books are indicated at three different levels of difficulty.
"There was apparently a great need for this study in the high schools," Oscar M. Haugh, professor of education, said. "It was the result of four years of intensive work by two graduate students and myself."
The graduate students who worked on the publication were Mrs. Oakie R. Gerakis, Byson, and Mrs. Margaret H. Anderson, Leavenworth.
Over 6,000 copies have been published. One copy was sent to every high school and junior college in the state.
The State Department of California has asked for one copy for every high school in the state.
