Explains Rulings
On Life Insurance
C. L. Beam, county veterans' ser
vice officer, Beaufort, announced
today that National Service Life
insurance that has lapsed and
which was taken out more than
eight years ago is not renewable.
He added that lapsed NSLI pol
icies less than eight years old can
be renewed in any amount of mul
tiples of a $1,000. This applies to
policies taken out prior to July 5,
1947. Policies taken out since that
date will expire on the fifth anni
versary date of the policy and un
less in premium-paying condition,
will not be renewable.
Veterans wishing to continue
NSLI insurance should contact the
service officer.
Beam explained that men enter
ing the armed forces 3ince June
25, 1950 are issued a $10,000 pol
icy with all NSLI coverage free of
charge. That can be continued by
paying premiums after being re
leased from the service. The vet
eran, however, cannot carry a pay
able government policy and a free
government policy simultaneously.
Ten thousand dollars is the limit
for each individual.
The person may carry any a
mount of commercial insurance he
wishes, the service officer added.
All servicemen who relinquish
policies now held will be refunded
premiums ha^k to June 25, 1950
or back to the date of the policy
if the policy was issued after June
25, 1950, Beam concluded.

Officers Swoop Down y
On Cape Bird Hunters
Eight men were charged with
violating fedVal migratory water
iowl pfptcction laws after they
were arrestee by federal and state
officers near Cape Lookout early
Saturday morning.
The officers confiscated one dead
loon and found evidence that sev
eral willetts, curlews and Hudson
shore birds had been shot. The
Hudson birds are virtually extinct
and all-out efMrts are being made
to protect them.
G. A. Jones, jr., of Raleigh, chief
law enforcement officer of the
State Wildlife Resources commis
sion. said the alleged violators were
spotted by plane. Names of the
men arrested have not been re
leased.
Jones, accompanied by Rod
Amundson, chief of the education
division of the commission, piloted
the plane over the marshy area
just south of Harker's Island.
'The arrest* were made through
the coordinating action by Jones
and Amundson in the plane and
the officers on the ground.
More than 50 men were arreated
on identical charges in the same
locale about this time last year,
Jones said. These violators were
each fined $50 and costs in federal
court.
"However," Jones added, "the
federal judge at the time warned
that such light penalties would not
be given in future cases of similar
violations."
The penalties were held at a
minimum since there appeared to
be no general knowledge that the
water birds were restricted, Jones
said.
Wing and leg bones of the birds
make excellent blueflah bait, Jcmeg
said. He said that residents of the
coastal region also find the birds
very palatable.
The birda are migrating north
at this time of the year.'

Scientist Studies
At Oak Ridge
Theodore R. Rice, fisheries re
search biologist with the U. S. Fish
ancfr Wildlife service it the shell
fish laboratory in Beaufort, is
studying the techniques of using
radioisotopes in research at Oak
Ridge, Tenn. He is among 32
scientists enrolled in the twentieth
in a series of courses in radioiso
tope techniques given by the Oak
Ridge Institute of Nuclear Stud
ies.
Radioisotopes are atoms which

scientists using a Geiger counter
to trace them through complicated
chemical and biological processes.
Oak Ridge is the center of radio
isotope production in this country.
Over 17,000 shipments of radio
isotopes have been made from Oak
Ridge National laboratory to 724
institutions in 44 states, the Dis
trict of Columbia, Alaska, Hawaii,
and 29 foreign countries.
The institute offers these radio
isotope courses to staff members
of the institutions to enable them
to use this new research tool with
maximum efficiency and safety.
Dr. Rice plans to use radioiso
topes in tracer and lower plant
physiology studies. He received his
bachelor's degree from Berea col
lege and his matter's and Ph.D. de
grees from Harvard university. He
is a member of the Society of Sig
