New Year Brings
Higher Pay Taxes
Washington Your pay enve-
lope will be thinner after Jan. 1.
The reason is an increase in
Social Security taxes says the
Chamber of Commerce of the
United States.
If you earn $6600 or more a
year your tax will jump 59 per
cent or $103; you will pay $277.20.
If you earn less the tax jump will
be less.
The tax increase was enacted in
the last session of Congress con-
comitant with Medicare and leg-
islation raising Social Security
benefits.
Under the law the tax will rise
periodically to a top of $372.90
in 1987.
However if history holds true
Congress will add more benefits
to Social Security and by 1987
the top tax might be nearer $1000
a year.
This prospect is not as far-
fetched as it might seem. The
AFL-CIO convention at San
Francisco this month called for
a doubling of Social Security
taxes to help pay for a proposed
50 per cent increase in benefits.
has. really been busy this year.
But best of all out of five schools
in province 23 Theta Lambda re-
ceived the Best Chapter Award
for 1964-65.
For a little history there are
33 provinces in the United States.
The five schools in this province
are Hardin-Simmnns University
Wayland Baptist College in
Plainview Midwestern University
in Wichita Falls West Texas
State University in Canyon and
Texas Tech in Lubbock. It was
in Lubbock that the presentation
was made at the province workshop.
The award was presented by
retiring province governor Andy
Patterson of the H-SU music
iacuity. rne new province gov-
ernor in Carl Best also on the
H-SU music faculty. He is also
sponsor of H-SU's chapter.
The chapter chorus performed
as did the Trombone Quartet. The
quartet played a composition by
Patterson. Members of the quar-
tet are Wesley Black Dick Sny-
der Larry Hoepfinger H-SU
music faculty and G. B. Lane
of the ACC music faculty.
"This is the biggest step in off-
duty education since under-gradu-ate
courses began in the Spring
of 1957" stated Fred McGinn
Dyess Air Force Base Education
Officer.
"Inaugurating this program by
Hardin -Simmons University
marks a new phase of service to
this area" said Dr. Clyde T. Jet-
ton Graduate Dean.
Upon being approached by
Dyess Air Force Base officials
arrangements have been made by
H-SU to offer graduate courses at
night on the base.
Because the Air Force has a
considerable number of graduate
students wno are interested in
furthering their educations the
U. S. A. F. wants to help them
so they can benefit in fields re-
lated to duty assignments. The
classes offered are to be limited
to those courses leading to the
Master of Arts Degree with a
major in Economics.
Alert duty makes it difficult for
base personnel to attend regular
classes on campus said McGinn.
For this reason the Hardin-Sim
mons University campus has been
extended to the base.
Students seeking graduate
credit must meet all of the ad-
mission requirements for gradu-
ate students. Arrangements have
been completed by McGinn and
Dr. Hoyt Ford for applicants to
the Graduate Program to take the
Miller Analogies Test. Applica-
tion forms have been supplied to
the Base Education Office build-
ing 8202. All forms and blanks
needed may be picked up there.
Only one copy of the original col-
lege transcript need be submitted.
Mechanically reproduced copy
must accompany the original.
All classes taught at Dyess will
have the same requirements and
standards of those taught on cam-
pus. The same credit will be
given upon successful completion
of the course. Credit will be ap-
plicable to the appropriate degree.
Tuition and fees will be the
same as those charged other stu
dents and the same policies gov-
erning refunds will apply.
All facilities will be provided
by the base.
Dr. Jetton explained that this
new education program is not in
competition with McMurry Col-
lege's undergraduate program at
Dyess.
The courses to be taught are
Economics 403 Comparative Eco-
nomic Systems offered on Thurs-
day nights by C. E. Gatlin and
Business Administration 493D
Industrial Managements taught
on Tuesday night by Cecil Norris.
Registration for these classes
will be at the usual night regis-
tration supplemented by a two-
hour period on the afternoon of
Jan. 28 to accommodate those stu
dents whose military duties will
prohibit registration at the usual
time.
According to Professor R. A.
Hancock the "response has been
very gratifying." The enrollment
may reach 50 to 60 officers and
airmen.
The esteem in which Hardin-
Simmons is held is seen in the
fact that the University was ap-
proached by Dyess officials. This
new arrangement is a service
to Dyess Air Force Base personnel
which extends the program of
graduate studies at H-SU accord-
ing to Dr. Jetton.
Spring Enrollment
To Top Last Year
The anticipated enrollment for
the Spring semester is expected
to be between 1700 and 1725
according to Dr. W. O. Beazley
director of admissions.
In comparison to the expected
enrollment last Spring's enroll-
ment numbered 1526. The cur-
rent number of students is 1792.
This expected enrollment is not
conclusive however for the of-
fices of the registrar and admis-
sions has no way of telling how
many students will transfer from
here in the next semester.
A breakdown of the new stu
dents shows that the larger per-
centage are transfer students
from. other colleges and universities.
Rancheros Have
Spanish Holiday
The Los Rancheros observed
the Spanish Twelfth Night Party
the 6th of January. The club met
in the home of Dr. Levett for this
annual affair.
"This is an annual Spanish
celebration commemorating the
coming of the Kings to the infant
Jesus. Since the Kings brought
gifts the Spanish people celebrate
this day as the traditional time
of giving gifts. Christmas is
strictly a religious celebration in
the Spanish countries except for
foreign influences that have in-
tervened" explained Dr. Levett
concerning the custom.
