family or friends do not in any
way enhance his chances nor in
fluence his selection, since he
must compete and with the ap-
pointment on his own merit.
A Congressman is permitted
five Midshipmen in Annapolis
and four Cadets a. West Point at
one time. AS vacancies occur APP
pointments are made. This may
mean an appointment each year,
or two years one year and none
the next. Glasses begin at the
academies in July.
The examination is comprised
of two phases. The first phase is
a written examination which I
request Civil Service conduct for
me a year in advance of the class
starting date for which there is
a vacancy. The purpose of this
test is to determine the mental
ability of the applicants.
When the results Of the written
examination are received, the
young men scoring adequate
grades are requested to appear
before a board of prominent
South Floridians for personal
interview. Your Congressman Sc
lected this board for the purpose
of Judging the applicants on their
attitude, personality and general
all-around qualifications.
The nominations for appoint
ment are then made with the
young men scoring the highest
combined score for the written
test and interview being auto
matically awarded my appoint
ments. This policy takes academy
appointments out of politics and
gives every young man in my dis
trict a chance to earn his way
into Annapolis or West Point.
Sincerely yours,
BILL LANTAFF

\ LETTEN FROM
LANTAFF
Dear Neighbor:

Dear Neighbor:
zach year, about this time,
thoughts Of obtaining an appoint
tlent to West Point or Annapolis
enter the minds of many young
men, while others dismiss the
thought because they or taeir
s. MINES 40 NOT know tnelr C.ol-
5. essman and feel they must have
political influence to be consld-
cred for appointment.
While Congressman may eStao-
lish their own method for making
academy appointments, with some
appointing the sons of their
l!IendS or business associates or
making their selection for politi-
cal reasons, your Congressman
las found lar too many young
men from South Florida VINO are
,ager to win an appointment, Tor
me 10 limit the opportunity to a
few by following such an appoint
ment method.
Your Conressman has adopted
policy whereby any young man
from the Fourth Congressional
District of Florida may have the
opportunity TO compete for my
appointments. don't believe in
playing politics with these young
men. To me it is far more i'm
portant what the young man
knows rather than who he knows
what he is, not who he is. To
clarity, the confusion and misun-
Outstanding which results evident
ly from the knowledge that Con-
gressmen could select their ap-
pointments on any basis they
choose, and without requiring
competition, IS the main purpose
/ of this letter. 1t is to explain your
Congressman's appointment pol
icy and to encourage young men
to compete for my appointments
My policy works this way. Any
young man, from Florida's 4th
Congressional District, between
II and %, and physically quail
fled need only write me that he
desires to compete for my APP
pointment to West Point or An
napolis. His letter is all that i;
required to gain the opportunity
to compete. Letters from hi!

And now abideth faith, hope,
and charity, these three; but the
greatest Of these is charity. -
Il Corinthians XIII, 13.)
The poorest, most poverty
stricken man or woman among US
may be, and often is, the richest in
the community in the giving Of
charity-for they have nothing to
give to another but their love, their
understanding, their sincerity,
their unpretentious help which
seeks neither recognition nor re-
ward. And these are charity, in the
real and true meaning Of the word.

Why Grow Oid7
Poor Shoes, Badly Fitted,
Cause Much Foot Trouble

You should stretch them gradu-
ally by wearing your low heels
for only a short time each day
until your muscles become used
to them.
You can also do the following
exercise to stretch the back leg
muscles in preparation for casu-
ais this summer: Lie on the floor
on your back with your legs
straight. Raise your left leg with
stiff knee. Pull your toe back
toward your head. Lower leg
to the floor. Do the same thing
with your right leg. Continue
alternating left and right. Do
not pull your toe back too hard.
This is more strenuous than it
sounds.
