INFORMATION ON TITLE 1 ALLOCATIONS WAS DISSEMINATED IN MONTANA THROUGH TELEVISION PROGRAMS, BULLETINS, NEWS MEDIA, AND PERSONAL INTERVIEWS. BY THE END OF FISCAL YEAR 1966, 288 OF 521 APPROVED PROJECTS WERE IN READING AND LANGUAGE ARTS. SOME OF THE COOPERATIVE PROJECTS ESTABLISHED ARE CITED HERE. THE BIG SANDY DISTRICT AND EIGHT OTHER RURAL DISTRICTS LAUNCHED THE CORRECTION AND PREVENTION OF READING PROBLEMS PROJECT TO REMEDY DEFICIENCIES IN VOCABULARY IN CONTENT COURSES, GENERAL READING ABILITY, AND READING READINESS. THE INVERNESS READING PROJECT EMPHASIZED A MULTIAPPROACH OF REMEDIAL AND SUPPLEMENTARY WORK FOR ALL GRADES AND USED INDIVIDUALIZED INSTRUCTION AND READING LESSONS TAPED BY THE CHILDREN'S MOTHERS. THE LEWISTON CITY SCHOOLS HELD SUMMER READING PROGRAMS FOR 253 STUDENTS IN GRADES ONE THROUGH EIGHT TO CORRECT POOR STUDY HABITS, TO IMPROVE THE STUDENT'S SELF-IMAGE, AND TO PREVENT THE REGRESSION BROUGHT ABOUT BY SUMMER VACATION. IN FLATHEAD COUNTY SCHOOLS, THE MOBILE CHILD WAS HELPED TO ESTABLISH BASIC SKILLS MORE QUICKLY THROUGH A HIGHLY INTENSIVE AND ENRICHED SUPPLEMENTARY PROGRAM EMPHASIZING WORD ATTACK SKILLS. THESE REPRESENTATIVE PROGRAMS INDICATE THAT THE REMOTE AS WELL AS THE POPULATED AREAS OF MONTANA BENEFIT FROM TITLE 1 FUNDS. THIS ARTICLE APPEARED IN "THE READING TEACHER," VOLUME 20, JANUARY 1967.

Respiratory minute volume (V e ) and oxygen consumption (V O 2 ) of freshwater turtles, Pseudemys scripta elegans , were measured at 10, 20 and 30 °C while the turtles breathed either air, 2, 4 or 6% CO 2 . In one series of animals arterial pH and P CO 2 , were measured as well and correlated with the ventilation. Inspired CO 2 caused hyperventilation which increased in proportion to either % inspired CO 2 or Pa CO 2 , and which reached about ten times the air-breathing ventilation when 6% CO 2 was breathed. The response was similar at each temperature. Ventilation (V e /V O 2 decreased with temperature with each breathing mixture, and, consequently, Pa CO 2 increased with temperature. The influence of temperature on the ventilatory control of Pa CO 2 when the turtles breathed air was the physiological mechanism responsible for the inverse relationship between blood pH and temperature.
