As Europe la boriously draws closer together the need for more and better consecs and simults is growing apace. More international con gresses, meetings and parleys mean more language barriers to be broken down. New Proffesions Consecs and simults are the new professions. A simult is one of those vacant faces, all lined up with earphones, that are seen behind glass from any international asrembly floor, steadily pouring into mouth pieces the running, simultaneous translation in several languages of what a delegate is saying. A consec is the translator who gets up after someone has made a 20-minute speech, or a long winded statement, and repeats, consecutively, the whole thing in another language. Their pri mary merit is that most of the time they make the meaning of a speech much clearer and gra matically better than when originally spoken. With European integration in mind, many Italian cities have set up interpreters' schools. These are the factories that produce the consecs and the simults. It has become fashion able to join these schools. Girls who in the past used to take art courses or other refinements are now flocking to them by the thousands. Only a few really make the linal grade after what is gener ally a gruelling three years of study of at least three lan guages. An additional five or six years "in the field" may finally produce a good consec or simult in more than one version, such as for example English into French or German into Italian, Oregon-grown fresh and lender fryer parts are priced for saving this weekend at Piggly Wiggly.
