They are William Clark Foster of 172 Dahlia Street, and Charles Ellis Russell, 2336 Wantland Street. Under the program, all tuition fees for four years of college are paid. In addition, they receive books and uniforms, plus $50 a month during their college work. The two were among a group of 44 young men from seven states named by Capt. R. W. Shafer, commander of the naval program at OSC. Students receiving the appoint ments were picked from top scor ers in a nationwide written ex amination by state selection com mittees. They must also pass a rigid physical examination. More than 30.01X1 young men took the test last fall and approximately 2,000 were selected for the col lege appointments. Are You A Careful Driver?
