Gifted Pupils
Pose Problem
For Colleges
By G. X. HODENFIELD
Associated Press stan Writer

American universities. tradi-
tionally slow to change their
ways, are being caught In q
space-age controversy: What to
do about the gifted student?
Ever since Russia sent Sput-
mix I into orbit 20 months ago.
the Nations brightest kids
have been in the spotlight.
They're the leaders Of tomor-
row, goes the refrain, and We
must cultivate them as we do
rare plants.
Mostly the arguments about
gifted students have centered
around their high school edu-
cation. Now the fuss and Juror
have reached the collegiate
level. Around the country, a
number Of plans are being
tried out.
The most popular seems to
be advanced placement-giving
college freshmen credit for
college-level courses they took
in high school. Honors pro-
grams, wherein the brightest
students progress at a much
faster rate than their fellows,
are also popular. So is the idea
Of independent study for those
able to handle it.
Less Skipping
A few years ago. "early ad-
mission" was being touted as
the coming thing in higher edu-
cation. It is still being used,
but more and more schools are
deciding that it just doesn't
work out to let even the
brightest students skip their
last year or two Of high school.

process will utilize crop that we
used to neglect-that of growing
timber. When this plant is oper-
ating at capacity, it will produce
forty million square feet of flake
board annually, and the chief
source of the raw material needed
will be the forests of North Caro-
lima.
Also, we must not forget that
new industry will give employment
to members of farm families, thus
Strengthening their economic indie
pendence. So the programs of both
Scott and Hodges have supple
mented each other and present a
well-balanced program for all the
people of North Carolina.
Yes, it was natural for Scott
to speak in the language of the
farmer and for Hodges to speak
in the language of industry, but
it is unfair to their records to
suggest that they have not labored
for the good of the State as a
whole.
l have just returned from Phil
adelphia where our Governors led
a large group of North CAROLYN
ians representing all sections of
our State in the interest of indus
trial promotion. There we saw an
example of the kind of unity, the
kind of team-play, the kind of
broad outlook that is so necessary
to our progress. For instance,
there We're many representatives
of local Chambers of Commerce
and local Industrial Promotion
Committees that, although remain
ing local to their local viewpoint,
for the time being, devoted them
selves to telling the North Caro-
lima Story. Neighborly rivalry on
the local level was forgotten as
the cause of North Carolina as a
whole was presented.
Much of the time of our group
in Philadelphia was devoted to the
promotion of industries that pro-
cess our food products. Incident
ally, on our program was lunch
con given there on Thursday by
the North Carolina Poultry Pro-
cessors Association.
North Cardinals future is bright
with great promise if our leader
ship and our people, within the
limits of the free democratic press,
can see North Carolina whole

HUNTERS PARADISE
IN NORTH CAROLINA
(By RAY TRULLINGER !.
in N. Y. World Telegram) l

1
Perhaps you haven't heard about
Arson Smiths River Forest Manor
at Belhaven, N. C. It's the jumping
off place for duck, goose, quail,
deer and bear hunting, and we
can recommend it to those who
are interested in linked bag"
hunting. There also is fishing, both
salt water and fresh.
This general area, noted for
goose and duck shooting, is only a
short drive from the Mattamus-
keet Waterfowl Preserve, where
blinds and guides are available for
quite reasonable fee. In addition,
Smith leases fields for goose
shooting.
The area around Belhaven is
good quail country. 1t isn't easy
hunting terrain, but normally
birds are plentiful. Gents who can
bust through bliar patches and
other obstacles to comfortable foot
travel will not lack for shots.
Guides and dogs are as good as
you'll find anywhere.
Deer and bear are, of course,
hunted with hounds, and either
shotguns with buckshot loads, or
rifles, are used. Deer are generally
on the small side, but the bear
come large. Reason for that is be-
cause of good year-round food ami
the fact bruin doesn't hibernate to
any great extent in North Caro-
lina's coastal region.
Good duck and goose shooting
in that sector depends on weather,
same as everywhere else. We once
had wonderful shoot on Malta
muskeet-four geese and 10 ducks
when a roaring storm blew up
and kept waterfowl on the wing
for hours. Our limit was filled in
little over an hour, and, accord
ing to the preserve manager, we
had the worst blind in the public
shooting area.
For the hunter who prefers to
prowl around on his own with
boat, decoys and gun, there are
creeks and rivers in the area
where a duck limit is always a
possibility. Ducks also come into
the fields to feed and if the hunt
er is in the right spot, he gets
lively shooting.
Deer and bear hunting with
hounds affords plenty of action
and excitement. These chases us
ually are run in savannah-like
country in the vicinity of ponds
and lakes with the pursued deer
making for water when the hounds
get close. The object, of course, is
to be stationed on runway and
intercept the quarry. Somebody
usually gets a shot. Getting a
crack at bear isn't SO easy un-
less bruin trees or is brought to
bay by the dogs.
River Forest Manor is an old,
plantation type home, comfortable

PULP AND PAPER
SCHOLARSHIPS AVAILABLE

/
The N. C. State College Pulp and
Paper Foundation and its area rep
resentative, North Carolina Pulp
Company, are happy to announce
that number of scholarships are
available to high school seniors in
terested in following a career in
pulp and paper technology. Major
scholarships to be awarded have a
value of $500 per year to residents
of North Carolina or $3.50 to resi-
dents of other states. Minor schol-
arships have a value of $500 year
irrespective of residence. Winners
tof these scholarships are virtually
assured of summer jobs within the
pulp and paper industry which
would pay them more than enough
to carry the college expenses for
a full year over and above that
covered by the scholarship. A stu
dent under one of the scholarships
working at North Carolina Pulp
Company for three months during
the summer could expect to earn
$900-$100O.
The financing of the scholar
ships is made possible by member
ship fee and donations by members
of the Pulp and Paper Foundation,
Inc. This organization is made up
of large pulp and paper mills and
paper mill supply organizations
who are vitality interested in the
development of the pulp and paper
industry in the South. The North
Carolina Pulp Company is men,
Der of this Foundation.
Any high school graduate or col
lege student in the United States
may apply for one of these schol-
arships. His qualifications are de-
termined by considering together
high school academic records, ex-
ira curricular achievements, finan-
cial needs, and results of college
entrance examinations. Applicants
for these scholarships must be pre-
pared to take the College En-
trance Examination Board Scho-
lastic Aptitude Test to qualify
them for admission to N. C. State
College.
This college entrance examina-
ton will be given at various locali-
ties during the spring. Full details
may be obtained by prospective
freshmen from their high school
vocational counselors. For scholar
ships and admission applications,
interested high school seniors
should write to Dean r. j. Preston,
School of Forestry, N. C. State
College, Raleigh, N. C. The final
date for scholarship application is
May Is, 1859.
High School seniors in the Ply
mouth area may obtain additional
information by contracting C.

Company.

DISABLED WAGE GARNER
HAS REQUIREMENTS LIFTED

Congress has removed the re-
quirement that a severely disabled
wage Garner had to have some
recent work prior to becoming
disabled in order to be eligible for
disability insurance benefits or the
freezing of his social security
wage record. The new amendments
to the social security law will en-
able many more disabled wage
earners to qualify than was pre-
viously possible.
The law as stated before pro-
vided that a severely disabled
person must have worked in en-
ployment covered by social secur-
ity at least five years out of the
ten years prior to becoming dis
abled; and at least one and one
half years of this time must have
been in the 3-year period before
becoming disabled. The new law
has dropped the latter requirement
of one and one-half years work
within the last 8 years.
Now wage Garner who other
wise meets the disability require
ments under the law may have
| his social security record frozen,
or if he is age so or over may
receive monthly disability benefits
as long as he is fully insured and
has worked five years out of the
ten before becoming disabled.
Some persons who will be af-
fected by this change had pre-
viously filed claims under the old
provisions Of the law and were
denied because they didn't have
the recent work required. Those
individuals should again file a
claim with their social security
office. Only those persons whose
claim was denied because they die
not work one and one-half years
out of the last three should refile
their claim. A previous denial fol
any other reason would not be
altered by the recent change in
! the law.

WAY TO PROGRESS
OFFERED BY Gill.
IN PLEA FOR UNITY.
State Treasurer Says compla-.
cency and Disunity Would
Encourage Disaster

The next ten years may be cr1tl-
eals in North Carolina, and the
complacency and disunity of the
states people as to fiscal policies
or the well-rounded development
of industry and agriculture could
tumble the ball, in the opinion of
State Treasurer Edwin Gill. In his
recent address to the Association
of Assessing Officers at Chapel
Hill. Mr.. Gill said while he believes
the future of North Carolina can
yield much, it is going to require
a balanced budget and united
people. His address was as fol-
lows:
/ am. very "bullish" about the
future of North Carolina. We have
made remarkable progress even
during the setback of the recess
sion, and l believe that we are on
the threshold of greater things
provided our people are united
and alert to the opportunities that
VIII come our way.
North Carolina is in excellent
financial condition with very rea-
sonable public debt. Because of
oar healthy fiscal condition and
the fundamental strength of our
economy, we have come through
the recession in much better con-
dition than many other states.
North Carolina is fortunate in
the mildness and variety of her
climate, her plentiful human and
natural resources, her excellent
means of transportation, and her
close proximity to the great mar
kets of the East. But we must, as
a people, seize the initiative and
not wait for progress to come
automatically. We are in competi-
ton with other states, and, if we
are to get our fair share of the
Nations growth, we must show
ourselves receptive to industrial
development on both the State and
local level.
When / say l am "bullish" about
the future of North Carolina, /
am speaking both of the immed-
late future, which involves the
next two years, and the outlook
for North Carolina as we take a
long look at the decades that lie
ahead.
As to the outlook for the i'm
mediate future, l am optimistic
enough to believe that our next
General Assembly will be greatly
aided by the economic recovery
that is now in progress in its eff
forts to balance the budget and
continue progressive public serv-
ice to our people. I wish to speak,
however, in more detail as to our
iong-term prospects as State
and as people.
In my opinion, the next ten
years are critical. 1t would be
tragic if North Carolina should
become complacent or so divided
as to policies, or so indifferent to
the need for well-rounded, we'll

both industry and agriculture, as

sister states to assume the leader

Of course, we should concentrate
on an agricultural program, hold

and pleasant. The meals are excel
lent and Smith is an admirable
host. Hunters take off from there
in the early dawn and drive to
wherever the hunting starts. There
also is a private preserve where
pheasants and chuckers are stock
ed. The minimum charge is $25
per gun for that.
