Veterans
and Druftees
By Maj. Thomas M. Mol

oy MOI. lnomoS ~. Nioi
From Mrs. A.M.V. of Arling-
ton. Va: IF an alien is drafted
into the United States Army. will
he be eligible after discharge for
benefits under the CT Bill?"
Yes, if he meets the eligibility
requirements set for all veterans.
From HL.C. Of Indianapolis:
II was discharged last month
from the Army. I served "a
months, Is overseas. Upon my
release I was paid 500 muster
ing-out pay. Will I be sent any
more mustering-out pay, or do
I have to apply for it?"
You should get 500 automat-
ically at the start of each of the
next two months. Any one who
has been discharged since August
1852 automatically is paid the
mustering-out payments after
he's discharged.
From R.A.B. of Oakland, Calf:
'Can you tell me whether I can
still pick up my CT insurance?
I took out the insurance in
August 1943 and dropped it in
November 1945."
You had eight years after you
took out your insurance-Au-
gust 1943-to reinstate it. That
eight years has expired, so you're
out of luck. The general rule on
reinstatement of NSLI insurance
is that it must be made within
eight years of the effective date
for term policies issued before
Jan. 1, 1916, and five years for
policies issued on or after that
date.
From B. Nc. of Ft. Eustis, Va:
II will soon be drafted. I've at
tended college for two years. How
many years of schooling will I
be eligible to receive under the
CT Bill after I'm separated?"
How much previous schooling
you've had has nothing to do
with your eligibility for CT Bill
education. You're eligible for
12 days education for each day
OF active duty. That means that
if you serve the full 24-month
draft time, you'll be eligible for
So months of schooling. the
limit.
From reader in Alabama: "I
wish to change the beneficiary of
my National Service Life Insur-
ance policy. What is the pro-
cedure?"
Write to the Veterans Admin
istration district Office to which
you have been paying your in
Surance premiums and ask for
a change of beneficiary form.
You may change your benefici-
airy without the knowledge or
consent of the present benefici-
ary.
From Mrs. RMS. of Louisville.
KY: my daughter is married
to Serviceman now stationed
overseas. Last month she had
an emergency operation. We took
her to a civilian hospital because
it was an emergency. The doctor
said it would be fatal to move
her to the Army hospital near
here. The doctor bill and hospital
expense totalled over $500. Is
there any chance that the Army
will pay us this expenSe?"
It's tough. but in no case will
the Army reimburse the depend
entS of serviceman for civilian
medical or hospital care.

The Indian tomahawk has been

them. Should L.R. again come
through, they would clinch the
second place slot by virtue of the

HERE'S ONE FROM BILLY
EVANS "KNOTTY PROBLEMS

Try this one from Billy Evans
"Knotty Problems on your
friends: In an American League
game few years ago there was a
runner ON first, two out and the
count and 2 on the batter. He
swung at a high pitch and missed
for strike three. The pitch eluded
the catcher entirely, coming into
contact with the umpire's mask on
a direct hit and lodged in it. What
about the batter and runner on this
play? answer elsewhere on this
pageD.
ANSWER When the ball so lod-
ges in the umpire's mask after a
missed third strike, the rule is that
the ball is dead. However, the bat
ter is granted first base and the
runner advances base.
