July 6, 1955 THE BUZZER Page Three Dr. Charles B. Price is New Student Personnel Director—English Staff Adds Dr. Aaron P. Small CEREBRAL PALSY CENTER IS PART OF REMODELING PLAN Remodeling of the Cerebral Palsy Center in the basement of the Admin- istration Building nears completion. Several sections of remodeled areas are almost ready for occupancy, ac- cording to Mrs. Irene Restad, occupa- tional therapist at the center. Children treated at the center are from all sections of Montana. Three therapists aid in training—occupational, physical, and speech. Different types of therapy are necessary as cerebral palsy is often a multiple handicap, affecting speech, hearing, and sight. Present enrollment of the C. P. Cen- ter is 18 children in school and 75 out- patients. Outpatients are those that come back for periodic treatments. Mrs. Restad pointed out that the cen- ter's purpose is to help the children so that they can return to the public schools. The State Board of Health, the Mon- tana Society for Crippled Children (Easter Seals), the Billings public schools, and the Eastern Montana Col- lege of Education provide funds for the center. Mrs. Restad said last week that ad- ditional help is needed to help feed the children each day from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon. Students at Eastern will be accepted. The pay is 70c an hour. Ad Building To Be Renovated Eastern bids fair to become one of Montana's most modern, up-to-date col- leges. Besides numerous other additions and improvements on the campus, the Administration building is undergoing extensive changes. With Dr. Robert Bain as color con- sultant, the main corridor is to be re- decorated in Niagara green and wine- berry. Entrance pillars of cardinal red will be set off with soft gray walls. Eight-foot fluorescent lights will be in- stalled. Room changes will include removal of the Registrar's office to room 109; the present office will be remodelled as offices for Dr. Hopkins, Dr. Price, and Mr. Aikins, deans of education, student personnel services, and basic curriculum. The guidance office, and office rooms for new professors, will occupy room 105, formerly used as the bookstore. Dr. Lowe's former office, room 106, eventually to be a conference room for the executive board, will temporarily provide office space for new professors. The former student lounge, room 103, is being used temporarily for piano classes. Architect Harry Loners is to remodel the men's locker room, providing more locker space and shower rooms. Special appropriation has been made for both (Continued on Page 4) Dr. Charles B. Price Two additions to Eastern's full-time faculty, Dr. Charles B. Price and Dr. Aaron P. Small, will begin their as- signments during the regular six-week summer session. Dr. Charles B. Price will assume duties as dean of student personnel services and also will teach two classes—sociology during the reg- ular six-week session and fundamentals of guidance during the post-session workshop. Dr. Price holds the A. B. degree from College of the Ozarks, an M. A. from the Y.M.C.A. Graduate College, Nash- ville, Tennessee, and a Ph. D. from Denver University. He comes to Eastern with a large reserve of experience. In addition to his affiliation with the public schools of Arkansas for eight years, Dr. Price was also Director of the Military Institute in Wheeling, West Virginia; served as Dean of Men, Cap- itol University; was five years in public FRONTIER SCOUT, EARLY DAKOTA NEWSPAPER FOUND IN BILLINGS ATTIC A newspaper, the \Frontier Scout,\ published at Fort Union, Dakota Terri- tory, in 1864, is for sale in Eastern's bookstore. Two issues of the early publication were found recently by Mrs. Cornelius in the attic of her newly acquired house. She has had these issues reprinted, and offers them for sale to the public for 25c per copy. Easter Montana, a part of Dakota Territory at that time, and all of Mon- tana's history has been affected by events referred to, or related, in these antique papers. All history conscious Montanans will be interested in them. Dr. Aaron P. Small relations work with the Department of Interior during World War II; and most recently was President of Lamar Junior College at Lamar, Colorado. Dr. Aaron P. Small, as Assistant Pro- fessor of English, will have classes in English composition and literature dur- ing the six-week session. One of his special classes will deal with literature of modern Europe during the post-ses- sion workshop. Dr. Small holds a B. S. from City Col- lege of New York, an M. A. from High- lands University, New Mexico, and a Ph.D. from Denver University. Before coming to Eastern, Dr. Small spent two years as a therapist, Veterans Hospital in New York, two years as high school and university instructor at Las Vegas, New Mexico, and until his appointment to Eastern, was a teaching fellow and instructor in Communications at Denver University. NEW PARKING LOT IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION Work on a new parking lot, just east of the Student Union Building, has been progressing satisfactorily despite un- usually heavy rainfall the past few weeks. When completed, the lot will have a 4-inch base of rolled, pit-run gravel, and a surface layer one inch thick con- sisting of fine crushed rock for a smooth facing. For essential drainage, there will be a grade of no less than 1 %. Completion of the lot is expected to help alleviate the present parking prob- lem at Eastern, especially in the area of the residence hall. The contract for the project is held by the Studer Construction Company of Billings.
