Yale Makes Packaged Language Courses Public
Yale University through the Institute of Far Eastern Languages offers packaged language courses with printed texts and 11 to 12 hours of recorded speech. Under Gerard P. Kok the program includes Chinese and French with plans for Russian Korean and more. Aimed at raising spoken language in schools and colleges, the courses target areas with few native language instructors and will be experimented with in New Haven high schools. They are already used by Sarah Lawrence and Seattle Pacific colleges. Yale is the first non commercial educational group to offer such a program to the public.

Insects Seek Germ of Seed Corn for Food Says Entomologist
An entomologist from the U S department of agriculture explains seed corn is more vulnerable to insects because the germ has high food value. The germ attracts pests like the flat grain beetle almond moth and Indian meal moth, which can make early attacks on seed corn. A 3 to 1 mix of ethylene dichloride and carbon tetrachloride is cited as the safest fumigant to protect seed corn from damage.
