Howard Miller Elected Vice President Of IVC 2 Howard Miller, Veterans oordinator at McHenry ounty college, has been elected v,ice-president of the Illinois Veterans Congress (I.V.C.). Miller was elected at a recent meeting of the I.V.C. in Peoria. The state wide organization is comprised of Veteran Coordinators from throughout the state of Illinois. Miller also serves as treasurer of the National Association of Veterans Program Ad­ ministrators (NAVPA). When asked about the added prestige and responsibility, Miller stated, "At this time I don't know about the prestige, all I've seen so far is the responsibility. The I.V.C. has some very critical issues to contend with." To clarify his point, Miller added. "The Veterans Administration and its state approval agency, the Department of Veteran Affairs, have regulated the way in which schools will administer the training of veterans. There has been little or no input from the institutions that are required by law to follow the guidelines established by the VA At times these regulations are almost impossible to recreate and the concept of academic freedom is severely being tested." Since the I.V.C. is made up of coordinators who must work with these guidelines, Miller believes they should be consulted on these matters. "The second bone of con­ tention that became apparent to me at the meeting was a continuation of a nation wide phenomenon," continued Miller. "There exists today at strained relationship between the established Veteran Organizations and the younger Vietnam Era veterans. The older more established group is recognized by Congress as the voice of all veterans. The younger vets generally tend to disagree with that outlook. The I V.C. wants to form a closer working relationship with all veterans organizations so that the entire spectrum of veterans affairs can be effectively dealt with." "Another crucial stand taken by the I.V.C. deals with the possible change in the requirements for the Illinois Military Scholarships," con­ cluded Miller. "The Scholar­ ship in its present form enables any veteran who was an Illinois resident at the time he entered the service, served at least one year of active duty, and returned to the State within six months of his-her separation to be entitled to having the in- district tuition and most fees YOUR WEEK AHEAD By damis ARIES Mar. 21-Apr. 19 TAURUS Apr. 20-May 20 GEMINI May 21-June20 MOONCHILD June21-July22 LEO July 23-Aug. 22 VIRGO Aug. 23-Sept. 22 LIBRA Sept. 23-Oct. 22 SCORPIO Oct. 23-Nov.21 SAGITTARIUS Nov. 22-I)ec. 21 CAPRICORN Dec. 22-Jan. 19 AQUARIUS Jan. 20-Feb. 18 PISCES Feb. 19-Mar. 20 Forecast Period: October 3 to October 9 Entertainment in the home of organizations and friends could create a greathdeal of family involvement Uranus in Scorpio opposes your sun.

Legislation has been proposed in the Illinois Legislature to place this Scholarship on a needs only basis, similar to the Basic Education Opportunity Grant. The I.V.C. considers this revision as a serious im­ pairment on the veterans capabilities in attending school. When we enlisted or were drafted into the service, our service was not contingent on a needs basis, if it were, only the rich would be eligible to serve. The Scholarship given as a means to help us make up for the time we lost, should not be placed on such a contingency. We believe the Scholarship should remain as it presently reads." CONFERENCE ON HANDICAPPED Dr. Silas P. Singh, state director of the Illinois White House conference activities, announced this week that handicapped individuals, parents of handicapped children, and providers of services to the handicapped are invited to volunteer as delegates to the White House Conference on Handicapped Individuals scheduled for next May in Washington, D.C.
