Dimmer than usual
DETROIT (UPI) - The
Central Business District As
sociation Tuesday said this
year’s “Detroit Aglow” Christ
mas show will be dimmer than
usual.
Because of the energy shor
tage, a spokesman said, lights
in downtown office buildings
will not be left on after working
hours.
The number of Christmas
lights on the outsides of
: buildings will not be cut back,
however, he said, because their
wattage “is so miniscule that
: the advantages of lighting up
our city in terms of the comfort
and enjoyment people will feel
walking along the streets
downtown far outweighs any
negative aspects.”
Financing college
Check scholarships
(EDITOR'S NOTE: The author is president of Scholar
ship Search and a consultant to the National Scholar
ship Foundation. This is the first of three articles on how
to finance a college education.)
By S. Robert Freede
NEW YORK - (NEA) -
College students and their
families are learning that
seeking a student loan is in it
self a course in economics.
Even the friendly banker
across the street prefers to
lend money to businessman
at 10 per cent rather than
grant a student loan at the re
quired 7 per cent. And now
middle-income students are
finding it more difficult to get
federal aid.
The Guaranteed Student
Loan program, the plan in
which the middle-income
group could participate, is
now giving most of its con
sideration to the needy —
even though the middle in
come families can no longer
meet rising college costs. As
a result colleges all over the
country are facing a large
drop in the number of
recruits.
But don’t let a shortage of
funds stand between you and
a college education. Finan
cial aid opportunities still ex
ist for any student who really
wants a degree. If the desire
is strong enough there is an
excellent chance of finding
sources of help in meeting the
rising cost of tuition, room
and board, fees and the like
which, in the more expensive
universities, can easily cost
upwards of SIOO per week.
Millions of dollars in finan
cial aid actually go unused
each year because students
and their families are not
aware that they may be eligi
ble for funds. Don’t let apathy
keep you from receiving
awards for which you qualify.
Compile a mailing list of
the names and addresses of
organizations, business firms,
government agencies, unions,
religious groups and others
that offer scholarships. Write
to them and find out what you
must do to apply. Then follow
up.
Good sources of financial
aid are your high school gui
dance counselor or your col
lege financial aid officer.
Seek his advice but don’t ex
pect him to do the whole job
for you. He must help many
students. He will put you on
the right track but you must
expect to do the legwork
yourself.
Basic research for your
“fund raising” campaign can
be done in a public or school
library. There you will find
publications telling you how
to find and apply for scholar
ships. (Remember, though,
that no book can be expected
to list all sources of financial
aid available or be entirely
current because sources of
scholarships and financial
aid change constantly.)
Many scholarships and
other financial aid grants are
awarded on a competitive
basis, involving your class
standing, test scores,
references and recommenda
tions from teachers, coun
selors and members of your
community. Yet there are
hundreds of awards availa
ble to the average student,
one not at the top of his class.
These often seem to be the
least publicized and the most
needed. They may be
awarded on the basis of geo
graphic residence, religious
or national origins, parents’
employment or affiliations or
the student’s work commit
ment after graduation.
Every communication or
contact with a possible
source of financial aid should
be carefully thought out and
executed. Conciseness and
neatness are important. Your
first correspondence with a
source of funds should be a
letter of introduction. Above
all, don’t send a short letter
that starts, “I understand you
offer scholarships — please
send me an application."
State clearly your reasons
for wanting to go to college,
including the major and
minor courses of study you
want to pursue. Ask for infor
mation concerning financial
aid requirements and request
an application. If the infor
mation you want to include
seems too long put the high
lights in the letter and in
clude a resume. You will be
asked in many instances for
family and personal financial
statements. So start im-
mediately to have them pre
pared.
A good form to use is the
Parents Confidential State
ment issued by College
Scholarship Service for stu
dents in the eastern United
States or the Family Finan
cial Statement issued by
American College Testing
Program for students in the
Midwest and West.
If your high school does not
have copies of the form you
need write for copies to
either of the following: Col
lege Entrance Examination
Board Publications, Order
Office, Box 592, Princeton,
N.J. 08540, or to American
College Testing Financial
Aid Service, Box 168, lowa

Ex-Tech
player
accused
ATLANTA (UPI) - Former
Georgia Tech football player
John Roy “Bubba” Hoats has
been charged with gambling vio
lations in a massive five - county
crackdown on organized gamb
ling.
Warrants were served on
Hoats Monday by investigator
James Mays of the Intelligence
Division of the DeKalb County
Detectives Department, charg
ing him with communicating
information, keepinga gambling
place and commercial gam
bling. He was released on bond.
Hoats, a native of West
Point, Ga., was not at his De-
Kalb County apartment Sunday
afternoon when police staged
massive raids, in which several
otherpersons were also arrested.
Betting paraphernalia and six
ounces of suspected marijuana
were found in his department,
authorities said.
The former defensive star
transferred to Georgia Tech
after he was named most valu
able player in 1968 at Gordon
Military College.

Vacant Upson school eyed
as detention home site
The use of a vacant Upson
County school building as a
regional temporary detention
home for juveniles has been
mentioned in the wake of Judge
Andrew Whalen’s suggestion
that the Upson Grand Jury
come up with a recommenda
tion on the much needed
facility.
Upson Sheriff Merrill Great
house said that something
might be worked out with the
unused Cunningham School
Campus in Yatesville. He
suggested the facility might be
turned into a regional tem
porary detention home for
juveniles awaiting transfer to
state institutions.
The need for such a center has
especially been felt here in
Griffin as five of seven juveniles
sentenced in last week’s
juvenile court had no place to go
and had to remain here in
Griffin.
Efforts to establish a center
here apparently have failed as
the state has ruled that no
center can be set up within a 50-

House passes bill
WASHINGTON (UPI) - The
House has passed and sent to
the Senate a bill extending the
life of the original Watergate
grand jury for six months
beyond its normal Dec. 4
expiration, and allowing anoth
er six-month extension after
that
mile radius of Atlanta.
Judge Whalen termed the
jailing of juveniles with adults
“a deplorable situation” and
added that even hardened
juveniles “don’t deserve to be
locked up with an adult — it only
makes the juvenile situation
worse.”
Griffin circuit juveniles have
been sent to detention centers in
Fulton and Clayton Counties.
But the circuit has been notified
that they can no longer accept
these juveniles “even on a
paying basis.” That leaves no
alternative except to jail the
juveniles, regardless of age,
with adults, either in the Griffin
city jail or at the Spalding
County jail.
Some juvenile cases can be
handled on supervised proba
tion, but according to Judge

Whalen, some juveniles have to
be put behind bars and not
turned back on the streets as,
“We have tried it and they are
out stealing and breaking in by
night.”
Whalen said his primary
concern is with the four counties
in his circuit — Spalding, Up
son, Pike and Fayette —
although the need includes all
eight counties of the Mclntosh
Trail Planning Commission.
He suggested that each
county might share the costs, if
not for a regional center, for a
four-county circuit detention
home for the juveniles who now
wait in jails until space opens in
a state facility.
Whalen said even the regional
center would require a full-time
staff, perhaps two couples and
some kitchen help.
