Since I had no earn ings during this period, could I collect social security disabili ty benefits? A. No, monthly social se curity benefits'can be paidonfy for a severe disability that is expected to last a year or long er. Monthly payments may start with the seventh month of disability. In addition, the disability must be so severe that it makes it impossible for the worker to engage in any substantial gainful activity. Q. I will be getting mar - ried this month.. Since I will be protected as the wife of a worker covered by social secu rity, why do I have to contri - bute? / Ai When you are ready bo retire, you might qualify for higher cash benefits based on your own eligibility and earn ings record. During your work ing years, you and your child - ren could receive disability benefits based on your wor If • record. And, if you should die while your children are still young, they could receive monthly survivors benefits base! on your record. - Q. I'm a 19-year-old stu dent getting social security be nefits. Since I'm not sure whe ther 111 stay in school after this year, how should I com - plete the student reporting card I get in the mail? A. Indicate on the report that you will not attend school next year.- This will prevent any possible overpay - merit to you. If you decide to return to school, get in touch with any social security office as soon as you know you will start attending full time again. Q. I'm a college student getting monthly social security checks. Since I've already told social security I would be in college until 1973, why do I have to fill put and send in a student reporting card? A, Students sometimes have to change their plans. The End of the School Year Report veri fies a student's cunrent enroll ment status and his continuing intent to attend school full time. Q. I will graduate frcm high school this June and I won't be going back to school in the fall. My 18th birthday is in August. Will my monthly social security checks stop when I graduate in June? A. No. You will get your last social security check on August 3 for the month of July. You do not have to be a full time student to receive checks if,you are under 18.

Now, the payments qre mailed to my father. How ever, 1 am planning to transfer to an out-of-state school short ly. Can I have my checks mail ed directly to me? A. Yes, a student benefici ary can have his benefits paid directly to him. Contact any social security office to make this chaste. Q. lam confused about when to file for Social Security disability benefits. I have heard about both a 6 month waiting period and a 12 month waiting period. Can you explain which is correct/ ‘A. You should file an appli cation for benefits as so on as it is determined that you are likely to be disabled for a -year or longer. The 6 month per - iod is the waiting period. You can file your application dur ing this period but no month ly payments can be made fcr the first 6 full calendar montls of disability. The twelve month period refers to the expected duraticn of the disability. Social Secu rity can pay benefits only if the disability is expected to last at least 12 months or long er, and is serious enough to rule out any substantial gain ful work. ALCOHOL PROBLEMS? There is HELP FOR ALCOHOLICS AND THEIR FAMILIES For Information Call The Yancey County ALCOHOLISM TASK FORCE 682-6128 BY JIM DEAN Hardly a day passes that someone doesn't write the N.C, Wildlife Resources Commission and ask where they can get a good map of some part of the ? state. Trout fishermen write to ask about maps of wilderness areas in the west. Bass fishermen want maps of lakes. Hunters and hikers want topographical maps. Salt water fishermen ask for charts-of the Atlantic Ocean, or the sounds behind the Outer Banks. Most good sportsmen recog - nize the value of good maps and many collect them. A map won't show you how to catch a fish, but it may very well show you where to catch them. The Wildlife Commission does not keep a file of maps to send sportsmen, partly because there are so many types, and partly because most are produc ed by other agencies and pri vate firms. Also, m any cf these maps are not free. Even so, we can tell you where you can get some of the maps that you may want. One of the most frequent requests is for topographic maps that show contour lines,slppes, mountains and other surface characteristics. These maps are quite detailed, and although all of the state has not yet been mapped topographically, the coastal and mountain regions are fairly complete.Topo maps cover only a small area, and there are hundreds available^ Sportsmen who are interes - ted in obtaining topographic maps should write to the Dis tribution Section, Geological Survey, 1200 South Eads Street, Arlington, Virginia 22202 and ask for a free index to the topo graphic maps far North Carolina. The maps are not cheap, but by being selective, you can us ually find what you're, looking for. Aerial photographs are also often requested, particularly by sportsmen who want to use than in conjunction with topo maps. Aerial photo map 6 are expen sive (several dollars each), but you can get an index for them from your county Agricultural Stabilization Conservation Ser vice Office (ASCS). After pick ing out the ones you want, you can fill out a form so that they may be ordered. Coastal charts are available Yancey Health Dept. June 15, Thurs. X-Ray 10:00-11*00 June IS, Thins.

Be a volunteer driver for one or two of the Clinics of the Health Department. We wouldn't call on you > mare than once or twice in a month, but your help in drill ing persons without transportation to the Child Health or Fam ily Planning Clinics could be of the greatest service.

County maps (either indivi dual or in a bound edition) are available through the State Highway Commission in Ra - leigh. They show many roads not found on gasoline company road maps, and they can be use ful; however, the bound editicn is quite expensive and buHcy. The U. S. Forest Service al so publishes a number of useful maps, particularly of Pis ga h and Nantahala National Forests. They are roughly the size of gasoline road maps, but show much more detail and also sane contours. You can get Forest Service maps by writing the Forest Supervisor, National For ests in North Carolina, Box 275 Q Asheville, N.C.28802. Blue Ridge Parkway maps may also be useful, and you may get these by writing the Superintendent of the Blue Parkway, Box 1710, Roanoke, Virginia 24008. The Tennessee Valley Auth ority and Duke Power Company have, in the past, offered lake maps of many North Carolina lakes, and some may still be available. Write TVA Maps G Engineering Records Section, 500 Union Avenue, Knoxville, Tennessee 37900, or Duke Pow er Company, Box 2178, Char lotte, N.C. 28201. For the average angler or hunter who would like to have maps and outdoor information in a single, usable book, the best bet statewide is probably to order the "Freshwater Fishiig and Hunting in North Carolina" book "from the Alexandria Draf ting Company, 417 E. Clifford Avenue, Alexandria, Va. 22305. The company also sells "Salt Water Sport Fishing and Boatdrg in North Carolina. " Both book contain excellent maps, and you may find them on your lo cal newsstand or at tackle stene: They cost $5. 43 including pos tage. The "Coastal Fishing and cation Guide" published by the . Graphic Press, Box 26808, Ra leigh, N.C. 27611 and selling for $2. 50 is another good sourc of coastal maps. These books are also available at newsstan. and tackle stores.
