Medical Expense Category
Causes Many Taxpayer Errors
Greensboro, N. C.—A com
mon error made by North Car
olina taxpayers last year in
volved medical expenses, espe
cially the deduction for medi
cal insurance premiums, J. E.
Wall, District Director of In
ternal Revenue for North Car
olina, said today.
Wall emphasized that on
itemized returns, one-half the
premium paid for medical in
surance, up to a maximum of
$l5O, may be deducted in full
as a medical expense without
regard to the 3 percent limita
tion.
Many persons failed to take
advantage of this provision
last year and had to file claims
for refunds.
The balance of the premium
cost for medical insurance
should be added to other med
ical costs and reduced by 3
percent of income. Life insur
ance and accident and health
insurance covering the loss of
earnings are not medical ex
penses and the premiums paid
are not deductible.
Wall pointed out that all
taxpayers must reduce medical
expenses by 3 percent of their
income. Such medical expenses
include the cost of drugs and
medicine that exceeds 1 per
cent of income. The excess over
this amount is deductible.
The handling of medical ex
penses is explained in the
Form 1040 instructions as well
as the IRS Publication 17,
"Your Federal Income Tax,"
which may"be purchased for

Education Pays off For Gulf
Oil Company Employee, Al Smith
PITTSBURG - Education
is an important thing to Gulf
Oil Sales Representative Al
Smith, and he has made it pay
off for him in three ways.
Smith has been with Gulf
since July, 1967, and has re
presented Gulf in Tampa, Fla.,
and now in Atlanta, Ga., in a
job that gives him special satis
faction. But without college
and his wife's college-he might
still be an enlisted man in the
Air Force.
"My family has been proud
that all five of the youngsters--
me, my brother and three sis
ters-all have college degrees,"
he said. "I almost didn't make
it, but I'm happy now that I
did."
After high school in his
native Atlanta, Al enlisted for
four years in the U. S. Air
Force. It was during that time
that an officer, seeing Al's po
tential, took him under his
wing and encouraged him to
get a college background, then
re-enter the service, either as an
officer or as a prospect for
Officers Candidate School.
Al entered Morris Brown
College in Atlanta when his
hitch was up, and by working
nights and going to school days
was able to earn a Bachelor of

TEENS SEE HIGHER
SALARIES THROUGH
HIGHER EDUCATION
Interesting jobs. High salar
ies.
These are the No. 1 and No. 2
goals for many of today's teen
agers when they look ahead to
the middle working years.
To achieve these aims, the
youngsters overwhelmingly
agree: formal education must
not stop at grade No. 12.
These encouraging insights
into the thinking of today's
youth are among the findings of
a recent survey of high school
juniors and seniors conducted
by the Institute of Life Insur
ance.
Students' Aims
The survey revealed that:
• Eight out of 10 of the young
men and women are determined
to continue their education be
yond high school.
• A third of this group will
seek admission at four-year col
leges and universities.
• The balance will turn to
community and junior colleges,
along with technical, nursing,
secretarial, and vocational in
stitutions once high school has
been completed.
And who will pay for this ad
ditional training?
For the most part, the young
sters themselves plan to con
tribute substantially, the Insti
tute survey showed.
• More than 40 per cent in
tend to work while going to col
lege—not a new experience in
many cases. (About 70 per cent
of those interviewed had in
comes ranging from $6 to more
than S4O a week at the time of
the survey.)
• Over a third of the students
will dip into personal savings to
help pay for their schooling
savings acquired through cur
rent after-school employment.

Second Food Program
Begins in S. Carolina
BEAUFORT, S. C.
The federal government be
gins a food-by-prescription pro
gram Monday in Beaufort and
Jasper counties as its second ef
fort within a week to help needy
persons in southernmost South
Carolina.
The program, sponsored by
the U.S. Department of Agricul
ture and U. S. Children's Bu
reau, will make 66,000 pounds
of groceries available ii the
counties.
The free food will be distrib
uted at doctors orders to
pregnant women, new moihers
and children suffering from mal
nutrition.
The new program is separate
from the free food stamp project
initiated in coastal Beaufort and
Jasper counties last Monday.

the Agriculture Department's

Pork Crown Roast For Easter Guests
Break away from the Easter tradition of baked ham. Excite
your holiday guests with a pork crown roast prepared in a
covered barbecue kettle. This bright-idea way of roasting im
parts to the meat and its special stuffing the savory flavor of
smoke oven cooking and provides a gala opening to the forth
coming barbecue season.
Select an eight to 10-pound roast for the best table appearance
and cook over indirect medium heat. A Weber covered barbecue
kettle is ideal for this. Allow about 19 minutes per pound roast
ing time—approximately three to three and a half hours roasting
time, depending upon the size of the crown roast you choose.
Stuff the cavity of the roast with the tasty stuffing provided
below. When putting it on the grill, place a small sheet of heavy
duty aluminum foil under the center to retain the stuffing. Also,
cover the exposed stuffing with foil. Pierce both sheets to allow
the aroma of covered kettle cooking to permeate the stuffing. Use
basting sauce during the last bait hour of roasting. At that time
remove the upper foil to browh the stuffing.
As a further suggestion, foil-wrap apples, which have been
washed, cored and filed with brown sugar, l A teaspoon of cin
namon and a pat of butter, and bake alongside the roast for
the last hour.
Staffing for Pork Crows Roast
Vi cup butter Vt teaspoon sage
1 large 8 oz. can button Vi cup celery, chopped
mushrooms 1 13-oz. can pineapple tidbits,
1 small onion, chopped drained (reserve liquid)
V 4 cup dry minced parsley 2V4 cups bread cubes
SauU mushrooms in melted butter for 5 minutes. Add to re
maining ingredients and mix well. Stuff tightly into cavity of
roast, allowing stuffing to mound at the top.
Basting Sauce
Boil reserved pineapple juice down to Vi cup. Add V 4 cup
