Marine Corps
Announces New
Aviation Officer
Candidate Course

WASHINGTON, ID. c. In a
re- emphasis of its traditional air
ground relationship, the Marine
Corps this week announced new
training program for prospective
| Marine ayiators.
The first new program for Mar
inc officers since World War II, it
has been termed the Aviation Off
Ger Candidate Course. 1t will re-
suit in earlier commissions as sec
ond fieutenants for men who de-
sire to become Marine pilots.
Previously all Marine Corps avi-
ators were drawn from the Naval
Aviation Cadet Program (NavCadl
or from the ranks of Marine Off
GERS on active duty. This new pro-
gram is intended to supplement the
present ones.
The AOCC will be offered to col
lege graduates who will attend a
10-week basic indoctrination course
at Marine Corps Schools, Quanti-
co, Va This course will give them
basic Marine Corps training, with
an emphasis on the infantry as
poets.
Successful graduates of this ORR
entation course will receive Marine
Corps reserve commissions and be
ordered to active duty as student
aviatcrs. Upon completion of
Flight Training, which lasts from
Is to Is months, they will be OBJ
ligated to serve a minimum of two
years with the air arm of the
Marine Corps.
Although this new program will
result in an increase in directly
commissioned Marine aviators, it
does not indicate lowered stand
ards or a departure from the ira
ditional Marine Corps air-ground
partnership. The new program will
be different approach to the same
standards.
The orientation course prior to
fight training is intended to ia
miliarize prospective f1iers in Ma
rine infantry theories, and is ex-
pected to reinforce the air-5round
relationship.
Applications for the Marine Avi-
aticn officer Candidate Course will
be accepted commencing this week
Twenty-one officer procurement Of

Farm Bureau
Mutual Introduces
A New Policy

The Farm Bureau Mutual Auto
introduced new package policy
designed to meet all the liability
insurance needs of the average
family, according to Philip r.
Jacobs, local representative.
The new package consists of the
standard automobile contract COM
bined with an expanded personal
liability policy, he said. Called the
comprehensive family liability and
automobile combination policy, the
package costs less than the total
price of its major beverages sold
separately.
The package protects the policy
holder and his family against LA
bility claims arising from automo-
bile accidents, mishaps to visitors
in his home, damage caused by his
children or pets, injuries to others
during a sports or hobby activity,
and almost, all other accidents for
which he may be held responsible.
The package is unique, Mr.. lac
obs said, in that the company has
added without additional charge
five new coyerage not contained in
previous basic personal liability
policies. The new liability provi-
sions cover fire damage to the
house which the policyholder rents,
mishaps to people visiting the site
of the home he's building, injuries
to persons. at his place of employ
ment. and accidents to visitors in a
school, studio, or office contained
within his home.
The fifth coverage provides medi-
cal payments to go with each of the
other coverages.
In. another change in the auto
policy, the company extended its
regular auto medical payments
coverage to children of the policy
holder, Mr.. Jacobs announced. De-
pending upon the premium select
ed, the broadened policy pays from
$500 to $4,000 for medical needs of
any of the family involved in an
automobile accident. 1t provides for
payment, he said, regardless of
fault or whether the injured per-
son was passenger, driver, or pedes-
trian.

Veterinary
EnterOtOXen1Ia
In Calves
Veterinary
By ]. w. Stafford, D.V.M.


IN RECENT YEARS a disease called
hemorrhagic enterotoxemia in beef
calves has been diagnosed more and
more frequently. The disease has been
observed and confirmed in most areas
over the state. This newly recognized
disease resembles enterotoxemia (pulpy
kidney or over-eating disease) in lambs.
1t is caused by bacteria called Clos
iridium perfringens type C.
Field observations generally indicate
that calves dying from hemorrhagic
enterotoxemia are from three days to
a month old. Stockmen report that the
disease most frequently attacks healthy,
vigorous calves and small weak calves
are rarely lost Cattlemen generally
agree that calves dying from hemor-
rhagic enterotoxemia are from dams
producing an abundance of milk.
The symptoms shown by the affected
calf varies considerably according to
the. amount of toxin produced by the
bacteria. 1t seems that if there is plenty
of food in the small intestine of the calf,
if there happens to be the right bacteria
present and if all other factors are
right, then the bacteria starts to pro-
duce toxin. The amount of the toxin
produced seems to determine the symp-
toms that the affected calf will have.
In good many instances the calf will
be found dead and no symptoms were
observed.
Calves Quit Nursing
Early in the disease the calves are
listless and quit nursing. Later, they
show evidence of pain in the abdomen
by Straining, uneasiness and kicking at
the abdomen. A diarrhea, quite often
stained with blood, may or may not be
observed. The calves soon go down and
are unable to get up. The head often
PULLS back to an acute angle forming
sharp curve in the neck. The eyes
oil back and the calf usually goes into
before it dies. The calf
nay show these symptoms for 2 to "a
lours before DEATH The temperature
f the calf is most always normal until
ust before death when it becomes sub
Ormal.
The severity of hemorrhagic changes
nat take place in the small intestine
re quite variable. Some may show ex-
ensive severe changes. In others, the
hanges are very slight.
Diagnosis and Prevention
To make positive diagnosis of an
ltbreak of this disease, your veteri-
arian depends upon autopsy along with
ather extensive laboratory findings.
he laboratory usually make filtrate
the intestinal contents and demon
rates the presence of the toxin that

ow it on artificial media and then
its toxin on mice. All in
|, it is quite complicated procedure.
Very recently an antitoxin has been
veloped by group of veterinarians

g and treating calves. They, also.
We produced a toxiod that can be

for the results you want. The
texture doesn't matter. If your
new Golf calls for q medium curl,
you select your permanent for
that kind Of wave. If it requires
a loose casual type of curl, get 3
kit for q loose casual wave. And,
there's one too for those who like
to wear their hair in q very curly
style. It takes only is minutes
for your hair to curl with this
new Lit wave, and there's no
ammonia in the solution 50 you
can stay on speaking terms with
your family while you use It.
Then, when you finish, your curl
and your hairdo will go together
like robins and Spring. It's the
new way, this permanent for
your style rather than your hair
texture -. much less frustrating
and just in time for Easter.

"What'l / do with my hair" is
a pretty constant question with
women. But in Spring you hear it
more often. Everyone waits to
see if the new hairstyles are long
or short, straight or curly, before
deciding on a new "do" because
every woman wants to look fash
ionably new at Easter time.
Well, this Spring hairdos are
longer than they were last year,
and they're more definitely set.
The tousled look is old. The neat
look is new. You'll need a per-
manent if your hair doesn't curl
naturally, because all hairdos
show curl, particularly on the
ends. And q new home perma.
nent goes right along with this
trend in Spring hairstyling. You
select this permanent for the way
you want your hair to look

THE NEW | G SCHOOL


YESTERDAY, WAS ared letter day in the educational
progress of this island. For it was on that day that St. CroiK
dedicated its new high school the Christiansted High
School-and opened the doors to all
CH~RISTIANSTED High School is as modern and
efficient as it can possibly be. First, it is spacious, having
adequate cIasSrooms for seventh through the 18th grades,
with each classroom furnished with real blackboards, proper
seating and lighting, and all essential facilities. Corridors are
large so as to reduce congestion and make class transfers
where such is necessary a matter Of little time and effort
BUT FOR ALL that the new high school offers, the
most impressive is the auditorium. For the first time IN the
history Of this Island there is a real auditorium designed and
built from the ground up, for that purpose, and that purpose
only. Seating some 800 this auditorium will provide ample
space for school gatherings, assemblies, plays, programs and
the like. It is hoped that around this auditorium will revoiye
many 4 community activity, and that as time passes the Chris
tiansted High School will indeed become the real center Of
community life.
WE NOW HAVE a high school plant Of which all may
Justly be proud, and we are. We are grateful for the foresight,
the plans, the work done, and the persistence to see it
through to its successful conclusion. Even though many
whose efforts were identified with the early work are no long
er in positions Of responsibility, nevertheless at least a word
Of credit is due, and among these is former Governor Morris
F.. de Castro.
SENSEOF pride, a sense of dedication, coupled with
calm and satisfaction descends upon us all as we view the
new high school and know that for many generations to
come the structure will serve us well, and make perhaps the
most significant contribution to the life OF the community
Teachers will have a better atmosphere in which to work,
and naturally, having better and more efficient facilities
with which to work will find their endeavors much more re-
Wardng.
