorough job.
Merrill Lynch, as the firm is generally known, led the stock brokerage industry last year with income of $181 million and profits of $22 million. It had 535,000 customers, according to its annual report, 148 offices in this country and abroad and 8,700 officers and employees.
Backus to Speak
The World Crisis Committee will sponsor a talk by Oswald P. Backus, professor of history, on the "Class Structure of the Soviet Union," at 8 p.m. tomorrow in Room 305 of the Kansas Union.
