EDITORIAL 

In March 1962, Professor  C. J. Dreyer succeeded Professor  Hurst as Chairman 
of  the Executive Committee. We welcome him most cordially and assure him of  our co-
operation at all times. 

This issue of  the Journal of  the South African  Logopedic Society consists of 
articles by overseas contributors. 

Ruth Clark worked in South Africa  some years ago and we are privileged to 
publish her review of  recent research on the parietal lobes, proprioceptive Sensibilities and 
tactilc and kinesthetic abilities in speech production — avenues of  investigation which 
offer  exciting possibilities for  future  work. 

Felix Trojan and Herta Weihs have provided us with some idea of  the Conti-
nental approach to speech and voice therapy. Their discussion of  factors  relevent to a 
correct diagnosis of  a speech or voice disorder covers a wide field  and is most interesting.
