Korean War Veterans Slow to Join Colleges on GI Bill
GI College enrollment shows Korean War veterans under 10 percent, far below World War II cohorts. Reasons include recall to service, deferments, graduate work avoidance, and better postwar work prospects. A new monthly subsistence plan may deter tuition payments, leaving campuses short of expected veteran enrollees. Two Army Reserve corporals promoted in Frederick Maryland. Benefit dance for Polio Fund set in Sykesville with multiple civic sponsors. Boxing match in Saginaw Detroit ends in a draw.
