This article, like that published in the spring issue, again finds fault with recent attempts by economic historians to rehabilitate the reputation of the late Victorian and Edwardian entrepreneur. It argues that, since after 1880 cost accounting became a “necessary” technology for good entrepreneurial performance, the revisionist economic historians' failure to consider institutional factors, like cost accounting, has led them to overlook elements essential to an appraisal of comparative entrepreneurial performance. The growing inferiority of British costing methods, as opposed to American and German, moreover, meant a relative British entrepreneurial failure.

The Northeast Modern Language Association had a very productive year. Membership now numbers 1,000 (roughly), and although the strike caused obvious difficulties for members located in Canada, even that “blank” seems now to have regained constituency. Modern Language Studies, the periodical sponsored by the Association and published at the University of Rhode Island, appeared with predictable regularity—a fall issue, a spring issue—under the editorship of Edna Steeves (for English manuscripts) and Armand Chartier (for modern language manuscripts). Happily, the arrangement will continue an additional two years, at least, for the agreement between the University of Rhode Island and NEMLA has been extended through 1978, including a partial subsidy by that University. A faculty member of NEMLA, for $6.00 ($3.00 for graduate students), has received two issues of MLS and the chance to attend the conference, scheduled this year at the University of Vermont, Burlington. (Membership dues will rise to $10.00 for faculty and $5.00 for students this September.)

This represents the second in a series of three articles by John F. Cawley and his associates on mathematics and learning disabled students. Based on information gleaned from the literature as well as an extensive data pool collected by the authors, the present article includes an interpretative review of the characteristics of learning disabled youth as they relate to mathematics. The authors delineate the many facets of failure with which the learning disabled youngster is faced. A set of discriminators are specified for identification of certain subgroups of learning disabilities. Finally, the data presented are shown to provide insight into assessment procedures for youth with disabilities in mathematics. The final article in this series on mathematics will appear in the Spring issue of the Quarterly. The focus will be on problem solving and the application of mathematical skills and concepts to “real-life” situations.
