News is conspicuously absent from the top 25 programs rated by youngsters in a cross section of radio families keeping diary records for the University of Illinois. Mr. Hileman, who cooperated in the general study, is now assistant professor of advertising at the State College of Washington.

Poisonous Mushrooms

The interest in wild mushrooms and the number of people who collect wild mushrooms for the table are increasing rapidly. Numerousinquiries are received by the botany department of the University of Illinois each season concerning the identification and edibility of various species. At the same time, whenever there is a good mushroom season, the newspapers report an increasing number of cases of mushroom poisoning. These facts indicate the great desirability of a wider dissemination of the knowledge necessary to distinguish intelligentlythe common edible and poisonous mushrooms. It was with these facts in mind that it was decided to prepare, for the people of the state, photographs and descriptions of a limited number of species, in the hope that it might help our friends to make use of the abundance of excellent food material that annually goes to waste in the fields and woods, without risking their lives in the act.

A Performance

AbstractChristopher Butterfield is a composer and composition teacher. His music has been performed across Canada and in Europe, with recordings on the CBC, Artifact, and Collection QB labels. He is currently the Director of the School of Music in the Faculty of Fine Arts at the University of Victoria. Christopher was born in 1952 in Vancouver, BC. He studied composition at the University of Victoria with Rudolf Komorous and at the State University of New York at Stony Brook with Bülent Arel. He was a performance artist, rock guitar player and composer while living in Toronto between 1977 and 1992, after which he returned to the University of Victoria as Assistant Professor of Composition.I studied composition with Christopher between 2000 and 2005. Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to sit down with him in Victoria. During our interview, I asked him about his life and work, and for his thoughts on how Czech-Canadian composer Rudolf Komorous has influenced composition in Canada over the last few decades.

The University

In the summer of 1954 the University of Illinois undertook an extensive archaeological village site survey of the Illinois River valley. The Illinois River, more than 250 miles long, is located in the heart of the great Central Plains, an essentially uneroded region of drift covered uplands, with a billowy surface and less than 1000 feet altitude above sea level. The river is the largest, except for the Ohio, draining into the Mississippi from the east. It gathers rainfall from about 25,000 square miles, almost half the total area of the state of Illinois, and flows into the Mississippi about midway between its head and mouth. It is located centrally on a venation of waterways stretching from the foothills of the Rockies to the Appalachians, and from the Great Lakes to the Gulf.

As a state university system planned for growth in the availability of distance education degrees, the presidents and the provosts decided to include consideration for the availability of student support services. To ensure availability of student support services for online students, college and university systems in the state developed and implemented a self-reporting tool, the Online Student Support Scorecard to measure the availability of those services at both the college and the university levels. Although institutions were offering many of the services identified in the scorecard as essential, institutions were struggling to provide some of the services. Differences also were identified between the types of services available at the state college system compared with the university system.

A total of 113 horseradish cultivars from the University of Illinois germ plasm collection at Urbana were evaluated for their reaction to Verticillium dahliae in the greenhouse following a root-dip inoculation. Root discoloration was rated 2 months after inoculation on a scale of 0 to 3 as follows: 0 = no symptoms; 1 = trace to less than 10% of the root cross-section with vascular discoloration; 2 = 10 to 50% of the root cross-section with vascular discoloration; and 3 = more than 50% of the root cross-section with vascular discoloration. The cultivars exhibited a large amount of variation in response to V. dahliae infection, with mean root discoloration ratings ranging from 0.2 to 2.6. The frequency distribution of responses of the 113 cultivars was normal, with a mean and a standard deviation of 1.2 and 0.4, respectively. Six cultivars, 635A, 1236A, 769A, 125A, 761A, and 28A, were identified as resistant to V. dahliae. The existence of resistance to V. dahliae in horseradish germ plasm from the University of Illinois collection is a great resource for the breeding of improved horseradish cultivars that will combine resistance to V. dahliae with other desirable characters.
