Nason, Ed. D. University of Southern California Dear Dr. Nason: I am presently a junior n veterinary medicine. Although I experienced little difficulty in obtaining high school and in good grades in undergraduate work in college, my present regime is much more strenuous. I find that I am having increased difficulty in retaining the volume of intormation required to keep me out of the lower quarter of my class. How can I improve my memory? D. D., Columbus, Ohio Answer: The ich rtne on jli lea ian ccs hat At jili- ica- - .ure hat ius. i. SO pie I)- Keep your knowledge organized. mind is very efficient and recall is relatively easy when the ideas are associated with a place or location that you can isualize. Since you are dealing primarily with animal body structures and functions, associate each idea with, a mental picture. Not only visualize it in its proper location. but while holding the picture in mind, recall the consistency, the structure. the function, and the relationship of this body part and function to those next to it. Tljis is an efficient memoiy system. The more general information you can associate with a particular area, the more detail you can attach to it and thus have it all in your mind nr, a ready recall basis. Dear Dr. Nason: Our son is a very bright child. At 20 months he could count to 10 and say much of the alphabet. At 3, he could read many words in books or magazines. Now, at 6. he enjoys looking at a child's encyclopedia. When he comes to us for help with words, we of course give him the help he desires. We do not push him in these Activities.

Often the decision to accept or refuse credit for a given course is dependent somewhat on the students overall record, particularly in private colleges there is often no set rule. This is as it should be. An admissions officer can then give a student the advacned standing he deserves based on his entire previous hard-and-fa- PTt SH'IVES. Cecilia Akana is now old.

Dear Dr. Nason: I have attended coUege for two years and plan to return. I have been told that this college is not accredited to the State Board of Education.

But an earthquake is almost certain to be postponed. April 22 is the eentennary of Lenin's birth, an all important anniversary that would hardly be marked by the rise and faU of competing members of the hierarchy. Then for some time later in the year Moscow has announced a congress of world Communist parties with unity as the obvious goal. As nearly as a cautious Communist loader could, Brezhnev the other day put his countrys economic troubles on the line.
