V eterans’ Children
May Get Study Aid
Some Veterans’ Orphans Not Applying
For Education Aid Through Government
Some Georgia children, whose
fathers lost their lives in war
time service, apparently are not
taking advantage of the federal
government's offer to help them
get an education.
This statement came from
Pete Wheeler, director of the
State Department of Veterans
Service, in a report on the War
Orphans Educational Program.
A total of 186 Georgia youths
received the'federal aid under
the program during this past
school year, Wheeler reported.
So far, 264 have applied, or in
dicated they plan to apply, for
aid during the school year be
ginning next fall, Wheeler said.
“But estimates are that there
may be twice as many young
people eligible for this program
next fall,” Wheeler said.
Young men and women whose
parent served in World War I,
World War 11, or the Korean
War, and died of injuries or dis
ease resulting from their mili
tary service, are eligible for fi
nancial aid to get the education
they might otherwise have ob
tained had the parent lived. The
veteran-parent must have died
of a disease or injury incurred or
aggravated in line of duty in ac
tive military service.
Generally, war orphans must
be between 18 and 23 years of
age to receive these education
al benefits.
However, the program may be
gin at age 14 for students who
require special training or reha
bilitation as a result of handicap
or disability.
The grants range from SSO per
month for part-time training to
sllO for full time.
Wheeler said it has been fig
ured that some 7,100 Georgia
youths are potentially eligible
for the federal benefits.
He said offices of the State
Department of Veterans Service
will be glad to assist in furnish
ing further information or filing
applications. "•

LOCAL NAVY MEN
PARTICIPATE IN
SHIP LANDINGS

of Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Little of
Route 2, Summerville, serving
aboard the dock landing ship
USS Point Defiance, and Arthur
S. King, boatswain’s mate sec
ond class, USN, of 800 Highland
Street, Summerville, who serves
with Boat Unit One, took part
in an amphibious landing on
the beaches of Camp Pendleton,
California, recently.
The operation, known as
“Twin Peaks”, involved more
than 60 Navy ships and 25,000
Marines and was the largest ex
ercise of its type since January
1957.
Participating in “Twin Peaks”
were cruisers, destroyers, mine
sweepers, submarines, under
water demolition teams, and as
sorted amphibious force ships
which comprised both “friend
ly” and “aggressor” forces. They
employed conventional and sim
ulated atomic weapons in carry
ing out their part in the am

PLANS LAID FOR
SET-UP OF FOUR
STATE SCHOOLS
ATLANTA—(GPS) Approval of
more than sl-million in state
funds for use in extending Geor
gia’s trade school program has
been announced jointly by Gov
ernor Ernest Vandiver and State
School Superintendent Claude
Purcell.
The money—“accumulated by
efficient and economical man
agement in the Department of
Education” — will launch the
first four of eleven area voca
tional-technical schools which
have been approved by the State
Board of Education to bring
training in industrial skills
within reach of all youths and
adults in Georgia who want
them, the joint statement said.
The first four schools will be
located in Albany, Augusta, Co
lumbus and Rome. Separate
schools for both whites and
Negroes are included in the
plans for the first three. There
are too few Negroes in the Rome
area to make such a school prac
tical there, it was pointed out.
The amount of money ear
marked for the first so u r
schools, which is to be matched
equally by local funds, will come
from these three sources:
$600,000 in capital outlay funds
already set aside for building
'purposes; $295,000 in state funds
budgeted for vocational educa
|tion, and $155,787.50 already re
i ceived by the Education Depart
: ment in federal funds allotted
to Georgia under the new Na
tional Defense Education Act.
(During the next three years
Georgia will receive $446,298 a
year in federal funds if Congress
makes the full appropriation
authorized by Public Law 864.
This can be used only for the vo
cational-technical courses. Oth
jer courses also are planned for
the area schools.)
“The setting up of these
■ schools,” declared Governor
Vandiver, “will give our people—
both white .and Negro — the
j training they need to got and
; hold good paying jobs in indus
try, keep our standard of living
| high, and do much to continue
attracting new industry to
Georgia where it can be sure of
’ finding these well - trained
! workers.”
Said Superintendent Purcell:
i “The urgent need of industry for
i more trained workers and for
the re-training of workers for
new and changing job require
| ments prompted the Education
; Department some months ago to
: begin plans to increase its trade
i school program. Already the de
' partment has been operating
two state trade schools, one in
Americus and one in Clarkes
ville.
“These schools have been, for
some time, filled to capacity.
The department, with the ap
proval of the State Board of
Education, launched plans to
establish area trade schools
throughout Georgia so that
there would be such a school
within drive-in distance for all
those who wished this training.
“While this plan was in prep
aration, the 85th Congress en
acted the National Defense Edu
cation Act which allotted to
Georgia, among other funds,
$1.5-million that can be used for
vocational - technical training
! necessary to the nation’s de
fense. This money must be
matched during the next four
i years.”
Besides the first four schools
।to be put into operation, the
I State Education Board has ap-
I proved sites for similar schools

Marietta, Swainsboro. Thomas
ville and Valdosta. Total funds
necessary for setting up these
eleven schools—half from state
and half from local sources—
will be $7,110,000, Purcell ex
plained.
Plans also call for a Negro vo
cational school, with dormitory
facilities, to be set up in Atlanta
as part of Carver High School.
The project, expected to exceed
$1.5-million, was chosen for At
lanta because of greater job op
portunities for well - trained
Negroes with industrial skills.
Still another project for Ne
groes under this program is
being developed at Savannah.
