MURALS PROJECT OF ART I CLASS "Let's make lines going this way." "No, I think they should curve around to carry people's interest on to our next scene." This is the conversation that typifies Miss Josephine Burley's Art I class when they become en­ grossed in their latest project—mur­ als. Divided into five groups, each one is developing its own " wall paint­ ing." At first it was feared that all the mural themes might lean toward the musical side as three-fourths of the class are reported to be music majors or minors. However, only one group fulfilled the prophesy—their idea being adopted from the opera Aida. It will be portrayed in a spat­ ter and paint medium. The other sub­ jects chosen are "Mother Goose Rhymes" in chalk, "Life in a Dorm" in paint, "CWC, Alma Mater" in chalk and an abstract application of the adventures of two imaginary charac­ ters in chalk. These murals will ex­ tend to as much as fifteen and twenty- one feet in length. This project when completed will be a culmination of the students' design and figure study and will serve to help them see the relative value of a num­ ber of parts as they apply to a whole. Also the groups are learning the social value of the pooling of effort and ideas. LUTHERAN CLUB PLANS SOCIAL The L. S.

Maybe some of you didn't even know there is an orchestra on the campus— but there is. Miss Lois Miller is the instructor and it meets every Monday, Wednes­ day, and Friday afternoon during eigthth period. The orchestra started out with a small number of college and high scholo students and three faculty mem­ bers. New members have been join­ ing, and now nearly every section is well represented. The members have been practicing conscientiously and are hopeful that some d^ty in the future they may put on a concert. BEWARE THE DOG ABOARD A COAST GUARD AT­ TACK TRANSPORT AT LUZON— (Delayed)—Japanese occupants of the city of Lingayen may have done their best to discourage the use of English in the local grammar school, but there was a decided laxity in the pro­ hibition of American signs, Yank in­ vasion forces noticed. Along the main street, familiar ad­ vertisements for popular brands of stateside soap and canned foods were much in evidence.

Army Revolutionizes Teaching Methods (By Associated Collegiate Press") The United States Army, today the largest educational institution in the world, "has brought about a revolution in teaching methods that will exert a growing influence upon civilian schools and colleges, Professor William S. Lynch, head of the Department of Humanities in the Cooper Union School of Engineering, says in a study of "What Is Education Doing?" "There is almost unanimous agree­ ment that the Army and the Navy have done an excellent job in training for their definite purposes," accord­ ing to Professor Lynch. "They have had to do their work in a very brief period and they have been obliged to teach everything from spelling to Jap­ anese decoding." "In their teaching theJy have relied upon two main props—standardization and visualization. Parenthetically, we should observe that for much of the work contracted out to the col­ leges, a great deal of freedom has been allowed. Even here, however, there have been definite syllabi drawn up, it should be noted, by combined military and civilian experts." "Standardization has made it pos­ sible to economize in teacher training and has assured the authorities that individual courses will cover exactly what they are meant to. Visualization has meant that content material has been presented with dispatch and clar­ ity." "There is nothing new about either of these two techniques. The first, standardization, has fallen into some disi'epute in the last few years as the word came to take on the meaning of regimentation, a current smear word with which you damn anything you don't like. The second, visualization, is. as old as the drawings in the pre historic caves of- southern France. Nevertheless^ as a word it has been (Ctnfctaued en Frar)' Feb. 16,17, Date of Meet The Institute for School Lunchroom Cooks, sponsored by Central Wash­ ington college, the Washington State Home Economics association, and the State Office of Public Instruction, will be held at the College Elementary school on Friday and Saturday, Feb. 16 and 17.

I hope it will come soon, and come to stay ... And then there will be some black iijLen who can remember that with silent tongue, and clenched teeth, and steady eye, and well-poised bayonet, they have helped mankind on to this great consummation." These words were spoken "by another president, Abraham Lincoln, in another war, but so long as iwe have w$r and so long as the colored race fights side by side with the white race, risking the same dangers, facing the same death, they have a place on the positive side when this war is over. Hitler came into power by focusing the attention of the "Ar­ yan" race on a ininority, the Jewish race. In our country, the Negroes are a minority, but they are Americans and they are humans. Hath not a Negro eyes? hath not a Negro hands, organs, dfthensions, senses, affections, passions? fed with the same food, hurt "with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means, warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer .. . ? Booker T. Washington, the great Tuskegee sage, had a saying that went, "You can't keep another man down in the ditch without staying down in the ditch with him." In this way he tried to tell the South that there could be no regional prosperity as long as the Negro was kept in peonage, and lived in terror oit the constant threat of mob rule. But this does not apply only to the South. about the strikes and mob violence , in some of the northern industrial cen­ ters against the Negroes when they worked beside the white men and had equal chances for advancement? What of the Negro woman who was intimidated by a bus driver? And then what of the Negro soldiers who built one-third of the Alaska-Canada. Army Highway in a freezing temperature that reached 72 degrees be­ low zero on Christmas Day, 1942 what of the Negro engineers who spun a network of roads, whipped out steel carpets for land­ ing fields, raised airdromes and built docks where none had ap­ peared before in the South Pacific what of the Negro soldiers who were killed with the 92nd division in Italy what of the Negro field battalion in France who originated the gag, "Rommel, count your men!" then after they fired, "How many men you got now, Rommel?" Remember the names of these Negro sailors? Dorie Miller, the first Negro in the present war to receive the Navy Cross for heroism displayed at Pearl Harbor, now listed missing in action following the sinking of the USS Liscome Bay on November 23, 1943 Leonard Harmon, killed in action, in whose honor the De­ stroyer Escort USS Harmon was named and launched on July 10, 1943 and Coast Guardsmata Charles W. David, Jr., mess attend­ ant aboard a cutter, who gave his life in rescuing the executive of­ ficer of his ship and saved the lives of 100 others on a torpedoed transport. The Coast Guard cutter went to the rescue of a trans­ port in near-freezing temperature in the Alantic and David dived overboard countless times to aid men struggling in the icy waters. Negroes have gone in with the Second Marine Division on Saipan they have constructed airfields with the Seabees in the Solomon islands. The Gold Star hung in a Negro home has behind it the same heartaches as the Star in another home, and the Purple Heart worn by a Negro is won for the same thing as one worn by a white serviceman. In a letter from the South Pacific, a sailor wrote home to his Mother telling her about a Negro sailor who had given his life for a white buddy. "What was he fighting for, Ma? What did he have to give his life for?

The ribbon I want is to tie around the neck of Mowgli, my- stuffed giraffe, the cleaning fluid and brush I need to, clean Archibald" Van Dingleheimer, my panda bear, and the five dollars I will use to buy another stuffed animal as there are still a couple inches of unused space c-n my bed. To be in- vogue in college, one must have the bed com­ pletely covered by animals of all shapes, sizes, vari­ eties, and colors. The only trouble is, they frequently present' a, housing Unless one would just as soon sleep under the bed, it is difficult to find adequate sleeping- places for : the animals. After all, no one is so small that she can sleep with more than six or seven of the stuffed dar­ lings. Enter any room at about bed­ time and you will see drawers spilling from the dressers filled to overflowing with creatures of various kinds, waste- baskets filled with objects other than gum wrappers, chairs and desks con­ verted into sleeping places, while one must share her own place of rest with the excess. And this frequently in- volves some juggling to space one's self in between about seven animals. When you folks think of stuffed animals, what probably comes to mind is the curly teddy bear you gave me when I was two. Well, times have changed, and although curly teddy bears are still accepted, other varie­ ties * are preferred. For' example, there is the very popular panda bear, bunnies, dogs, elephants, giraffes, and other familiar animals. The person with the creative mind makes her own from her own patterns. Creatures with nine legs, fat little bodies and long skinny arms, and seven foot tails are familiar sights on dorm beds. Then too there is the little number that re­ sembles a. dust map and is usually called "Snookums." There is no end to the originality that can be em­ ployed in the creation of these ani­ mals. So if you will send me said articles, I will complete my array 6f animals. I After all, education is important, but what good is college if one isn't col­ legiate? • Lovingly, DAUGHTER. GUEST EDITORIAL By MARY LOUISE HUNTER, President, Inter-Varsity Fellowship Some of you have asked me, "What is Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship and what are its purposes 1" Well, it is a group of col­ lege Christian students meeting together for Christian fellowship. It is an inter-denominational organization and is to be found on the majority of the college and university campuses all over the United States,. Canada, and England. Inter-Varsity had its origin in England, as you may have guessed from the name of the organ­ ization. We believe that prayer and Bible study should have a place in the everyday life of every Christian. Each week we. have a scripture assignment which we study eveify day. Then, when we meet on Thursday, we pool what we have obtained from that week's study of a certain passage. We would be glad to have anyone in­ terested attend our Bible study meetings at 6:15 every Thursday evening in the Student lounge. The officers of Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship are Mary •Louise Hunter, president Arvilla Brown, vice-president Shirley Jean England, secretary Mary Ellen Meyer, treasurer Poimja Neubert, missionary chairman and Molly Hewson, social com­ missioner.

KUKULAN Have you ever, had an occasion to sit down at the Ellensburg bus sta­ tion and "watch the crowds gq by"? I doubt that anyone will answer "No." People themselves provide many hours of interest anywhere, but there is such a variety of them in this town. Extra color is added by farmers, who 'have left Bessie in the barn (or is that where they leave cows'?) and ventured away from their home ,en- ivironment for a short jaunt.. (tne~ thing that irritates me is the run- over heels on the "hi-heeled" boots some of the "cowboys" wear.. Sorta adds a little extry something to their already distinctive walk.) You can't overlook the sailors passing through from Farragut, some of them clad in newly issued navy blues, and quite definitely either out of high school or the other side of 35. "They're Either Too. Young or Too Old" can be descriptive of the military men on the home front now, instead of the civilians, can't it, huh? Then AT J, of us know those coeds from CWC who veritably topple out of those orT ange, dusty busses on a Sunday eve­ ning groaning, "Oh, my achin' head" I'm never going home on a weekend again, and ohmigosh, I didn't open a book all the time I was gone." And so, my patient readers, Life marches on, even in bus stations. It's really been commendable see­ ing that almost all the gals, after five months of dining room life at CWC are still on the beam about crashing the breakfast and lunch lines. Usually, you know, when an unwritten rule is put into play, peo­ ple are okay about cooperating for a short while, as long as it's a novel- most precious possession. He wasn't black then, nor was Pringle white they were only two Americans fighting side by side for a beiter world. "So while we are here fighting to preserve Democracy even if some of us don't know it—don't let us down at home by stirring up racial hatred. On the contrary, help us by - making sure there's equality of opportunity for all.... I may never be a hero, Ma, but I'm proud that I have known one, although I never really knew his hopes, his aspirations* or his peculiarities. Wish to God I had. Wish to God I'd known how to appreciate a man without considering the color of his skin." When we dig that ditch to put the Negro into, we go right, down into it to do it. We are going against our pledge of Chris­ tianity, we are going against our concept of Democracy when we discriminate against a man because of color, because he has not had the opportunities we have. ..... ~ - a V r»».?.• 1 Get the Neck „ Of the Duck (Through the courtesy of a fac­ ulty member.) ". \ Duck hunting is a great sport. 0.f course you need a license,, a duck stamp, a gun, plenty of shells, possi­ bly a few decoys, and a good dog. And then too, you'll have to wait until the season starts. : Having outfitted yourself with the necessary tools', you don your water­ proof coat, pants, and hip boots, and arrive at your favorite spot about half an hour before shooting, time* which is half an hour before spnrise, and grope around in the dark to get your decoys out and ready for the morning fUght. w I will never for­ ge t the time I s n e a k e d in on a bunch of ducks sit­ ting on a little lake. 'I had crawled on nay stomach for about a quarter of a mile through mud aiid water and was up close enough to i shoot. However, I waited and, waited to let the ducks swim around a, kit and. get into position so I could shoot several at once. And. would you be­ lieve it, just as I had six nice big mallards lined up, three geese swam in front of them and spoiled my sho$! Did you ever fall in over your head in water in the middle of winter ?: I did once trying to swing across a ditch on the limb of a tree. Well, the limb broke and there I was. I climbed out, took off my clothes, wrung the wa.ter out, put them back on, and kept right on hunting. Believe it or not, I was dry by noon and warm again. Of course the fun begins when you .get home and have about a dozen ducks to pick, clean, and getv ready for the oven. Then you begin to won­ der why you ever went duck hunting in the first place. Well, as I said, duck hunting is a great sport. Try it sometime. ty, but then laxness sets In ... various individuals "accidentally on purpose forget to follow through." Don't you think "the proof is in the pudding," and that the spirited way everyone cooperates is be-cause there s really a fine group on our campus? We have had many Friday night parties and dances since last fall quar­ ter. ' Crowds coming to them haven't been especially tremendous, but ev­ eryone attending has been peppy and enthusiastic. To each of these social functions, Open House included, in­ vitations are always extended to mem­ bers of the faculty. We students sin­ cerely wish that more of the profes­ sors would attend. This is one way, painless too, of becoming better ac­ quainted, all the way around, and it can be done in such a rollicking, warm- spiiited fashion. There is always the same group, a very small one, of fac­ ulty members in evidence, and our hats are off to them. We think you're swell in coming and hope you enjoy yourselves. Why can't you, the minor­ ity, try using your influence in get­ ting Misters X, Y, and Z, and Misses ' ' an" X into the swing -of stu­ dent's parties?- • v. V-1 : : -.

After she had spoken to the members on the activities of Campfire Girls, the members volun teered to take charge of some of the Campfire groups, to chaperons swim­ ming parties, and to help with hikes. During the business meeting a dis­ cussion was held as to whether the girls: should wear felt crimson' and black W's on their gym blouses. It was decided that it was optional. Bev­ erly Cox and Barbara Fulkerson were in charge of the meeting. The fresh­ men will arrange the next one. Miss Delores Garrison, the P. E. club ad­ viser, was present and also Miss Jessse Puckett.

Jack knife, swan dives, somersaults, and other dives were made out by persons interested, but no one had to figure out. the "belly" flops that were used most gen erously. Everyone knows . that all a person needs.-to do at the Y pool is dive in from one end, take three strokes and climb out at the other. * it's really1 wonderful, believe me! One would never tire if he swam all night. ' A n onlooker w o uId have thought Esther Williams had in­ structed some of the girls, b u t. further investi­ gation proved it was the summer swim class which has turned out a fine lot of swimmers. Girls who attended were Eloise. Tor­ seth, Margaret Holmi, Sally Ponton, Cornelia Anderson, Frances Rogers, Helen Ranger, Sally Gould, Joyce Price, Nina Stevens, Barbara Mouza- kis, Barbara Fulkerson, Bev Cox, June Fulbright, and Betty Bush. After this exuberant exercise the water-logged co-eds tripped back to Kamola hall for a,, program which fea­ tured Frances Rogers, vocalist Lois iRathbon, dancer and Joyce Pugh, pi-, anist. The refreshments consisted of sand­ wiches and cocoa which was very ap­ petizing for those who worked up an empty spot at the' swimming pool. But natu'rally, food is always good whether one has been swimming or not. After partaking of this nourish ment, the swimmers and. those who joined them, danced in Kamola's West room." - - - If those of you who missed the. af­ fair, hear of another swim $arty being planned, hold everything and' attend it, you won't be sorry. 7 THING - - - By BETTY JEAN BOYD The Washington State Cougars squelched the University of Wash­ ington Huskies' title hopes when they captured the conference game played at Pullman last Saturday night. Again six-footer Vince Han­ son came through, scoring 34 points to lead the Cougars on to victory. The final score: W. S. C. 61, U. W. 43. This put Washington in fourth place and Washington State now occupies the second place berth. To complicate matters in the Pa­ cific Coast Conference's Northern di­ vision, the Oregon State Beavers ttomped Oregon, the top notch team, 55 to 51, before some 7,000 basketball fans in Eugene last Friday night. Or­ egon State is now tied for second place with Washington State, which climbed by defeating Washington twice. Conference standing at the present time is as follows: ' Wins Oregon ... 8 Washington State.... 7 - Oregon State 7 Washington 5 Idaho ... 1 'Small Time' Athletes Up Mighty Losses 4 ' 5 5: 7 7. Ice skating enthusiasts will gather at the Seattle Ice Arena next week­ end to see the Pacific Coast cham­ pionships. They will begin Thurs­ day and wind up Saturday night. Gil Dodds, world famous distance runner, will be visiting various high schools and cities throughout the stat_ of Washington all this week to. dem­ onstrate his amazing stride in exhibi­ tions. He will have accomplishes something if only to show high schoo athletes how he "does it ' The commit tee in charge of his visit, in the in­ terest of the Young Life campaign, has'arranged a program enabling him to visit as many places as possible in the time he is here. He will be in Seattle and Bremerton from Febru­ ary 14 to 16. On the 17th he will journey to Yakima and from there to Selah and back to Yakima again. On February 19, he will be in Tacoma at Stadium high school, Lincoln high, and Clover Park high. From there he will travel on to Bellingham, Mount Ver^ non, Mount Baker, Nooksack, Lynderi, and Blaine. By BOB "RAPID ROBERT" LYNN We usuaily do not get the best the state high schools have to offer in the way of athletes but ws surely do a grand job of mixing together a g»ang of "just so arid so's" and coming out with champions. Yep, Washington State gollege and the University of Washington can have the big-name lads give Central Washington college a ggmg of unknown highly spirited hustlers as it has had in past years and we will do just as much, and just as good as our bigger sister institutions. Never have the famed athletes of Seattle, Tacoma, Spokane, Yakima, etc., whose names are always in the headlines, come to CWC to glorify themselves more on the grid field, the hoop court, or the cinder track. No, they always hit out for the "U" or WSC where the jackpots are bigger arid the odds of success are very much smaller. Bill, the big hefty tackle who played a fair game of tackle for Winthrop, is the kind who chooses to come to Ellensburg to further his education along with absorbing some more beatings on the foot­ ball field. He comes along with guys like John, who played a steady but far from spectacular hoop game for Kittitas, and Mike, who managed to gather a few points for the high school track team at Pine City. They come from eastern parts of the state, western, southern and northern parts. As individuals, they pack very little wallop but, wow, get them to­ gether and they are dynamite. Undoubtedly the secret behind it all is a a couple of fellows by the names of Leo Nicholson and Phil Sarboe. These two furnish CWC with as formidable a coaching staff as might be found in the Northwest. » Nicholson is the "guiding light" behind the Wildcat hoop teams, tennis and golf squads that have held a monopoly on conference trophies for the past 15 years. Also, Nick had his hand in on a number of football cham­ pionships before relinquishing the grid post at the close of the 1940 sea­ son. Sarboe—he had been here only since 1941 but in that time he tutored one WINCO grid championship team and two track title-holders before the war threw a knockout blow to his crown-gathering tactics. Well, to be sure, these same lads whose college careers were delivered a knockout blow by Hitler and Hirohito are back on their feet and are now doing a whale of a grand job of administering to those mustache-ed and buck-toothed "supermen." After the coming "hot time in the town of Ber­ lin" and the "round-up in Tokyo," the majority of former Wildcat athletes will be back at CWC. The sad part of the whole deal is that the greater pjart of the girls now at CWC enrolled here just when sports activity folded, and they will prob­ ably be graduating just as sports activity resumes. Nope, it was not their hick to be able to watch Sarb's gridders romp over Tomlinson field, Nick's cagers shoot and pass at the college maple court, Sarb's trackmen sprint around the cinder track, or Nick's racket wielders wham the ball across the net on the courts behind Kamola and Sue Lombard halls.

The Wolverines whooped and hol­ ered and yelled at the top of their voices on Tuesday night, February 6, when they won the basketball tourna­ ment for this season. The deserving winners took the ti­ tle of. championship from the Ama­ zons. The Amazons is the team which went 3 extra quarters with the Wild­ cats" and won by the hair-line margin of 3 points in the fourth quarter. It Was a sad case to see the Wildcats walk from the floor defeated after such a challenge, but they were real sports and smiled and talked of the rema^Kable playing that had been done by their opponents. The score was 16 to 8 in favor of the Wolverines. Joyce Johansson was high point scorer for her team with 6 markers, while Sally Gould chalked up 4 points for the Amazons. Everyone predicted the Amazons would take the Wolverines because of their slippery forwards and guards, and smooth teamwork, but the Wol­ verines were all out to win after hav­ ing lost two games previously, and succeeded. The girls participating in th^ tour­ nament game for the victorious Wol­ verines were Joyce Johansson, captain, Cecelia Cox, Rita Murphy, Lois Rath­ bon, Pat Casey, Beverly Dickson, Mick- ie Klock and Betty Jean Anderson.

JAP MORALE BAD ABOARD A COAST GUARD AT­ TACK TRANSPORT AT LUZON— (Delayed)—Among the first to greet Army assault troops and Coast Guard Beach party members when they land­ ed unopposed in Lingayen Gulf was an aged Filipino who identified him­ self as the retired principal of the local school. "Morale was not good among th'e Jap soldiers here in Lingayen," he confided. "Most of them were low in spirits, and took it for granted the Americans would return, even before you dropped the leaflets telling us so. "When we read their propaganda accounts in the newspaper about so many American ships and planes de­ stroyed, we always turn it around the other way in our own minds." The aged "receptionist," wearing a gaily decorated bedspread which his wife had tailored into trousers, said no other clothing was available in Lingayen. "We have made our own shoes—wooden sandals—for the past three years."

ABOARD A COAST GUARD AT­ TACK TRANSPORT AT LUZON— (Delayed)—The guy who got the big­ gest haul on the beachhead when the American forces landed unopposed in Lingayen Gulf was a five-year-old Filipino youngster whom members of a Coast Guard beach party nicknamed "Lem." Lem, whose wardrobe consisted of nothing more than a long, shredded blue shirt which extended below his knees, was showered with everything from K rational delicacies to candy and chewing gum. On the pocket of Lem's tattered shirt was written in careful, old-style handwriting: "I am an orphan. My soldier father died in action in Bataan." "If you refuse to be mine," cried the ardent lover, "111 hurl myself off that two-hundred-foot cliff." , "Aw," said the girl, "that's a lot of bluff." Carter Transfer Co.

The other day I was calmly walking through the halls, minding my own business, when all of a sud­ den I got the awful sensation of hav­ ing a gun poked in my ribs. Turning my head cautiously, I saw a diminu­ tive "Two-Gun Tommy" taking a fiendish glee in scaring me to death. He took one look at my face, and I guess that it must have frightened him a little, for he ran off, hollering at the top of his voice. I had no sooner commenced my walk again, than I heard some sort of strange gibberish coming from around the corner. My curiosity, getting the best of me, I peeked around the cor­ ner to see only three first grade igrls getting ready to get home. Well, that certainly didn't look strange, but just then the first little girl opened her mouth and there issued forth those strange sounds that I had heard. Af­ ter a question or two, I found out that she was only reciting the alphabet backward, and could she do it! Be­ lieve it or not, she said it just as fast backward as we do frontward. Isn't it remarkable what kids learn in school now? The rest of my tour continued very peacefully, and I ended at the chil­ dren's museum on the second floor. Here the children certainly deserve a big hand., for their own museum has as many curiosities and rare articles as many public museums. All these oddities and valuables have been col­ lected by the children themselves, either from home or from friends. You'll find everything from a com­ plete suit of armor to an Alaskan totem pole and a spinning wheel. The museum is growing every day and it is really remarkable the things that have been collected.

"The result will be unquestionably a great reliance on films, records, ex­ ploded drawings, slides, and all the other visual and auditory impediments which a technological and ingenious people will be able to devise. In this connection it undoubtedly will take time before a balanced attitude toward these tools is realized. A safe proph­ ecy would be that twenty-five years from now every school will have in its attic a pile of discarded and expensive projectors, voice recorders, grapho- phones, etc. "The fact that much of this type of Army surplus materials will go to schools and colleges after the war will reduce the burden to the taxpayers." "Radio, television, the movies have a great deal to offer as instructional aids, but they are not going to re­ place the teacher. On the contrary, they are going to call for the best teachers. They are not easy to use If they seem to be, then something's wrong. They tend to run away with the show if not kept under close con­S trol and once they have done that then the schoolhouse has become a movie theater—a not unplasant place to be, but one where the emphasis is on different things." "In any event, visualization is here to stay. The war's use for its econ­ omy and clarity has stimulated its appeal and developed its materials. I for one rejoice in the current interest in it, but pray that the academic world won't become so excited about it that it loses its head. Let's keep the black­ boards a few years more before re­ placing them all with silver screens. Let's keep a few books, books to be read and not just looked at for their animated cartoons."

The purpose of producing these paintings is to give the beginning art students a feeling of freedom in their experi­ ence with paint, to get over timidity built up from past art classes, and to get over bad habits that so often seem to develop in upper grade art- The pictures were developed from spots of different color and have no serious significance, but they probably would be comparable to a stream of consci­ ousness technique in writing. ety to which it belongs.

"Besides the current excitement about visual aids, there are a number of other quickenings of interest that are largely the result of the military's way of doing things. One of the most interesting of these has to do with the teaching of languages. Thousands of men and women have been taught to speak an amazing array of languages in a period of time astonishingly brief by the standards of conventional high- school and college teaching. It is not surprising therefore to see high schools and colleges revamping their linguistic methods."
