Abstract
AN increased interest in crystallization phenomena, especially in polymeric materials, is shown by the number of publications devoted to the subject1. I originally published observations of crystal growth of a dislocation mechanism in polymeric material2; however, some observations remained unpublished and increased interest in this general area prompts this communication.
