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.
