You’ll never know
bow much good
you can do
until you do it*
Felipe Maghirann knows how much good he
can do He does it every week as a volunteer at a
home for mentally retarded children
Lawyer Barry Klickstein knows how much
good he can do. He does it by volunteering to help
poor people win their rights in court.
Volunteer Candy Richards knows how much
good she can do. She’s doing it for the children at a
neighborhood day care center.
You can help people.
In fact, there’s a crying need for you. Your talents. Your training. Your
concerns. They can make you priceless as a volunteer in your community.
Take a moment to think of all that can be done. For children. The
environment. Sick people. Old people. People who just need someone
behind them.
Then take another moment to think of what you can do. Perhaps by
applying your job skills or personal interests to voluntary action.
There are probably several organizations hard at work in your town
doing things you’d be proud to be part of. Well put you in touch with them.
Join one. Or, if you see the need, start a new one.
If you can spare even a few hours a week, call your local Voluntary
Action Center. Or write:
“Volunteer,” Washington, D.C._20013. It’ll do you good to
see how much good you can do.

was assassinated while president and
another while running for president,
said members of his family will not
have a veto over his decision.
“No, they won’t,” he said in re
sponse to a question. “And they’ve
indicated were I to make a judgment
to run that they would support me.” ,
Kennedy was interviewed on
“Washington Straight Talk,” a na
tional public affairs broadcasting
program, by Paul Duke.
“Which way are you leaning at this
moment?” Kennedy was asked.
“If I was asked today. I’d just run:
for re-election to the Senate,” he re
plied.
“Would you, deep down, like to
be President?”
“Yes.”
Kennedy said the presidency pro
vides the opportunity most effec
tively “to bring about the kind ol
changes that I think are important for
the country.”
Duke mentioned the Chappa-
quiddick incident in which Mary Jo
Kopechne drowned, and also told
Kennedy that the polls show “a sub
stantial number of Americans do not
really trust you, or they don’t have a
very high regard for your character
or your integrity.”
“Do you feel that you could pro
vide the country with moral leader
ship in the wake of Watergate?”
Kennedy was asked.
“Well, I wouldn’t run if I didn’t,”
he replied. “But I’m completely
satisfied that if I decided to run, I
think I could—I could, yes.”
In talking about why he’d like to
be President and what he sees as the
principal need of the country today,
Kennedy said there has to be “a re
storation in the American people of a
feeling that they can deal with the
problems we re facing here at
home.”
“I think, generally, there’s a feel
ing of frustration, that government is
not responsive, and this sense of re
storation has to be re-established,”
he said.

There’s no easy way for Charlie Nelson to become Dr. Nelson.
But there is a way to make it somewhat easier.
Our way. The Armed Forces Health Professions
Scholarship Program. It won’t soften the demands
of your professors, or those you make upon yourself
—but it may free you from those financial problems
which, understandably, can put a crimp in your
concentration.
If you qualify, our scholarship program will cover
the costs of your medical education. More, you’ll
receive a good monthly allowance all through your
schooling.
But what happens after you graduate?
Then, as a health care officer in the military
branch of your choice you enter a professional
environment that is challenging, stimulating and
satisfying.
An environment which keeps you in contact with
practically all medical specialties. Which gives you
the time to observe and learn before you decide on
your specialty. Which may present the opportunity
to train in that specialty. And to practice it.
You may also find some of the most advanced
medical achievements happening right where you
work. Like at the Brooke Army Medical Center in
San Antonio, Texas, long noted for its Burn Treat
ment Center. Or the home of Flight Medicine, the
famed Aerospace Medical Division, also in San
Antonio. Or the National Naval Medical Center in
Bethesda, Maryland, recognized worldwide for its
work in Medical Research.
And if you’ve read this far, you may be interested
in the details. Just send in the coupon and we’ll
supply them.
