marked then by his teachers for
a fine high school career. He en-
tered Phoenix Union High as
sophomore and for three years
made only. three grades below
a straight II" record. In science
courses he made only one grade
below "1". That was a "2" in
first semester of senior physics.
Aside from this his science re-
cord was so remarkable that in
his junior year he was chosen
by the department head to re-
present Union High on the
Standard Oil Town to their re-
fineries in La Habra, California,
In his junior year Joe was also
chosen one of Union Highs re-
presentatives to Boys State and
was sponsored by the Maricopa
County Farm Bureau. In his
senior year Joe took first place
for senior boys in all the high
schools in the city in the Rotary
Public Speaking Contest. He
went on to take second place
for all contestants, boys and
girls, in all grades in the finals.
Joe has a particular flair for
oratory and oratorical writing.
He was an honor roll student
in all six SemeSters in Union
High and his scholarship was
rewarded by his being chosen
for membership in the Nationa-
al Honor Society, the Key Club
sponsored by the KiwainS Club,
and the ParnaSsuS Club which
is Union Highs scholarship club.
Joe completed his career at Un-

of 749 or in the top 3 per cent

It is not surprising that the

having Joe come to Whittier and
offered him a scholarship cover

a year and tentative promise Of
a job that will pay for his board.

Good Plants Are
Result OF More
Healthy Growth

WooSter-Good plant health is
an important factor to the farmer
in producing high yields at the
least possible cost, says leading
Ohio agronomist.
H. ]. Mederski of the Ohio Agri-
cultural Experiment Station says
one sure way to maintain this con-
dition is to set up the right kind
of plant environment. Plant food,
moisture and soil temperature are
the keys. ,.~
Since it is impossible to tell by
looking at a soil whether or not it
is deficient in these nutrients,
some kind of soil testing program
was needed. Years ago agro-
nomiStS at the Ohio station devel-
oped test that would determine
the plant food supplying capacity
of the soil. This test was widely
adopted throughout the United
States and improvements are still
being made to take out any guess
work in crop fertilization.
Placement of fertilizer at seed
ing time is important for good
crop growth, Mederski observes

Vets Questions
And The Answers

Q-l am Korea veteran.

A-The law prohibits it. The
only foreign training allowed is
college-level work, approved by

tons of higher learning.
Q- was injured on the job,

disabled. I hold a World War II
CT insurance policy. May I stop
paying premiums and retain my
coverage?
A-No. You should continue
paying your premiums. After you
have been totally disabled for
six months, apply to VA for a
waiver of premiums. Continue to
pay until VA informs you your
waiver has been granted. VA will
refund all premiums paid during
the period of your total disability.
but for not more than one year

Q-I am a disabled Korea vet
eran and / have received vocation
al rehabilitation training under
Public Law 1874. Would I now be
eligible for further training under
the Korean CT Bill?
A-You many be. Subtract the
amount of vocational rehabilita-
ton training received from 48
months. If there is a balance left
over, that is the amount of train
ing to which you might be in
titled under the Korean CT Bill.
Q-Am / supposed to notify my
CT insurance beneficiaries If l
want to make a change in by
beneficiary list?
A-No. You need merely notify
VA of your new list of benefi-
ciaries. You need not notify the
beneficiaries themselves.
