Peace Corps to Hold Tests Here Saturday

The third round of Peace Corps examinations will be held this Saturday in Lowell Lecture Hall, beginning at 8:30 in the morning. The exams will last for six hours, with an hour out for lunch.

Candidates for the Peace Corps must choose between two types of examinations. One is designed for men and women who want to be considered for positions as secondary-school or college teachers. These candidates must have a bachelor's degree but need not be accredited teachers.

The alternate examination is for all other persons who want to serve in the Peace Corps. Test results, background, special skills, and character references will be considered in making final selections from among these candidates.

For the October tests, the Peace Corps hopes to attract a large number of Americans from agricultural and industrial molds.
