Financial Help Available
To Help College Students
Mrs. Virginia Maples, senior
counselor, has released informa-
tion she has received on various
financial aid programs for those
students planning to attend college.
NATIONAL DEFENSE Student
Loan, for those students planning to
teach or enter the military service
after graduation, provides up to
$1,000 per academic year. This is
to be repaid as much as half each
year, at 10-12.5 per cent, but must
be repayed within ten years after
graduation. To receive the loan,
the student must prove financial
need and prove his ability to do
collegework.
Students whose families are in
the middle to upper income group
may be eligible for a Federally In-
sured Loan. Banks and other fi-
nancial institutions grant as much
as $1,500 a year, guaranteed by the
federal government. If the family’s
income is less than $15,000 annual-
ly, the federal government will pay
the interest on the loan while the
student is in college. The student
begins repayment of the loan six
months after graduation at $30 per
month and seven per cent interest
per year. Requisites for the loan
are good academic standing and at
least half-time enrollment at an
academic institution.
For those entering the field of
law enforcement, the Law Enforce-
ment Educational Loan provides a
maximum amount of $1,800 per
academic year.
Texas provides the Hinson-Ha-
zlewood College Student Loan. This
Movie Scene
is open only to state residents and
furnishes up to $1,500 per year,
to be repaid at seven per cent year-
ly interest.
CONNALLY-CARILLO p A ex-
empts students from the payment
of tuition and certain other fees if
the student is in the top 25 per cent
of the national norm on the College
Entrance Examination Board Ex-
ams; his family’s income last year
was not over $4,800; and the stu-
dent accepts no other scholarship
awards.
Scholarships, in addition to loans
and grants, are also available.
However, these generally emphasize
academic merit more than finan-
cial need. Among these are the
Tuition Scholarship for Texas resi-
dents providing v $25 per semester
for students showing sufficient fi-
nancial need.
MATCHED with other loans and
scholarships is the Educational
Opportunity Grant for students with
exceptional "financial need and
whose family income is less than
$9,000 a year. The grant provides
no more than half the student’s
total assistance.
Students who show financial need
and are enrolled full-time in col-
lege may apply for federal aid
through the College Work-Study
Program. The recipients are
placed in jobs on the campus in
various departments or with non-
profit community organizations.
Full-time summer employment is
sometimes provided.
For all those who missed it the
last few times around and for those
who simply want to see it again,
the Hollywood extravaganza Gone
With the Wind opens a week-long
run at National General’s Fox
Theatre.
STARRING Vivien Leigh and
Clarke Gable as Scarlet O’Hara and
Rhett Butler, the movie has become
a classic of American culture and
all-time favorite of millions of
American film-goers.
Elaborate scenery and costumes
are definitely in key with each oth-
er, making this film a pleasure to
watch. The acting, though perhaps
a bit melo-dramatic, is not dated
even decades later.
PHOTOGRAPHY is excellent
and remains with the viewer long
after the film is over. Many scenes
especially the burning of Atlanta,
are unforgettable.
Based on Margaret Mitchell’s
novel the same name, the movie is
quite long. Along with Love Story,
it is among the top tear-jerkers of
all time.
However, there is something for
everyone—hard, cold, war for the
realist, love for the romantic, as
well as many other elements.
Though a viewer may be a little
disappointed in Gone With the Wind
after hearing so many things about
it, it is, nevertheless, a show one
should see at least once ... or
twice...or three times...
Out Wheeling About? No, not yet, but the simulator is the last course before the
actual thing, behind-the-wheel-training starts. The simulated car and others just
like it are made by Dodge. They come with an optional standard or automatic. The
mistakes are recorded and counted by a computer connected to all of these “cars.”
The simulator will be here at Lubbock High until Nov. 27 when it will be moved to
another school.

Record Review
Fireball By
Deep Purple
Deep Purple’s third album is un-
der new management. The album is
Fireball, and it seems to be the
best of their three efforts.
THE RECORD opens up with
the title song “Fireball” in the
Deep Purple tradition with the
whole band being speed freaks, the
song is so fast and hard driving
you could blink an eye and miss a
verse. Other highlights of this al-
bum are “Strange Kind of Woman,”
“Fools,” and “No one came.”
With the personal of Ian Gillian,
vocalist, who sang the part of Jesus
in the recording of JC Superstar;
Ritchie Blackmore, lead guitar;
Jon Lorol, organ; Roger Glover,
bass; and Ian Paice, drums; there
can be no question of their talent.
Master of Reality by Black Sabbath
“Come on now, won’t you lis-
ten?” With these words, Black Sab-
bath goes into the million-seller
list. This is the best of any pre-
vious albums. The music drives
even harder than before. The album
starts with a tune called "Sweet
Leaf” and ends with a song called
“Children of the Grave” and “Into
the Void.” Some people say Black
Sabbath has no talent, but those
people who saw them in Amarillo,
report they were excellent.
