Y.-..WI Your bright young son or daughter may be a whiz at reading Goethe in the original Oerman. But when -It comes to speaking the language. it s enough to maKe a Teuton s hair stand on end. About half the nation's college students grinding away trying .to learn now to spcac a loreign lan guage are wasting time, says Dr. Albert J. George, head of Syra cuse University's department of romance languages. But, he adds, it's not their fault. It's the way languages are taught ' Most can learn to read and write a foreign language. Dr. George concedes, but grasping the tricks of tongue twisting so a Frenchman , or German under stands what they're saying is an other matter. Present teaching methods just don't do the job, he says. , Dr. George, with Dr. Luis M. Di Carlo, executive director of the university's hearing and speech center, think they have a remedy. They believe they have found a way to predict, before time and money is spent, whether a certain student will' be able to learn to speak a foreign language fluently and to understand the rapid-fire phrases of a foreigner. If their predictions are correct. i-faai in ry !

The Idea was born this way: Dr. George was given a group of 40 foreign students, -who could read and write English, and asked to teach them to speak it during a six-week orientation course last summer. With Dr, Di Carlo, an expert in remedial speech work, he tested the students for. sense of rhythm and pitch variation, ability to repeat sounds and re member them. : The students then were broken up into two groups. One was taught by the usual methods, the other by one which stressed using their abilities in rhythm and memory of sounds. , At the end of the test period, those taught by the new method proved far more capable of speak ing and understanding English, Dr. George reports. -The two professors refuse to dis cuss details ot the methods they use to determine a student's abili ties until a vast statistical study Is completed with a pilot group k READ SAVE 45. m555" V2" DIAL C I RAM I C F R U IT S LI AF SERVER - - K 7vfQ Many lervinguiei, gay colon aium T? molU": 11 1 1) IClO ' HO MONEY DOWN .
