Dr. Chisholm To Address Semanticists
Scientific Language Enthusiasts Propose Los Angeles Chapter
Organizational plans for a Los Angeles chapter of the Society for General Semantics will get under way on campus tonight at a meeting featuring an address by Dr. Francis P. Chisholm, head of the English department, Wisconsin State Teachers college.
The proposed chapter plans to institute several groups composed of persons interested in the field of semantics for study in that and. related subjects.
Dr. Chisholm is at present giving a series of lectures at Occidental college under the auspices of Pasadena’s chapter of the society. He is scheduled to speak on “General Semantics in the World Today” at the SC meeting in 101 Harris hall, 8 p.m.
Semantics is a comparatively new field of study which attempts to treat language scientifically, stressing the need for exact, concrete meanings for every word to eliminate the present vague use of many common terms.
A number of books have come out within the last decade, one of the most popular being Stuart Chase's ‘Tyranny of Words.’’ Chase vividly demonstrates the need for a new treatment of language, illustrating his points by quotations from speeches and writings of philosophe •«, politicians, economists, and statesmen.
