Men's Club Plans
i
Christmas Party
Veterans considering schooling
under the GI Bill should make sure
the training institution and the
training program they select have
been certified by the State Appro-
ving Agency, the Veterans Admin-
istration warned this week.
VA explained that some newly
returned veterans are being bll -
ked by few unscrupulous schools
who accept substantial tuit i o n
payments with the verbal promise
that the ex-GIs "will be reimbur-
sed by VA when their papers are
processed."
The law does not permit VA to
pay educational allowances for
training in institutions that do not
have State approval.
Prospective GI trainees should
ask to examine the evidence of
State approval of schools before
advancing any money. '
Advice To Veterans
The Historical Society of the
Town of Barnstable Monday night
voted to participate next year in
the 350th anniversary of the land-
ing of the Pilgrims in Plymouth
in reply to an invitation from that
town.
The Barnstable society's presi-
dent, Frederick B. Matthews, has
turned over all correspondence
and relative material to Louis Ca-
taldo, chairman of the town's His-
torical Commission.
Mr. Matthews attended a meet-
ing of .Plymouth's 350th Anniver -
sary Committee Oct. 16 and has
since gathered considerable ma-
terial outlining the Plymouth pro-
gram. In a letter to Mr. Cataldo,
dated Dec 1, Mr. Matthews wrote :
"This program was discussed
in our executive meeting Nov. 21.
It was felt that regional participa-
tion should be considered by other
historical societies a nd civ i c
groups in the town, especially as
the whole region is involved.
"It was voted that the Historical
Society of the Town of Barnstable
turn over to the Barnstable His-
toric Commission, the responsi -
bility for decisions and action re-
lating to participation in the 'Pil-
grims 350th Anniversary' as pro-
vided in your charter, Chap 40.S.
8D.
"Accordingly, our file of corres-
pondence and relative matter is
enclosed herewith for your atten-
tion.
"Our society wishes to cooperate
with your commission in promot-
ing the historical significance of
Old Barnstable."
