National Merit Scholarship Test Now Administered To Juniors Os interest to every college bound high school student in America is the qualification test of the National Merit Scholar ship Program. Dr. John Stal naker, director, has announced in Evanston, Illinois, several new values of the 1958-1957 Merit Scholarship Program. The National Merit Scholar ship Corporation administers the nation’s largest independently supported college scholarship program for high school stu dents In the 1957-1958 aca demic year it provided more than $5,000,000 worth of four year scholarships. The amount of the scholarship is determined by financial need, and they are renewable annually without fur ther competitive examination. Dr. Stalnaker stated that this national program, which em braces all U. S. territories and possessions, sends thousands of deserving students to college— students whose unusual talents might otherwise be wasted due to their inability to finance the increasing cost of higher edu cation. The 1958-1959 testing program is designed to provide more ser vice to participating students and schools. While it will still serve primarily as a preliminary screening instrument to select thousands of scholarship win ners, the program has several new and important guidance and educational planning features. These additional benefits will be best realized by testing at the end of the junior year rather than at the start of the senior year. These new values are such that many students will want to take the test for purposes of educational or vocational plan- Episcopalians Prepare For Lent Members of Saint Paul’s Epis copal Church are preparing for Lent which begins with Ash Wed nesday, February 19, with several special events.
