LOCAL STUDENTS TO STUDY IN GERMANY AND MEXICO The names of 92 Indiana high school students who will spend most of this summer in intensive language study in either France, Germany or Mexico were announced today at Indiana University. Prof. M. Phillip Leamon, director o fthe LU. Honors Program in Foreign Languages for High School Students, said the students were selected on the basis of merit from among 363 applicants from 47 Hoosier schools. The participants will live in private homes in Saint-Brieuc, France; Krefeld, Germany; or San Luis Potosi, Mexico, and will receive at least five hours of daily language instruction. They are pledged to speak only the language of the assigned country during the time they are in that country. French and German language students will leave the Bloomington campus June 7, and return Aug. 13. The Spanish-speaking students will depart June 13, and return Aug. 13. Once back in their own schools in September, Leamon said, the Honors Students will serve as special assistants to their teachers in demonstrating the use of the language to other students. They also will tell of their experiences to various civic organizations in their communities, and otherwise help strengthen the foreign language program in their schools. To be eligible for the program, a student must have completed three years of high school language training, and must be enrolled in a school which offers a full four years of foreign language instruction. Limited financial help is avalable in case the student’s family is unable to pay the full costs, which are $950 for France and Germany, and $650 for Mexico. The Honors Program is part of LU.’s state-wide efforts to improve the teaching of foreign languages. Now in its fourth year, the program has been supported largely by a Carnegie Corporation grant. Speedway students selected are: GERMANY —Bruce Beatty, Susan Betsill, Richard Vogel and Richard Wacker. MEXlCO—Walter Hocker and Barbara Zeph.
