SPELLING LIST 

-FOR INTERSCHOLASTIC LEAGUE 
SPELLING CONTEST : 1955-56 SCHOOL YEAR 

BUREAU OF PUBLIC SCHOOL SERVICE 
DIVISION OF EXTENSION : THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS 

PUBLISHED BY THE UNIVERSITY TWICE A MONTH. ENTERED AS SECOND­
CLASS MATTER ON MARCH I2, I9I3, AT THE POST OFFICE AT 
AUSTIN, TEXAS, UNDER THE ACT OF AUGUST 24, I9I2 

Foreword 
THIS BULLETIN contains three lists, each of which is designated as a source of words for the League spelling and plain writing contests in the respective divisions. The words are carefully selected and are supplementary to the State Adopted Texts, Grades Five to Eight, in­clusive. Few of the words appearing in the lists will be found in any one of the adopted spelling texts, or in the League Lists of 1954-55. 
Pupils are required to spell only the words in Roman type; words and phrases in italics are explanatory and chiefly for the purpose of helping the pronounced distinguish between words having the same or similar sound. 
Corrections of misprints or other errors in the word lists appear in the Official Notice Column of the Leaguer. Teachers who report errors to the State Office do the League a real service. 
The present adopted spelling texts contain excellent suggestions for teaching spelling, and these plans and devices may well be used in teaching pupils to spell the words in these lists. 
This is not only a spelling, but a "plain writing" contest. More papers are rejected by the State Grading Committee on account of illegible writing than on account of incorrect spelling. Many grading committees do not seem to realize the importance which is attached by the State Committee to "plain writing." A special circular entitled "Writing Er­rors," which contains many illustrations of malformed or illegible letters, is sent free of charge on request of any teacher using this list. 


Prices 
This bulletin is sold at 5 cents per copy; 50 cents per dozen; $3.00 
per hundred. No League bulletins are sent C.O.D. Stamps are not accepted in payment for the lists. For additional copies of this bulletin address
