Gospel group tours Iceland
Story and photo
The internationally known Swedish
gospel singing group, the Samuelsons,
appeared at the USO here Saturday during
their recent trip to Iceland.
The four brothers, Kjell, Olle, Rolf
and Jard, sang for and shared their ex-
periences with about 100 people in the
quickly planned special performance here
on the base.
During their six-day stay here in
Iceland, the Samuelsons were able to
bring their message in song to thousands
of people, young and old. Besides here
on base, they appeared in Njardvik and
at the Filadelfia Church in Reykjavik.
Their youthful style and their obvi-
ous sincerity have made them popular
with audiences of all ages all over the
world. Their love of life and their
love of God comes out in every word in
every song.
The Samuelsons started singing gospel
music full time in 1971. Since then,
they've toured such countries as Ger-
by J02 Judy Rehders
many, Holland, England, Canada and the
United States. In the United States,
they have toured almost every state, in-
cluding Hawaii, and have appeared on
several national TV programs.
During two months every summer, the
Samuelsons manage their own campground
on Oland, an island in the Baltic Sea
and one of the most popular resort areas
in Scandinavia. In nightly gospel ser-
vices at the camp, this summer alone,
they sang for over 100,000 people in
eight weeks.
The Samuelsons left here Monday morn-
ing to return to Sweden to prepare for
their upcoming tour of Sweden, Norway
and Finland. Next spring, they'll re-
turn to the United States, where they'll
continue to share their gospel music and
their love of God. Their purpose is
stated in one of their songs: "We have
good news to bring and that is why we
sing—all the joy with you we like to
share."
Mahan Messenger
The teachers of A.T. Mahan School
will be instructed about the uses of
video tape recorders next week. Two ed-
ucational specialists from the States
will be visiting the school. With the
aid of the recorders, the students will
be able to produce and edit their own
films under the supervision of their
teachers. There will be a half day of
school for all students so that teachers
may familiarize themselves with the
equipment and receive special instruction
from these experts. The elementary stu-
dents will be dismissed at noon on Tues-
day and the upper school students will
be dismissed at noon on Thursday.
The senior class has chosen a new
type of leadership for their business
this year. They have a steering commit-
tee of three students. This committee
consists of Greg Freeburn, Sheryl
Rowland, and Tekla Skowronski. Tekla
will act as chairperson. These people
will be in charge of supervising class
activities and writing the agenda.
The junior class has elected new of-
ficers. They are Treasurer Bill Bohanan,
Secretary Margaret Martinez, Vice Presi-
dent Janie Skowronski and President Brad
Morse.
The Student Government has completed
the annual survey to find the main in-
terests of the students. The items se-
lected as the top goals for Student Gov-
ernment this year are, in descending or-
der: Monthly Dances, Juke Box, Music in
the halls during class breaks, Livening
the exterior of the school, Pool Par-
ties, Slave Sale, Talent Show, and a
Winter Costume Ball.
CHAMPUS deadline approaches
Beneficiaries of the Civilian Health
and Medical Program of the Uniformed
Services (CHAMPUS) should be aware that
December 31, 1975 is the deadline for
filing claims for medical care services
and supplies provided during 1974 (Jan.
1-Dec. 31).
CHAMPUS officials are concerned that
many beneficiaries may not know about
the deadline. They point out that a
claim for services or supplies received
during 1974 will not be considered if
filed after the last day of 1975.
A similar deadline will be in effect
in the future. It will be the last day
Studs or chains required
Icelandic law requires that something
more than regular tires be used when
driving on ice and snow. The vehicle
owner is given several options as to
what may be used.
The following options apply to all
passenger vehicles driven in adverse
weather conditions:
a. Non-studded snow tires on all
wheels.
b. Studded snow tires on all wheels.
c. Chains on all wheels.
d. Studded tires on the wheels of one
axel and chains on the wheels of the
other axle.
If you have any questions, call the
Legal Office at extension 7900 or 7901.
of the calendar year following the cal-
endar year in which the services and
supplies are received. For example,
claims for services and supplies re-
ceived during 1975 (Jan. 1-Dec. 31) will
have to be sent in no later than Decem-
ber 31, 1976.
Although CHAMPUS beneficiaries have
until the end of this year to file
claims for services and supplies pro-
vided during 1974, they are advised not
to wait until then to get them in.
"If you delay preparing and filing a
claim until the last minute, something
unexpected might happen to prevent you
from getting it in the mail in time to
be considered for payment," one CHAMPUS
official points out.
A CHAMPUS beneficiary who has re-
ceived services or supplies during 1974
from a civilian source who has agreed to
submit a claim directly to CHAMPUS
should check with that source if he is
not sure that a claim has been submit-
ted. The civilian source should be re-
minded about the December 31, 1975 dead-
line, and if he cannot file the claim by
that date, the beneficiary should make
arrangements to file it himself.
