PAGE IS • PLAINDEALER - FRIDAY. APRIL IS. 1«2 New Scholarship Deadlines Reductions in federal student financial aid and the economic recession are expected to yield a record number of applications for the Illinois State Scholarship commission's Monetary Award program for next fall. Because the ISSC expects to be appropriated about the same amount of money as was available this year, the commission is urging con­ tinuing college students to file before June 1, 1962, and new students no later than October 1,1982, for full-year grant consideration. The commission will shortly begin mailing letters to all 1961-82 ISSC applicants detailing the need for filing prior to June 1. But, in order to better plan funds allocation, the June 1 deadline will not be restricted only to prior applicants. The deadline is also applicable to any students enrolled in Illinois colleges during 1981-62 who wish to apply for 1982-83. The commission has also greatly simplified the ap­ plication process by eliminating its separate form and for the 1982-83 school year will "piggyback" the national forms. Students make ap­ plication to ISSC by checking "yes" to the "permission to SUNDAY APRIL 25 1-3 PM PEN HOUSE & registration COOPER KIDDIE COLLEGE NURSERY SCHOOL AND DAY CARE 6610 W.

The applications which have been approved are the Application for Federal Student Aid (AFSA), the Family Financial Statement (FFS), or the Financial Aid Form (FAF). Only one of the three forms is filed by the student. The college financial aid office deter­ mines which of the three forms should be Hied for its aid programs. Unlike federal programs of aid, the ISSC Monetary Award is limited to tuition and some fees up to a maximum of $1,950 per year. The program is based on financial institutions. Ap­ plications are currently available at college financial aid offices and high school counseling offices.

Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. has declared April 22 as Girl Scout Leader's day across the country. Girl Scout Leader's day is designed to recognize the women and men who serve as Girl Scout volunteer leaders, acting as positive role models who help girls to meet today's challenges and become tomorrow's com­ petent, self-assured women. Sybaquay Girl Scout council urges that on Girl Scout Leader's day, girls, their families, and their communities join the nation­ wide effort to recognize and honor Girl Scout leaders for their important work. This is the first nation­ wide salute to Girl Scout leaders during National Volunteers week. Girls throughout the United States will use the opportunity to show appreciation in the form of parades, parties, dedications, and special projects. A flag honoring the superb service of the nation's 300,000 Girl Scout leaders will be flown over the Capitol building April 22. Because of Sybaquay's 1,600 adult volunteers, Girl Scouting continues to grow. CHEVROLET 9 NEW IN McHENRY FOR Our First 90 days in McHenry have brought success and have been very satisfying.
