 C,OMMENT

The baseball world was stunned recently when, on the day before the Major League opened, the St. Louis Cardi- nals of the National League announced they had traded away a great star, Enos Slaughter, to the New York Yankees of the American League Slaughter had been with the Cardinals for thirteen active seasons. having joined them in 1888.
 Famed for his hustle and considered one of the great players of the National League Enos (Country) Slaughter holds a 13-year .3C5 batting average with the Cards.
 Moreover, only one player still active in the League has more hits than Slaughter, Stan Musial. Only one has more runs batted in. Ted Williams.
 St. ,Louls baseball fans could hardly believe their ears when the announcement came that Slaughter had been traded to the Yankees, in re- turn for four comparatively players. Owner August Busch's statement that Enos was traded to make way for a | youth movement failed to ap- pease fans, who thought Slaughter deserved to stay | with the Cardinals as long as he performed efficiently. Most ] baseball fans, in all cities, l agreed with that sentiment.
 It is a poor commentary on any baseball organization when a hustling ball player he likes of Slaughter, with 2 L3-year s3O5 batting average. s traded perhaps partially be- .ause of a high. but justified. Jolted by the news, Slaughter broke down and ;obbel, but he might find con- iolation in the fact that he go- ng to a famous baseball or

The August 20 Korean
CT Bill cutoff date applies
only to post-Korea veterans
separated from active serv-
ice before August 20, 1862.
Veterans who got out of ac-
tive service after that date
have two years from sep
aration in which to begin
their training.
Newly-separated veterans
in the latter group need not
worry about having their
one change-of-course rights
curtailed until after their
individual cutoff da t e s
come around, VA said.

VA NEWS

Veterans who are plan
ming to start Korean CT Bill
training before the forth
coming August 20 cutoff
date were urged by the Vet
Grams Administration to give
e X tr a special thought to
their choice of a training
program.
The reason, VA said, is
that after the cutoff date,
the law tightens up appreci-
ably on a veterans right to
change his course. He no
longer will be allowed to
m a k e his one and only
course change with the same
ease that it could be made
before the deadline.
At any time before the
cutoff date, the Korean CT
Bill permits a. veteran one
change Of course. So long as
The Tribune. [volume] (Roanoke, Va.) 1951-19??, 1954-06-26

his conduct and progress
were satisfactory, he has a
relatively free hand in max
ing the change. 1t could be
from law to engineering /;
from air conditioning to air
plane mechanics; the choice
was his.
But once the cutoff date
passes, VA said, the one
and-only free change-of-
course provision no longer
holds good. After that time,
a veteran may change his
course only under one of the
following circumstances:
The course he wants to
change to is a normal pro-
gression from the course he
has already taken. For ex-
ample, if he obtained his
ALB degree, he would be per-
mitted to change to an MA
degree.
He hasn't been making
satisfactory progress in the
course he was taking, due
to>'no fault of his own. If
this is the case, he will be
required to undergo VA vo-
cational counseling, to help

Social Security
NeaOs -.

: How much covered en-
ployment or self-employ-
ment income will YOU need
in order to be eligible for
social security benefits when
you reach 65?
According to v. B. Hollo-
mon, manager of the Roa-
noke social security office,
there is better than an even
chance that your answer
if you have one-will be
wrong. Why? Mr.. Hollomon
explains it this way: Since
thousands of older workers
have already qualified for
benefits with as little as, a
year and one-half of Gov
cred earnings, many people
have assumed that any per-
son can do the same. Actu-
ally that is true only where
the individual is already 65
or will attain that age be-
fore July /, 1854.
Anyone reaching IS after
June 30 of this year will
need one more quarter of
covered employment or self
employment for each addi-
tional 6 month period up to
the time he reaches 65. Thus
a person who will be 65
three years from now will
need 3 more quarters in adj
dition to the 6 already re-
quired, or a total of IL. The
maximum coverage require
ment is 40 quarters and the
minimum is 6.
The Roanoke social secur-
lty manager stated that a
pamphlet explaining fully
the eligibility requirements
and other social security
questions is available upon
request at the social secur-
ity office. Request for Pam
phlet No. 35 should be adj
dressed to the Social Secur-
i ty Administration, Roa-
noke, Va. Persons approach
ing 65 who have any doubt
about their ability to meet
t n e employment require
ments are urged to obtain
a copy.
