YOU 'VE seen it happen with the
family down the street, the friends
across town, the folks you went to
school with.
They started out, as most folks do, with
a car of modest size—and still more
modest price.
? Maybe they moved themselves up a bit,
step by step, to the top-bracket models
in that particular price range.

It doesn’t cost much more—sometimes
no more—to really blossom out in a
Buick. :
It’s not such a long stretch to take com
mand of a great-hearted valve-in-head
straight-eight—to move into the room
and restfulness and steady going of
a Buick—to cloak yourself in styling
that’s today’s height of highway fashions.
Ku can know the good, satisfying feel
of a Buick wheel in your hand—you can
have the gentleness of soft coil springs
oa all four wheels— you can revel in the
handiness of cars that are big in room
and big in repute, yet traffic-sized and
easy to park and put away.

Vets' Children
{(an Get Naval,
}" ATLANTA, Ga. — Children of
veterans of World War I and II
may secure direct appointment by
‘the President of the United States
to the Military Academy at- West
Point or to the aval Academy at
-Annapolis, if the child’s veteran
parent was killed in action or died
as a result of honorable service.
This information was received to
day from William K. Barrett, di
rector of the State Department of
Veterans Service, who released an
explanation of the little known
provision of Public Law 778, 77th
Congress.
According to Barrett, the presi
dential appointments to Annapolis
and West Point are provided for
in P. L. 778, only 1f the applicant’s
parent died in service, or as a re
sult of service. These direct ap
pointments by the President are in
addition to — and not to be con
fused with — appointments by
members of Congress. (The usual
method of gaining entrance to the
military and mnaval academies.)
The President is allowed to ap
point applicants, providing that a
total of-not more than 40 are in

Managers Ald
Barrett added that these ap
pointments can be made by the
President even after the quota of
appointments for each member of
Congress is filled. He also reveal
ed that the managers of the 68
Field Offices of the State Depart
ment of Veterans Service will be
pleased to aid any eligible appli
cant in making proper application
for presidential appointment to the
military or naval academy. The
local veterans Service Office is lo
cated at 283 1-2 E. Broad Street,
Raymond E. Lester, is manager of
the office.
Very rigid mental and physical
requirements for entrance into
either of the academies must be
met, Barrett stated, and advised
that prospective applicants take
several months of special prepara
tory schooling before applying for
a presidential appointment. For
the Military Academy, he stated
the applicants must be between
the ages of 17 and 22 years; for
the Naval Academy they must be
between 17 and 21. i
Applications for presidential ap
‘pointment should be made and ad
dressed to the Adjutant General,
Department of the Army, Wash
ington, D. C., for those interested
in attending West Point, and %o the
Chief of Naval Personnel, Depart
ment of the Navy, Washington, D.
C., for those persons interested in
attending the Naval Academy. Ap
plicant’s letter should include full
name and address, date and place
of birth, name of deceased parent
and date and cause of parent’s
death.
In determining if the war or
phan is eligible for presidential
appointment under the provisions
of P. L. 778, Barrett stated, the
decision of the Veterans Admine
istration as to whether the pare
was killed in the service or died
as a result of service connected in
juries shall be final.
