ADDITIONAL CT TRAINING FOR
SOME WORLD WAR II VETERANS

The Veterans Administrator has
recently made a change in its reg
ulations in regard to trainees m
der the CT Bill which will afford
additional training to many elig-
ible veterans.
Prior to this change in regula-
tons, a veteran in training could
not secure approval for a change
in course unless an application for
such change was filed by him
while still actively pursuing his
course or while he was in tenn
porary interrupted status. He could
not secure approval for additional
education or training in normal
progression after he had satisfac-
torily completed his course.
NOW = The veterans applica-
ton for such additional progress
i've education or training, if re-
ceived by the VA within 80 days
after the completion of the course,
may be considered, provided that
following completion of his course,
the veteran does actually COM
mence pursuit of the additional ed
ucation or training on the first
date as of which enrolment of stu
dents in the course is permitted
or within 80 days., whichever is
later.
In those cases where veterans
previously have been denied the
right to resume training, the VA
plans to review and reconsider
such denials. There is always the
possibility that some meritorious
case may be overlooked in this re-
view.
All service officers and persons
interested in veterans affairs are
urged to call this important change
in regulations to veterans, educa-
tional institutions and training
agencies.
To summarize = Before this
change veteran could not be au-
thorized additional progressive ed
ucation or training after he had
completed a course. Now = if his
application for additional progress
i've education or training is received
by the VA within 80 days after he
completes his course, he may be
given additional education or train
ing. He, of course, must have ad-
ditional time to his credit and be
otherwise eligible.

AU Seeking 10 Boost
League Lead, Meets
Rando|ph-MacoIl

American University hopes to
extend its Mason-Dixon Confer
ence basketball lead to two full
games tonight when it entertains
Randolph Macon. a lead that
would stand for 10 days as most
Of the teams take time out for
examinations.
The Eagles have won all six Of
their conference games and there
are two other unbeaten teams,
Loyola and Johns Hopkins.
There will be q rapid change
in the conference picture after
the teams return from exams,
however, as Loyola plays a home
and-home series with both AU
and Hopkins, and Hopkins starts
its February schedule against
Hampden-Sydney, considered the
top team among the Virginia en-
tries.
Four Highly Rated i'm Loop.
American u. Loyola. Hopkins
and Hampden-Sydney are con-
sidered shoo-ins for conference
tournament berths. The other
four places appear among RAN
dolph- Macon, Western Maryland,
|Bridgewater. Baltimore, Roanoke
and Washington College. Catholic
U. has an outside chance, but its
overtime defeat at the hands Of
Randolph Macon last Saturday
put 1t two o,games back of the 800
mark with a tough schedule
ahead.
Randolph Macon brings a 81
conference record and SIS mark
for the season to AU tonight. The
Yellow Jackets. who upset AU at
Ashland, Va. last year, are led
by Jack Whitcomb. q former Will
son High star who topped con-
ference scorers last year with
27.1 average per game. They have
another former District scholastic
product in Jack Keely, who
played at Roosevelt last year.

to play Gallaudet tomorrow night.
AU To Use Top Five.
American University will stick
to its top five-Ed Moffatt, John
Selby, Hal Sponsler. Dannv Green

Yellow Jackets tonight. The Eagles
have featured balance rather than
individual high scoring in their
successes to date and in holding
the opposition to 49 points per

in the country among the small
