The Third week was complet-
ed in the mems summer series last
week with no radical change
in team standings but with the

amusing how each new league

a few weeks Of play the scores
climb as the contest gets hotter.

tions available for a beneficiary who is over 30 when the insured veteran dies.
 Let's bring Joe Veteran back to life for a few years. Joe keeps his $1O,00O policy in force He dies ir 1886. His widow, Jane (beneficiary) is then 35 Fred, his brother, is still contingent beneficiary.
 Jane still would have two choices (options) as to ho wshe wanted to collect on the il,suraneF. Both would give her a life income, but there's some difference as to pay ments.
 Option l would pay Jane SAP a month for life. Option 2 would pay $39.9 90 for life.
 There's a reason for the differ ence. It lies in the guaranty that is given Fred, the contingent bene- ficiary. Option guarantees a minimum of 120 monthly payments. Option 3 guarantees that the value of the policy Gin this case $10,000) will be paid.
 DoRtgive up at this point There is just a little more.
 If Joe Veteran has named no beneficialies, then payments eff he dies) go to relatives in what is termed an "order of devolution. ''
 That just means payments would go to the wife Cor husband of an ex-GI Jane), then to child or children, then to parent or par ents, and then to brothers or sis ters. That's all there is to devolu- tion.
 The arrangement of the settle ments or options I've outlined will be changed if the National Service Life Insurance Act amendments are ever adopted. They're now some where in an avalanche of propos- als to Congress.
 I'll watch this amendment situa- tion and let you know when any thing happens.

You don't need to read this col umn today. Honest, it'll bore you It's about the choices or options available to the beneficiary on Ma tional Service Life Insurance pol icy.
 Catching a walters eye is diff cult, but not as hard as writing about NSLI choices or options. don't know any simple way of ex- planning them. But here goes.
 Let's use Joe Veteran as an ex- ample. He died. He carried S10,00C worth of National Service Life h. surance and had been paying the premiums right along.
 His widow, Jane, age 25, is the beneficiary. Joe's brother, Fred, is a contingent" beneficiary; that is Fred would be paid, if Jane died before all the insurance payments or benefits were paid to her.
 Jane doesn't get the $10,000 of insurance in lump sum. She has a choice of two methods of pay ment - Options and 2.
 She can collect $55.10 every month for 20 years. That's be a total of about $13,200. If she doesn't live 20 years, then Fred, the contingent beneficiary. would get the balance of the payments. That's Option 1
 Jane would have another plan to choose. if she liked it better. She realizes that at her age, 25, wo- man has a life-expectancy of about 38 more years. Yet if she takes Option l, she'll be only 45 when the payments stop.
 Therefore, she can play it safe, if she wants to, by collecting $36.20 every month for the rest of her life. If she lives her expected 38 more years, or if she lives 138 years, she'll still keep getting $36.20 a month. That's Option 2.
 There's a further guarantee un- der Option 2. It's what's called a value of the policy" guaranty. This guaranty is given if Jane dies be- fore she's received enough pay ments to total to $10,000, the value of the policy. If that happened, then Fred (the contingent tenefic- iary) would collect the monthly payments until a total of sl0,00O had been paid.
 Now let's look at the two op-
