Bolinger Plans Assault On Linquistic Dictators
What the anglophile “leisurely-literary group” has to do with the way English is spoken will be one of the facts explained today at 3:15 in the art and lecture room of the University library when Dr. Dwight I. Bolinger, associate profeasor of Spanish, begins tile first of the annual lecture series of the College of Letters, i -----
Arts, and Sciences.
Titled “Linguistic Dictators,” Dr. Bolinger's lecture deals with the problems arising from Purism, an attempt to superimpose upon the English language a set of arbitrary rules of usage.
FAULT OF PURISM “One of the faults of Purism," observes Dr. Bolinger, “is that it took its set of rules from one group

Now that the time for your five-weeks tests is about here, are you ready to caarge your major? If so, don't drop those courses—yet—go to the veterans vocational guidance center where selected personnel are ready to help GIs find out what training is best suited to their abilities.
Dr. Don D. Prosser, director of the guidance center, emphasizes that this service is operated by the university and the Veterans Administration free of charge to vets and is not subtracted from their benefit* under the GI bill. To date. 6600 veterans have taken advantage of this opportunity to determine their major interests sxnee 8ept 1946.
“Many veterans now in school have had their choice of a career verified by the results of these tests, and in cases where testing has shown a lack of aptitude for a chosen field, the person can see what his chances are to succeed in this work.” Dr. Prosser said, “and many times the student has changed to an allied field with notable success."
Seventy-four interest and personality inventories, aptitude tests, and work samples are available to the vet, from w.iich ne can choose any number for testing. The time required varies from 4 to 20 hours depending on how many tests are desired. the results of which are confidential
New tests are constantly being devised, 21 having been added since last spring, among which the primary business interest test, which tells aptitude for general business jobs, is taken most often. Another new innovation is the data now available to students doing research for term papers and theses, the center.
“Scheduling for vocational tests is now running a day ahead and we can take veterans promptly if they will make an appointment.” said Dr. Prosser. The center is located on the third floor at 737 West Jefferson and the telephone is PRos-pect 3308.
Lyddon anti-proportional representation amendn^-at reflected the views of Blue Key, national men s VJnorary fraternity, of which he is president.
“Blue Key is a nonpolitical organization,” he said. “It does not take political ‘stands.’ In mentioning that I am president of that organization, it was intended for identification reasons and does not mean that Blue Key as an organization supports my personal political views.”
REPORTER’S MISTAKE
A DT reporter misinterpreted Dobkin's remarks when he wrote that Dobkin would support Joe Flynn in an all-out attack on Cliff Lyddon’s proposal to abolish inclusion of the Hare PR system in the new constitution. Dobkin’s remarks were directed against supporters of the proposal, since the controversial section was originally written into the constitution at his insistence and approved by the senate, he said.
“I am not connected politically | with the Unity party or IFC on any political issue,” Dobkin stated.
“and when I take a stand on an issue that results in my being on the same side of an issue as the
