ST. AMANT Los Angeles - (UPQ - An oia but very simple method of English language instruction is in use at the University of Southern California to help the wives of foreign students feel at home in strange sur roundings. The informal program was started by a group of faculty wives headed by Mrs. Milton Kloetzel, wife o the graduate school dean. A half dozen non-English-speaking wives of students en listed for the program and Mrs. Kloetzel reported they had great success in learning basic words of English and r Make a good wear Jfei 7 mcruGS nriu lit.

The method used is the "each one teach one" system devised by Frank Laubach, an American missionary who taught English to jungle peo ple in the Philippine islands 30 years ago. The faculty wives who vol unteered as teachers attended classes to learn the method. Then they paired off with the students' wives one from Iran, two from Egypt and others from South America. "The teachers do not have to learn the foreign language of the pupil," Mrs. Kloetzel said. "The teaching is done with charts and simple draw ings and the pupils learn to speak, read and write Eng lish simultaneously. The charts are really very effec tive. The letter 'b,' for ex ample, is illustrated with a bird. The teacher repeats the sound and points to the bird. The system is based on the idea that if you hear a thing repeated five times it is yours. Sentences "From the letter sounds, the students progress to a sim ple sentence like 'this is a bird' and so on through the alphabet." "The method is fascinat ing," Mrs. Kloetzel said. "A person following it will have a basic speaking and reading vocabulary of the 800 most used words in the language enough to read signs and labels on cans and to partici pate in simple conversation." She expects the learning group to be larger because of new enrollments of exchange i students in the fall and looks ! forward to helping the lonely I young wives. "Many of them are very young," she says. "Some of them know a little English but are timid about trying to speak it . . . without help, they would look back on their years at an American univer sity as a nightmare of lone liness."
