Motor Vehicle Chapter 86
Sponsors Tuberculine Tests
Do you have a high school diploma?
How many times have you seen an oppor
tunity for advancement slip past because
you couldn’t qualify for the educational
requirements, even though you could have
handled the new assignment standing on
your head?
Your local school district can answer
your questions about Certificates of
Equivalency, as these diplomas are known,
probably over the phone. The steps are
simple. You take a battery of tests which
indicate what you’ve learned during the
course of your life since leaving School,
and all you have to be is 21 years old.
There are study guides and night clas
ses for those who wish to review the
various subjects, but there are many who
could take it with a minimum preparation.
If you think there is a “ next time,”
call your local school district for com
plete details about a possible Certificate
of Equivalency. It may be your passport
to better things.
Motor Vehicle Chapter No. 86 on June
19 sponsored a film program by the Salem
Tuberculosis and Health Association which
informed department personnel about tu
berculosis and offered a free skin patch
test to anyone wishing it.
Jack D. Morton, Registrar of Oregon
College of Education, has been appointed
chairman of the OSEA Scholarship Com
mittee. He fills the vacancy left by Dallas
Norton who left OSU for an appointment
in Arizona.
In his letter of acceptance to Public
Relations Chairman Bob Simon, Norton
said that the OSEA scholarship and grants-
in-aid program has made a “ substantial
contribution” to state employees through
out Oregon. He has served on the scholar
ship committee for several years.
Any test showing a positive reaction
would result in the person’s being re
ferred to a local hospital for X-Rays.
The Chapter informed those interested
that it would bear the cost of any X-Ray
checkup, which is a standard $1.00.
Special notices were sent to division
heads of the Department of Motor Vehi
cles by the personnel office asking that
their personnel be permitted to attend at
forty minute intervals throughout the
morning.
An interesting sidelight on this brain
child of Chapter 86’s Public Relations
Representative Peggy Trott is that the
service resulted in the chapter’s acquir
ing 20 new members. It shows how even
the most public spirited gestures have un
foreseen results.
O f prime importance to- a ll state eriiployees, and
OSEA members in particular, is the new insurance
program offered jo intly by the Association and
Standard Insurance Company of Portland. OSEA
President Chalmers Jones, le ft, and AH Thompson
of Standard'¿’Salem office watch Insurance Direc
tor Jack Schoonover chart a couple of facts. The
factsare these. OS EA's 7,000 insurance subscribers
have $26,000,000 worth o f insurance in force with'
Standard, offering them new and wider protection.
Standard Insurance officials inform us that this is
the largest group I ife insurance pol icy underwritten
in Oregon.
