Col. Handrix urged students
take the test.
^ "The test is for the student’s
benefit as well as for the Nation’s
^good, Col. Hendrix said. “A local
board should have full information
about a student in order to classify
him, including his class standing
and a score on this test. A high
itest score may compensate for low
class standing; and high class
standing may compensate fo ra low
test score.
“The purpose of student defer
ments is to give promising students
an opportunity to continue to pre
pare themselves for careers in sup
port of the national interest.
“The undergraduate student who
today does not plan cwi graduate
study may change his plans as he
nears graduation,” Col. Hendrix
added. “That is the time that a de
ferment may be most important.
That is also the time when a test
score may be important in the local
board’s decision concerning defer
ment.”
Application materials for the test
are now available at the nearest
local board office. Students are
urged to make application early.
The application must be postmark
ed not later than midnight April 6.
Full instructional materials are is
sued with the applications.

Sunday at Taylor Mill
at Savannah.
Spaniards, firmly settled at St.
Augustine, moved north to engage
the British and drive them from
what is now Georgia. The battle
cost the lives of about 250 English
and Spanish soldiers and colonists.
Witnesses said the marsh “ran red
with blood.”
But the method of burial tended
to cast doubt that the skeleton was
that of either a Spaniard or an
Englishman.
Hamilton and W. H. Glover, di
rector of the Ft. Frederica Nation-
the 1 al Park, St. Simons, said the skele
ton was covered with oyster shells
and apparently had been buried
under these shells.
Two noted southeastern archeolo
gists and anthropologists, Dr. A J.
Waring of Savannah and Dr. M.
Kneeberg of the University of Ten
nessee, said the description of the
burial led them to believe the skel
eton was probably that of an “ar
chaic Indian”

HOW TO TELL A DODGE FROM A DODGE
STANDARD OR COMPACT
Identifying a Dodge has become a problem. Because now
there are two. Compact Dodge Lancer. Full-size Dodge
Dart. There is an obvious difference. Size, inside and out.
Dart, the lower picture, is the larger. But otherwise they
are very much alike. Both have a unitized, rust-proofed
body. A superb ride called Torsion-Aire. A battery-saving
alternator. And both have optional three-speed push
button automatic transmissions. Another difference is

BETTER SMILE when you ask her that! Washday
is really a workday for her. She strains to
carry out loads of wet clothes, stretches to
hang them up and take them down, strains to
carry them back into the house. And she’s bur
dened with worry about the weather.
When she gets an electric clothes dryer—and
she will!—she’ll simply pop the clothes into it
and turn a dial. Clean and gentle electric heat
will dry her clothes quickly, completely.
The cost? That’s the happiest part. Through
the years the trend in the price of electricity
has been downward. Today you get nearly
three times as much electricity for your money
as you did 30 years ago.

biggest bargain in your family budget, by far l
