Vets Urged To Notify
Veterans Administration

Veterans or dependents of veterans
who intend to receive their pension
payments under provisions of the new
pension law should notify the Veterans
Administration of their choice as soon
as possible, Wayne A. Sanders, Man
ager of VAS Arizona Regional Office,
said today.
Sanders explained that indications
are that the usual last minute rush
will develop in May and June as more
and more veterans and dependents
visit VA offices seeking further infor-
nation about the new pension plan.
Those who have notified VA of
their choice of the new pension law
before July 1, 1860, the effective date
of the law, will have full advantage
of any higher payments by coming
under the new law from the start
Those choosing the new pension
law after July 1, 1860, will have their
new payments started on the date they
notified VA of their choice rather
than have payments retroactive to
July 1, 1860, Sanders said.

Future Jobs Beckon Negroes

Many Truinees

PHOENIX-"St Startling changes will
take place in the Arizona labor force
during the next ten years." James A.
Rork, Observation-Disclosures of the
Arizona State Employment Service,
stated in releasing new major Man
power Study, "Arizona's Manpower
Challenge of the COS" which differs
from most such studies in that it
gives the outlook for many specific
occupations.
Several examples of occupational
growth are cited from the study. For
example, employment of Executives
will grow from 10000 year ago to
over 1900 before the next census!
Bookkeeper jobs will increase from
nearly 5000 to over 1900; Elec-
tronic Technician jobs will grow from
LOO to over $500; over 5000 new
Carpenters will be needed; 1000 new
Auto Mechanics; 1000 Engineers;
5000 Teachers; nearly 5000 Steno-
graphers; and over 1000 Machinists
"The overall changes in the labor
force will require major overhaul in
the employment policies of many busi-
nesses. Employers who persist in poll
cies against hiring workers because of
their age, or sex or race, religion or
nationality, or because they may be
handicapped i'm some way, may have
real trouble finding enough workers
i'm the decade ahead.

EIectronics Course
Inuuquruted AT Pc

In keeping with the growing de-
mand for the newly specialized field
of electronics in this locality, Phoenix
College will offer a two-year training
course in Electronic TechnicianS,
ElectronicS Maintenance and Repair,
and Radio and Television Station
Operation.
Purpose of the curriculum is to pre-
pare men and women for team men,
bership with engineers to test and
evaluate electronic devices. 1t is de-
signed to provide training in math-
ematics and physics, along with theo-
retical and practical training. The
course covers electrical and electronic
theory, construction and maintenance
of electrical equipment, electronically-
controlled devices and allied compon-
ent parts. Special interests within the
area are to be developed and encour-
aged, such as:
Electronics Technician: essentially
junior electrical engineer, good
course for one who must limit his
time of study.
Electronics Maintenance and Re-
pair; includes work in radio and TV
repair shops, airport electronicS, COM
puter work, and manufacturing firms.
Radio and TV Station Operation;
supplemented with the course in radio
and TV maintenance should enable to
pass FEC examination for first-class
commercial license.
Phoenix firms cooperating with the
Arizona Employment Services and PC
in sponsoring the new course include
General Electric, Motorola, AiRe-
search, the Chamber of Commerce,
and Sperry. Those desiring further

Broadway Phillips sc
Widely Recognized

Business is good very good - at
Powell Brothers and Reeder Phillips
&c service station at 2242 East Broad
way.
Certainly these three local business
men expected success when they op-
ened the station last March, but the
current sustained volume of business
surprises even them.
There are only 4 Negro go" opera
tors in the system and the local station
is not only the lone Negro-operated
''66" in Arizona but the only Negro
leadership in the company.
This station ranks No. in volume
of business among all Arizona '66"
stations. So happy are the executives
= that they granted these Phoenix hust-
lerS permission to develop a chain of
stations if they desire.
Recently, the fellows had a visit
from officials who wished to study
their success formula. Their full-page
ad in the April % issue of the ARI-
IONA SUN has come up for special
commentator. 1t was the creation of

GSM Benefits

Payments to beneficiarieS and pol
icyownerS of Golden State Mutual
Life Insurance Co. during 1859 ex-
ceeded 81 million, Edgar ]. Johnson,
executive vice president of GSM an
nounced Monday.
A breakdown of the $2,004,172
payments by the company last year
revealed death benefits amounting to
$339,745 which represented marked
improvement in mortality losses for
the year. At the same time, benefits
to living policyowners increased ma
terially with sickness and accident
benefits amounting to $952,368. Life
policyowners received $159,740 in
policy dividends. This marked the Goth
consecutive year that the company
paid dividends to policyownerS.
Matured endoWments reach d

couraging home ownership. Medical
centers and mortuaries are also in
cluded in GSM's mortgage loan serv-
ices.

Gateway to Scholarship

IF UNIVERSITY football teams vie for top
IL high school athletes. why shouldn't col
leges be equally enterprising in recruiting
top scholars?
On this hypothesis, DR.. Leon W. Cohen
chairman of the Mathematics Department at
the University of Maryland went into action
He substituted math for football in surveying
high schools for the cream of the crop,
year ago this spring. he wrote to all the
high schools in Maryland and the District,
asking mathematics overseers to let him know
of their talented and interested students
We wanted to offer them something"
he explains. We wanted to find the best stu
dents to come to the university and to offer
them deeper, speedier course in math."
"Math" says Prof John M Horvath, chair
man of the committee on undergraduate
studies, lis field for precocty, just like
music, or science, or chess
Of about 40 students selected for day
long visit to the campus and given brieflng
on Marylands honors program in mathematics,
q registered. The program now is entering the
sophomore year, and the Mathematics De-
partment has talked with IS prospective new
freshmen for this fall.
The philosophy behind the honors pro-
gram involves these premises, among others:
Mathematical talent develops early.
There is theory that the average person
who doesn't get into some serious contact with
math by his 18th year is lost forever" DR..
Cohen believes, in any case, that you have
to identify the bright people and provide them
with course of study which will enable them,
before they are graybeards and have lost the
zest, to get into it. You have to give students
the right kind of stimulation and the right kind
of depth which will encourage them to 60 into
a career of math.'
Developments in pre-college mathe
matics courses look toward absorption by high
school courses of present college freshman
and sophomore content in the next 10 years.
To the extent to which the revision in the
high schools is essential, the college curricu-

lum will be a real deterrent if students come
up with more math than they would get in a
regular freshman course" DR. Cohen points
out so we in the colleges have to be ready
to pick them up"
The penetration of mathematical meth
DDS into the biological and social sciences re-
qures broader spread of higher mathemat.
ical competence in the undergraduate popu-
lation.
Math, points out DR.. Cohen, is emerging
into a new social role. Cancer research, for
example, has raised enormous math problems
with hospitals all over the world feeding in
experimental data to be organized and ana
lyzed The physical scientist now enters his
work at much deeper level The organiza-
ton of chronological work has become much
more sophisticated, with more and more de-
mands on math. Math also has invaded the
management field
The speed of advance in mathematical
research requires an earlier completion of
undergraduate study than is now conventional.
Maryland's honors program proposes to
move up content to include first-year graduate
courses. Here, in brief is the plan:
The Introductory mathematics course for
honors students covers three semesters. The
material covered not only includes that ordi-
narily in the freshman and sophomore courses,
but stresses modern concepts such as sets,
mappings, axiomatics, linear and abstract
algebra. Solving of difficult problems and in
dependent reading are encouraged in a
seminar.
During the next three semesters, from the
middle of his sophomore to the end Of his
junior year. the honors student will complete
a selection of l00level courses, participate in
a seminar for credit and read independently
in preparation for graduate courses. In the
senior year, he will take 2OO-level courses,
participate in a seminar for credit and take
a comprehensive examination.
DR.. Cohen anticipates that in five years,
the honors program will become the standard
program.
