Yup, DISTAR was the forerunner of Reading Mastery, which has changed very
little in the last few decades. Both DISTAR and Open Court were published by
SRA. DISTAR was developed in the 60s and published originally in either the
late 60s or early 70s.

Distar which was a forrunner of Open Court was, I believe, in the 60s or
70s. I am not sure I have the spelling right.
Hope this helps.
