And then you are behind the

Lines come quickly. You're caught
in a spinning web, straining to

Good Habits
May Be Key
To Learning
By BEN McELVEEN
Whenever you find yourself
fliding off into daydreams or ir
-elevant meditations while trying
.o study, try this. Stop entirely
tnd stand before an open window,
>r take exercises. Then get to
vork with determination.
Do you find an increased amount
>f material to be learned, over
hat which you had to learn in
uigh school, freshmen? Here are
i few other brief notes or study
ng, thinking through subject
natter, and remembering it. Re
nember that the main way to im
>rove memory is to improve the
nethods of learning.
Briefly, stop frequently during
rour studying and check up what
rou have learned. Compel your
;elf to recall what you are learn.
Tg. Spend about 40 per cent of
,our time reciting to yourself.
Or, invent some artificial scheme
or learning and recalling material
which lacks rational association,
och as alliterations or acrostics.
'hat is, connect definitions by
iimilar letters or similar sounds.
For example, suppose you want
.o remember that the height of
he volcano of Fujiyama is 12,365

kre 12 months and 365 (lays in the
rear.
Another important rule is read
-apidly. Beware of "dozing"
tudy, or holding a book in front
of you and looking at the words.
;'orce yourself to read rapidly.
7hen stop and try to remember
vhat you have read. This may
ake practice, but inevitably will
ave time and gain much.
In closing, the spacing of study
ime is another secret. Experi
nents have shown that it, is better
,o memorize a certain amount of
naterial at intervals than to try
o complete the job at one 5itting.
However, in the event that some

cnowledge on this subject, check

and Carolina. Columbia, like
situated on hills.
Dr. Kulik attended the schools
of Kiev, graduating from the
University of Kiev in 1925. Later
he did graduate study at the uni
versity and in 1929 obtained a
professorship. Three years later,
in 1932, he began working in
the research institute, a division
of the university.
ARRESTED IN 1937
"In 1937, everybody, as well as
myseif, felt that any day he may
be arrested," Professor Kulik re
calls. Many of his friends were
arrested and "just disappeared."
One of these friends had spoken
out against the party and was
picked up. A few hours later
Dr. Kulik was arrested simply be
cause he was a friend to the
objector of the party principals.
He was released after one night's
imprisonment, but still he knew
that the secret police kept him
under constant surveillance. After
this episode, the professor began
to plan to move to the western
woril d.
When the Nazis began their
dIrive wvestwvard to the Ukraine,
he wvas ordered to go to Russia,
but managed to remain in Ukraina.
Under the German occupation of
his country, he still worked at
the university. In 1943, the Ger
mans ordlered all of the non
German population to leave Kiev.
Dr. Kulik, his wife, and mother
in-law were taken to a German
province on the Rhine. Here, he
was engaged in designiing civil
p)rojects, under an agency later
known as the Department of Re
search and Development.
When the war was terminated,
all Ukrainians born in the "astern
part of the country were to be
repatriated. Dr. Kulik escarped
repatriation by pretending to have
been born in western Ukrainia.
From Germany Dr. Kulik went
to England and did research for
Courtaulds Limited until 1951.
TO 'lU E USA
In 1951, Dr. Kulik came to the
United States to join relatives in
California. Here he taught at
Clearmont College until coming
to Carolina's Math Department
this year.
When asked if his students had
any difficulty understanding him,
he had only this to say; "If they
(10 they can always ask me to
repeat."
