THE COURT OF ORDINARY
FOR THE COUNTY OF
WHEELER, STATE OF
GEORGIA
TO ALL CREDITORS ANDALL
INTERESTED PERSONS OF
THE ESTATE OF OWEN
JOYCE, DECEASED,
You are hereby required to
show cause before the Court
of Ordinary of Wheeler County,
Georgia, to be heldat the Court
house in said County on the
first Monday in January, 1972,
why the application of Gussie
Joyce, being an heir at law
of said deceased, setting out
that the said deceased died
intestate, a resident of said
State and County, and all the
known creditors consent thereto
Some of our national
leaders today say that the
educational policies and
developments in the United
States during the next decade
will determine the future of
our nation, and perhaps the
world itself.
This is not really too bold a
statement when you consider
the breath-taking changes
taking place all around us
today -- social, scientific, in
every area of life. Some of the
more vocal critics of education
feel that professional
educators resist meaningful
change more than any other
group. But growing evidence
documents a strong repiy to
those old attacks.
At all levels of American
education today, but
particularly in higher
education, there are many
exciting experiments
underway. New, fresh,
innovative programs can be
found on the campus of
virtually every progressive
college in the country. Most
can be found right here in the
state of Georgia.
Independents Lead
Several of the independent
colleges in Georgia are trying
unconventional approaches to
degree-credit work. There is
less and less emphasis on
tradition, more and more on
results.
One of the most striking
departures in the country is
being led by the Union for
Experimenting Colleges and
Universities, a growing group
of prestige institutions
working with Antioch College
in Ohio. They now have
approximately a thousand
students, ages 16 to 71,
enrolled in a new University
Without Walls, working
toward standard college
degrees apart from traditional
restrictions of classes,
residence, etc. Guidance is
given, with a close contact
between students and advisors,
but the emphasis is on
self-directed learning.
Drawn by the innovative
aspects of the University
Without Walls, students
present a far richer “mix" of
backgrounds and life styles
than those ordinarily seeking
(or secured creditors will be
served), praying for an order
finding that no administration
upon said estate is necessary,
should not be granted and said
order entered.

Agriculture Job
The nation now has a new
U. S. Secretary of Agriculture,
but he got the job just by the
skin of his teeth.
The Senate confirmed the
nomination of Purdue Univer
sity professor Earl L. Butz,
President Richard M. Nixon’s
nominee, by a vote of 51-44.
It was one of the closest votes
on a Cabinet appointment in
modern times.,
Both Georgia Senators Her
man E, Talmadge and David
H. Gambrell voted against the
Butz nomination,
Sen, Talmadge, chairman of
the Senate Agriculture Com
mittee, opposed Butz in com
mittee hearings and later in
the Senate where he warned
his colleagues that he feared
the American family farm con
cept may be doomed if the
Senate confirmed the nomi
nation of Butz, who served as
under-secretary under Agri
culture gecretary Ezra Taft,
Benson.
Even though Butz has
repudiated many big business
farming ideas he espoused as
an assistant to Benson, Sen.
Talmadge said:
““I doubt that our family farm
ers coxrl survive additional
years der a secretary of
agriculture who reflects the
Benson philosophy.... I have
always been skeptical of ‘death
bed’ conversions. I question
whether any man can repudiate
overnight a philosophy he has
held for a lifetime."’
After the narrow-margin
confirmation vote, Talmadge
said he hopes to be able to
work with the new secretary,
and urged the Nixon administra
tion to get on with the job of
helping ““our farmers’’ solve
their problems.
" A man, on judgment day,
stuck his head out of the tomb
and read his own epitaph,
mused, ‘‘Either somebody is
a terrible liar, or they bur
ied me in the wrong grave.''

Veterans And Their Dependents Have
Civil Service Employment Benefits
“Many veterans are eligible
for special preference when
seeking employment with the
Federal and State Governments,
and in many instances, wives,
widows, and mothers of dis
abled veterans are entitled to
preference,’”” State Veterans
Director Pete Wheeler said.
In Federal employment, Civil
Service preference is generally
granted to veterans of all wars
and certain peacetime veterans.
Veterans have five points added
to their passing scores and
service-connected disabled
veterans have ten points added
to their passing scores on
examinations, A veteran who
has been awarded the Purple
Heart for wounds received in
action is considered to have a
service-connected disability.
“In State employment,”’
Wheeler added, “Merit System
preference is granted by adding
five points to the passing score
of the veteran, and ten points
added to the passing score of
the 10 per cent or more service
connected disabled veteran.”
Under federal Civil Service
Regulations, the wife of a vet
eran disabled in service and
whose disability would dis
qualify him for Civil Service
appointment to jobs along the
line of his usual occupation
may apply for veterans’prefer
ence whereby ten points are
added to the passing score on
federal Civil Service Examina~
tions.
The widow of a veteran who
died in military service is en
titled to veterans’ preference
in seeking Federal employment
as long as the veteran’s mili
tary service record would have
caused him to be discharged
under conditions other than dis
honorable,
“Another provision allows
the mother, widowed or
divorced, of a disabled or de
ceased serviceman the same

dependents.
SOCIAL SECURITY
NEWS & VIEWS
Some workers in this area
unknowingly place their social
security earnings records in
jeopardy, according to Charles
F. Hall, Branch Manager of the
Dublin Social Security Office.
Commenting on this risky prac
tice, Mr. Hall said most of
these are workers who fail to
show their social security cards
to their employers the very
first day on the job.
They also include workers
who do not make sure that the
employer keeps a permanent
record of the name and account
number exactly as these appear
on the individual’s card, for
use in filing reports of earnings.
Self-employed persons may fail
to show their social security
numbers on tax returns.
Since the social security
number is the very key to
benefits for the worker and his
‘family when he retires, dies,
or becomes totally disabled,
these benefits therefore depend
entirely on the correctness of
earnings reports made during
the individual’s working life.
Mr. Hall said failure to be
properly credited with all his
rightful earnings can seriously
affect the worker’s benefits
later on, and in some cases
could mean no benefit at all is
payable.
Mr. Hall urged each worker
to do his part in safeguarding
this valuable protection by
checking on his own social se
curity record regularly, and by
seeing that each of his
employers has anduses correct
information on name and
number from the social security
card itself.
Other protective measures
the worker should take include
the use of only one social se
curity number for his life
time, Regardless of how many
replacements of lost cards he
may require, no one should
ever have more than one social
security number. In case of
name changes, workers should
notify their social security of
fice and be issued a new card
which will still carrythe origin
al number.
Full service about any social
security matter can be obtained
simply by calling the Dublin
Office TELESERVICE number

Georgia®s 1972
s
Title | Funds Out
Georgia is among 15 states
whose 1972 federal grants for
compensatory education will be
less than last year.
According to Billy Tidwell,
director, Compensatory Edu
cation and Title I, Elementary
and Secondary Education Act,
Georgia Department of Edu
cation, Georgia’s Title I pro
gram will operate in 1972 with
more than $3 million less than
last year and some $6 million
less than was expected.
Tidwell explained that the
cutback came for three reasons.
(1) The appropriation act for
fiscal year 1972 did not include
as it has in the past a floor
provision that no state’s allo
cation for Title lof the Elemen
tary and Secondary Education
Act would be reduced from the
previous year. (2) The state’s
per-pupil expenditure was less
than the national average. (3)
In 1971, Georgia reported fewer
children from families re
ceiving AFDC (Aid to Families
with Dependent Children) pay
ments.
Georgia was not alone in the
loss, however. All of the
Southern states, with the ex
ception of Florida and Texas,
will receive less money for
Title I in 1972, On the other
hand, 32 states and the District
of Columbia will receive more
money than infiscal 1971, Three
other states will receive exactly
the same allocation. The total
1972 Title 1 appropriation is
$1.565 billion nationally,
