Directional correlations and polarization-directional correlations have been measured for the 646-603-keV and 709-646-keV cascades in $sup 124$Te populated from the decay of $sup 124$Sb. Ge(Li) detectors were used in both spectrometers, one of them, a planar Ge(Li) detector as the linear-polarization analyzer for the $gamma$ radiation. Combination of the results of these measurements gives unique spin assignments of 4$sup +$ for the 1248-keV and 1958- keV levels. The determined E2/M1 mixing ratios are: delta (646) =0.00+-0.01 and delta (709) =0.02 $sup +0$$.$$sup 06$/sub -//sub 0/./sub 0//sub 7/. (AIP)
