That, plus the fact that they must be middle-aged (real mlddled-aged) women are the only requirements. Through a clerical mix up at old local 34 In Winston-Salem, yours truly was re-classifled 1-A, a prime target for the military. (I must admit that drafting me would be a sure fire method for ending the war in Viet Nam, but I never wanted to be martyr . . .) It’s a long story, but since I have about twelve Inches to fill, and we’ve all ready re-run ‘‘Fat’s Where It’s At This Year”, I’ll bore you with it. It all started the Wednesday before Spring vacation when my parents called here to tell me I had received a letter from Local Board No. 34, in Forsyth County. In their friendly fan letter, they informed me that I had one week to supply them with Information as to my sta tus as a student at S. A. Fine, I went to the Registrar’s Office and asked them to send the needed Information. All was well, or so I thought. But the roof fell in when, two days later, (one heck of a short week) I got a second letter in forming me of the good news. Since local boards get Sat urday and the'Satoat'h (why?) off, It was necessary to wait until the following Monday to confront the smiling faces of local 34. Local 34 is housed on the sec ond floor of an office building in downtown Winston-Salem. It is a smoke filled room (re sembling, I’m sure. Room 404 In which the late great Warren G. Harding was nominated as: BULLFEATHERS President) with stacks of files and four charming ladles who were all more than willing to come to the aid of a be wildered 1-A. I sat down and explained that I was a student at St. Andrews, etc. and that the Registrar had forgotten to include my number of credits on my determent sheet and that they were sending it to them. One of the four star ted lecturing me on my duty of filling out the forms. Quietly I explained that I had filled out all of the necessary forms, but before I finished she threw her arms up and started shout ing that “This is always the boy’s fault, always the boy’s fault!” I left hurriedly saying that i would, the Lord Willing, re turn. Two days later I set out a- galn, my fate resting with the Post Office Department who were striking all over the place. Once more my story was told, and the lady said she would check the files (which were spread out on the tables and on the floors of the office) She checked, but with no luck. Then she checked the days mail, 'looking for a Laurinburg, South Carolina post mark. I then suggested that she look in my personal folder (what a fantastic idea!) “When Is your birthday?” she asked. “October 30th’'. "When is your birthday.” “October 30th.” When Is your birth-” “1949!” “Thank you”. iviuttering something about getting offthe government mail ing list, I watched her check my folder. The little sheet of paper was sitting there, grln- (Continued to Page 4) by Cline hodson moOT THE- ^£L£CTH/e J* - -T sufte uiiSH rney lOene q LTTLe £E^LeCTiVE .. Student, Faculty Grants Awarded To the Editor of the Lance: As director of the NSF- COSIP program, I am pleased to announce that 10 members of our science faculty and all un dergraduate science majors have been awarded grants to carry out full-time research for eight weeks duringthe sum mer of 1970. Each student will work directly with a faculty member carrying out research in the area of the faculty mem ber’s interest. A list of the participants and the research projects is enclosed. These funds were awarded under our National Science Foundation - College Science Improvement Grant. It should be noted that St. Andrews was one of the first fifteen colleges in the country to receive one of these grants. Recently, Dr. G. Tyler Miller, Jr. Professor of Chemistry, was asked to out line the new St. Andrews science program at a meeting of all NSF undergraduate directors from across the country. St. Andrews was one of three colleges in the country selected to present pa pers on new approaches to science education. It should al so be noted that during the past three years, St, Andrews has received over $1,500,000 In out side grants for the development of its new science program and building. This is a district honor for the students, who were selected from a number of qualified ap plicants. It is a rare opportu nity for them to gain valuable research experience and it could in some cases lead to the publishing of full profes sional papers during their undergraduate career. I am particularly pleased to note that most of the participants are either feshmen or sophomore students. It is also important to note that as a result of this grant, every member of the science faculty will be engaged in re search activity during the com- WSAP Giveaway Thursday Look out St. Andrews . . .
