to armed services camps. More
than 1000 centers throughout the
Nation were the scenes of the
tests.
The examinations, probably the
largest mass quizZing ever under
taken, is the first of its kind in
the United States.
Draft boards will use the test
scores along with college grades
to determine who should remain
in college and who should enter
the armed services. The decision
rests at draft board level.
Seniors Get Break.
However, Selective Service has
recommended that seniors be per-
mitted to complete their educa-
ton and that seniors who want
to go on to graduate school should
be in the upper half of their class
or score rs in the test to be
eligible for deferment.
For juniors deferment is rec
commended if they are in the upper
three-fourths or score 10; for
sophomores who are in the upper
two-thirds or score 70; freshmen
should be in the upper half or
score 10.
The tests come almost stimuli
taneously with regular college end
of-the-year final examinations.
Applicants Deferred.
Draft-age college students had
until midnight last night to apply
for the tests. The applicants have
been granted deferments until
August 20.
In addition to those taking to-
days tests another 325,000 COL
legians will meet the draft quiz
either June Is, June 80 or
July 13.
During the three-hour test. the
students have $50 questions
divided into two sections-verbal
and mathematical.
Actual questions have been kept
as secret as hydrogen-bo data,
but here are couple of typical
questions that the youths may be
struggling with this morning.
Verbal-Precision of wording is
necessary in good writing; by
choosing words that exactly con-
vey the desired meaning one can
avoid Cd duplicity (2) incongruity
80 complexity a. ambiguity (5)
Mathematics-If one pound of
oranges equals to 4 oranges,
what is the least possible weight
in pounds of three dozen oranges,
6. 9, II, 16 or 18?
The latest electronic calculating
machines have the correct an
swers in their robot brains and

One of the most experienced
bunch of quizzers in the business,

the questions and will supervise
the examinations. All its staff
have doctor Of philosophy degrees.

Senator Pastore told reporters
the final amount will be either
of these two figures or perhaps an
in-between compromise.
But one thing is certain" he
said. THE bill we will report
won't be for less than SGT per
cent"
The average 6.97 per cent pro-
posal is backed by the Civil Serv-
ice Commission. Under this plan,
the entrance salary grade from
GS-1 to Is would be increased by
7h per cent. Within-grade sal
aries would be raised by the
amount provided for the entrance
salary increase. This would bring
the average raise down to around
Z per cent for GS-1 to Is en-
ployes. The $500 maximum in
crease restriction on employees in
GS-16 to 18 jobs would bring the
overall average increase down to
OSt pei CeIlI.
Senator Pastore's 8.2 per cent
proposal would give an 8.8 per cent
increase to entrance salary grades,
with the cash amount given to all
other steps of the grade. This
would give about an 8 per cent
average pay boost to GS-1 to Is
employees. The $500 maximum
raise restriction also contained in
the Pastore proposal would make
the overall average increase 80
per cent.
