Decisions in the five cases are tentatively set to be made today, before the expiration of Phillips' term, according to ABOC Chairman Quintin J. Cristy of Shrewsbury. Cristy described as "not at all unusual" the bypassing of local boards. "This is not a new procedure," Cristy told The Union by telephone from his Worcester business office. "We've.

done this all over the state. We do it whenever we can find the time for it. More Effective think it's much more effective and we find that these fellows (the alleged violators) pay a lot more attention when they're put to the expense and inconvenience of coming to Boston for a hearing instead of conveniently going to the local licensing boards, where they're among friends, so to Cristy acknowledged that the procedure cuts in half the accused violators' chances of not guilty findings in their cases.

Civil Rights Fund Drive Aimed at City Action Unitarian-Universalist les in the Connecticut Valley will be asked this spring to join "The 25-cent Club for Freedom" to raise funds for "more effective civil rights activity Springfield, a spokesman said Monday. Committee Organized An ad hoc fund raising committee was organized Sunday at First Unitarian Universalist Church of this city to underwrite Uplift, the successor to last summer's Council of Organizations for Civil Rights. Sunday's action follows a recent vote by the board of tors of the Connecticut Valley District of ists to support Uplift.

Officers Elected Other officers elected were Mrs. William Barse, secretary, and James Mason, chairman of the speakers' subcommittee.

The fund committee will seek to enlist Unitarian-Universalists in the Connecticut Valley District's 32 churches join "The 25- cent club," pledging themselves to donate 25 cents per week to Uplift.

Dr. Korkosz Says While New Yorkers choke what is reportedly the world's dirtiest air, Springfield citizens can take solace in the fact the air here is still relatively clean. According to Dr.

Frank D. Korkosz of the Springfield Museum of Natural History, the air in this area is no where near as dirty as New York air which most recently was blamed for corrosion of statues, sculptures and major buildings in the city. Korkosz noted that while the sulphur dioxide content of Springfield air is lower than that in New York, there is still a very natural and constant erosion of man-made and natural objects. Nitrogen from the air which is absorbed by rain drops forming a weak solution of nitric acid this, of course, is good for the soil but does etch In laddition to the etching efmetals. fect of nitric acid buildings here are constantly attacked by normal weatherings and oxidation.

Nevertheless, "our air. up here is pretty good," said Korkosz. He noted that the area a surrounding the city has almost "pure" air. The granite columns of the museum which date back to 1899 are a good example of how little damage to buildings air has caused. The columns are practically as good as new, said Korkosz.

The Smith Museum and City Library are also reported in good shape. As for statues and monuments in the area, the air has caused little damage. The patina on bronze statues in the area is natural, said Korkosz, and "nice to look at." In many, surrounding, areas gravestones sandstone, limestone, granite, and marble dating back several hundred years are still legible. This is actually quite remarkable considering the weathering such objects undergo during a New England winter, Dr. Korkosz said.

State Veterans To Benefit by GI Bill Veterans Service Director Matthew 0. Kulungian said Monday the Veterans Administration expects 14,200 veterans in Massachusetts to take advantage of the educational. provisions of the Should Take Tests Kulungian said veterans planning to enter college this fall under the bill should arrange immediately for College Board Admission tests. He said the exams will be given at schools and academies only on May 7 and July 9 for those seeking admission next fall. Registration must be made the May exam before April 9 to avoid a penalty fee.

Otherwise, the final date is April 23. Kulungian said veterans need not rush to file for benefit applications with the VA, because no educational assistance will be available under the new bill before June 1. He said later this month, the VA will have applications and full information on the education assistance at all of its offices and admission offices in most approved schools. Also, veterans will have enough time to select courses and make applications without losing class time or VA payments. Kulungian said the program is open to all veterans who served at least 180 days on active duty after Feb.

1, 1955 and were either honorably discharged or released for a servdisability. Terns of Bill Under the bill, veterans will get one month of education for each month or fraction of a month that they were on active duty. Courses may be taken at vocational, correspondence and high schools as well as colleges and universities. The VA will pay $100 a with month in school dependents. $125 a month with dependent and $150 a month wit! more than one dependent.

Proportionate rates are paid for par(-time courses and it makes no difference if the veteran has another income. The bill does not cover the school expenses of veterans who have already been to school at their own expense and veterans who havereceived education assistance from previous bills will have to deduct that training from their present eligibility. Other benefits of the GI Bill include home and farm loans. The same veterans eligible for education assistance are eligible for the property loans up to 20 years after their discharges. Guarantee Home Loans For post Korean war veterans.

the VA will guarantee A home loan from a private lender up to $7500 or 60 per cent of the loan, whichever is less. The VA will guarantee farm loans up to $4000 or 50 per cent of the loan and the amount lessens for a non-real estate farm loan. The guarantee is intended to be in lieu of a downpayment, by the veteran to reduce the downpayment which the lender would normally require. Loans can be made for buying a home, making alterations, repairs or improvements in home already owned and occupied, buying farms, farm supplies and equipment, farm capital or to refinance delinquent indebtedness on a veteran's property. Business loans are guaranteed by the VA.

Genasci spoke of a recent experiment conducted with children at play where cameras recorded their actions. It was discovered that those children with a tendency towards obesity actually exercised far less than the others. "All were involved in group play but the overweight children performed from 70 to 90 per cent less than normal children. If the ball went out of bounds, for example, only those fulfilling a activity cycle would dash off to retrieve the ball," he said. In citing the "perfect diet" Dr.

Genasci said any diet which contained a balance of the 50. recognized nutrients was the answer. He. compared the intake of vitamins with stamps on a letter. "If you put more stamps on a letter than necessary it won't go any faster.

A survey among 3500 high seniors showed that teenage girls were the most poorly nourished group.
