Spiller, Green wood Social Security field re presentative, said. He explained that under Med icare law an individual who did not enroll at age 65, may en roll for this supplementary med ical insurance (that helps pay doctor bills and certain other medical bills) during an enroll ment period that begins no lat er than 3 years after the close of the period in which he had his first opportunity to sign up. Under this rule March is the last month for people who were born “after October 1, 1901 and before October 2, 1902” to sign up for this protection. He said moreover that any one who has enrolled and later dropped out may re-enroll just once; and the re-enrollment is to take place within 3 months after the month the first en rollment period ended. “Under this rule March is the last chance for anyone who had this coverage but let it ‘lapse’ in 1967,” he said. He explained further that in dividuals who were born after October 1, 1902 and have never enrolled for this doctor bill in surance—or who had the cover age but dropped it in 1968 and have not re-enrolled—should sign up before March 31. While they may have one more sign up chance next year, should they wait and sign up then they would not have the protection until July 1971. “The regular premium cost for this voluntary medical in surance under Medicare will be $5.30 starting in July. However, late signer-uppers must pay 10 percent more for each full year they could have enrolled but failed to do so. Consequently anyone who waits until next year to enroll will have to pay premiums permanently higher by 10 percent than if they had enrolled this month,” he said. ‘‘So anyone who believes he may be eligible now for this valuable protection should con tact the Social Seucrity Office before March 31,” Mr. Spiller concluded. VICAR CONDUCTS CHAPEL SERVICE The chapel services at the Newberry Academy last Friday morning were conductd by the Rev. Frederick C. Byrd, Vicar of St. Lukes Episcopal Church. He taught the students a simple song to sing in Hebrew and then he used it for the theme of his remarks. He explained how young people must think about God, live His way and ask for His blessings. With very graphic illustrations he pointed cut how we must find our greatest joy only in following God. The Board of Directors of the Academy have now completed their plans to begin construct ion of the first building unit on Smith Road. The tenth grade will be added next year and the seventh through the tenth grade will be housed there. The Academy is now receiving applications for next session. In dications now are that a num ber will have to be placed on a waiting list since some of the classes will be filled to capa city.
