plan to another during the
initial phase of the program
July /, 1860, to October 81,
1961-here are the Civil Serv-
ice Commissions explanations:
@. Can employees transfer
from one plan to another be-
tween July /, 1860, and Oc-
tober 81, 1861, or do they have
to wait until the "open period"
in october, 1861, to change to
another plan?
A. Employees who choose
either of the two Government
wide plans-indemnity (Aetna)
or service (Blue CroSs-Blue
Shield cannot transfer to an
other plan until october, 1861.
Employees enrolled in COM
prehensive plans offered by To-
cal groups in their geographic
area can transfer to another
plan before October, 1861, if
they move from their area to
a new geographic area. For
example, an employe in WASH
ington, D. c., who enrollS un-
der the Group Health Asso-
citation plan here, can transfer
to another plan If he or she
moves from the Washington
area.
Also, employees who enroll
under union or association
plans can transfer to another
plan if they are ousted by the
group for any reason and their
health enrolment plan can
celed. However, if the union
continues to carry them in the
plan and refuses to release
them. they must wait until
October, 1861, to enroll in an
other plan.
Also, employees transferred
overseas have the right to
change to another plan at any
time.
CHAN NGES IN FAMILY
STATUS-Q. Under what con-
ditions can employees change the
status Of their particular plan
such as from "self only" to
family or vice versa-during
the July /, 1860, to october 81,
1861. period?
A. This can be done in cases
of birth, death or marriage of
a child, a child's attaining the
age of 10, or the recovery of
capacity of self-support of a
child over 10.
For example, If a man and
wife both hold jobs in Govern
ment and are enrolled under
self only" status plans, and a
child is born to them, they can
switch over to a self and fam
lily" status. Another example is
an unmarried employe under
the self only" plan who gets
married. This employe can
switch over to the self and
family" plan at any time.
Or an employe under a self
and family" plan covering him.
self and his wife can switch to
a self only" plan if his wife
dies. Another example is a
widow or divorcee with chill
dren under 19 who is enrolled
under a "selt and family plan. "
When the children reach 10
and are no longer eligible for
the program, she can transfer
to a self only" plan.

ELIGIBILITY-Q. If an
employe and spouse are both
employed and both enrolled
for self only, and one resigns
or is involuntarily separated,
there is no provision for chang
ing to a family enrolment.
Is this intentional?
A. Yes. The person who re-
signs can convert to an indi-
vidual contract, or the person
who remains in the service can

about the u. N. Some Of their
Questions were answered by
their current events paper.
which is distributed to all upper
class students, but not all of
them were taken care of in this
way.
For instance: How was the
U. N. formed? How are new
nations admitted to the organi-
zation? What is the chief pur-
pose of the U. N? How is
the Secretary General chosen,
and what are his duties?
Prepare U. N. Program
The class divided itself into
rows, and each row undertook
to find an answer to certain
questions. Then they pooled
their results, and prepared a
program for U. N. Day in
which these questions would be
answered and discussed before
all of the fifth grade rooms in
the school.
Glass members also obtained
a description of the unusually
designed buildings which house
the world organization in New
York City, and found out what
things each building contains.
Besides securing this informa-
tion itself, they learned much
about the various agencies and
services of the U. N. when they
found out where they were
located, and how much space
in the buildings they occupied.

Glenn's class worked out for
