Ready For Merit Tests
Berner and Massapequa High
School students who expect to
complete their secondary school
requirements and to enter college
in 1968 can register now to participate
in the 1967- 68 National
Merit Scholarship Program,
Miss Wilma Diehl, Guidance Director,
announced mis week.
The first step for students who
wish to enter the nation- wide
competition is to take the National
Merit Scholarship Qualifying

high school on Saturday, February

In addition to competing for the
Merit Scholarships to be awarded
in 1968, students can take
the test to obtain information useful
in planning their future education
and careers. With his test
scores, each participating student
will receive a handbook to
help him evaluate his scores,
compare his performance with
that of other high school students
across the country, and give him
information on choosing a college
and financing his education. The
handbook and other interpretive
materials are furnished as a part
of reporting the test results.
The highest- scoring students
in each state will be named
Semi- finalists and will be eligible
for Merit Scholarship consideration.
In addition to the National Merit
Scholarships financed by the National
Merit Corporation itself,
more than 350 business corporations,
foundations, colleges, professional
associations, unions,
trusts, other organizations, and
individuals offer scholarships
through the Merit Program.
About 13,440 students have won
Merit Scholarships in the eleven
Merit Programs to date. 2330
Merit Scholarships were awarded
in 1966 with stipends ranging
from $ 100 to $ 1,500 per year

Recently discharged veterans
who require immediate care for
disabilities apparently incurred
in service may be entitled to
out- patient treatment and hospitalization,
according to State
Director of Veterans' Affairs,
Frank V. Votto.
Only veterans discharged or
released with an honorable or
general discharge are eligible
for such treatment while awaiting
recognition of their claimed
disabilities, Director Votto said.
In addition, application must be
made within six months of discharge
or release from service.
The veterans' official also
noted that in an emergency, a
recently discharged veteran a-waiting
adjudication of his claim
to connect his injuries to service
may obtain care at non- VA facilities
at government expense
when VA facilities are not available.
He cautioned, however, that
prior approval is necessary in
such cases.
Out- patient medical, dental,
and h o s p i t a l i z a t i o n privileges
cease immediately upon
the denial of a veteran's claim
that his disability was service-connected.
Veterans desiring further information
concerning medical
and other veteran benefits are
invited to visit the local office
of the New York State Division
of Veterans' Affairs ( or) Veterans'
Service Agency located at
