made their debut to radio fans of
this area Saturday as dramatic
actors.

WUSC Radio ,Theater, presented
an original drama over WIS.
The play, "The Valley of the
Shadow," was written by Clyde
Thomas of Rock Hill, a member
of the theater group, and was di
rected by Prof. L. R. Wever of the
university faculty, WUSC ad
viser.

Turner Warns
Veterans Risk
Lapse Of NSL[
A number of veterans run the
risk each month of allowing their
National Service Life Insurance to
lapse because they fail to take a
second look before mailing their
premium payments, Edward B.
Turner, manager of the South
Carolina regional office of the Vet
erans Administration, said today
Each month, VA district offices
receive checks. money orders, and
postal notes that cannot be cash
ed, although they were intended
to pay NSLI premiums. Many
checks are not signed. Others are
made payable to companies and
organizations.; which have no con
nection with the Veterans Admin
istration.
The Veterans Administration at
tempts to clear up such mistakes
immediately, by writing to the vet
eran within 24 hours. But his pre
mium cannot be marked "paid"
until he sends back a cashable pay
ment.
If the veteran who forgets to
sign his check is near the end o
his 31 day grace period, there is
particuiar danger that his insur
ance may lapse. Turner said.
Cheeks, money orders or postal
notes should be made payable to
the treasurer of the United States.
If, for any reason, the veteran
does not have a VA premium en
velope and does not know his in
surance number, he should make
certain his payment is accom
panied by his full name, address
and armed forces serial number.
