Page Four CLOUDBUSTER Saturday, July 1, 1944 COVEY (Continued from page one) a Veteran’s Placement Service, initiates an office in the U. S. Em ployment Service which shall be responsible for supervising the legistration of veterans seeking jobs, and which shall assist in every possible way in improving working conditions and the ad vancement of employment of the returning veteran. Title Five makes provisions for readjustment allowances for for mer members of the Armed Forces who are unemployed and cannot find suitable work. The usual ninety days service, and discharge other than dishonorable, are pre requisites. To such an eligible veteran, residing in the United States at the time he makes a claim for benefits under this Title, who is unemployed or is only par tially employed and makes less than $23 per week, who is regis tered with and continues to report to a public employment office, and who is able to work and available for suitable work, the following allowances are possible: The al lowance per week will be $20, less that part of wages he has paid to him each week which is in excess of $3.00. Thus a man earning $15 per week would be eligible for $8 in benefits. These allowances will be paid for a period not to exceed 52 weeks, and must occur not later than two years after discharge or termination of the war, whichever is the later date. A veteran will be disqualified for the benefits listed under this title if: he leaves suitable work without good cause or is dis charged from employment for mis conduct; if he fails to apply for suitable work or refuses to accept suitable work; or if he does not attend an available free training course without good cause. The Sixth and last Title ex plains the administrative and penal provisions for the adminis tration of the act. In the last paragraph of the Bill there is a line that says tliat any benefits received under the G. I. Bill of Rights will be deduct ed from any allowance or adjusted compensation which shall occur hereafter for the benefit of vete rans. Anyone who wishes more infor mation about the bill may secure a copy from their State Congress man or Senator by merely asking for the act called the “G. I. Bill of Rights.” And that is my interpretation of the “G. I. Bill of Rights.” Regimental Staff m MEMBERS of the cadet regimental staff, chosen from the 50th battalion, are pictured above, left to right: D. C. Grimes, Chicago, 111., regimental commander; M. M.

BASEBALL (Continued from page three) The Morris Field game played here Sunday saw the winners score five times in the lucky seventh. Until that frame the Cloudbusters were ahead, 6 to 2. Ed O’Neill con nected for a home run in the ninth to bring the Pre-Flighters within one run of victory. It was another case of scoring in the late innings that defeated the local team at Fort Bragg. The soldiers scored nine times in the eighth frame. A home run by Grant in the last of the ninth gave Camp Butner two runs and a 7-7 tie. The game was called at the end of the 11th on account of darkness. WAVES (Continued from page one) Back in 1942 she decided that she would like to join the WAVES, so she gave up her teaching job in St. Louis and reported to the Re serve Midshipman’s School at Northampton. Her class was among the first to receive officers’ training in the WAVES. Upon completing her work she was commissioned an Ensign and ordered to report to Madison, Wis consin as a staff officer of a radio school located there. The follow ing April, 1943, she was detached from Madison to Hutchinson, Kansas at the Naval Air Sta tion. Her duty there consisted of being the Woman’s Reserve Rep resentative and also aide to the commanding officer. In October of 1943 Ensign Cer- nich was promoted to Lt. (jg)> and in January of this year she reported to the Navigation School at Hollywood, Florida. Upon completing her training, she was detached to Chapel Hill. Ensign Crawford hails from Salina, Kansas. She was grad uated from Kansas Wesleyan with an A.B. in English Literature iii 1943. The following December she joined the WAVES, and, like Lt. (jg) Cernich, reported to North ampton. From Northampton she went to Hollywood and Naviga tion School, and then to Chapel Hill. Both officers received their first taste of instructing the cadets this past week. They like it fine, they say.
