How can I become one of the National Merit Scholarship SAT finalists? Ask Roberta Amundson, who is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Dale Amundson of Thorp.

Roberta has qualified as a finalist in this contest. She will compete for one of about 3100 Merit Scholarships to be awarded this spring.

NMSC will release the names of Merit Scholarship winners in 1974 through the news media in three public announcements: winners of standard four-year Merit Scholarships financed primarily by corporations and business will be announced on April 11; the winners of one-time National Merit $1,000 scholarships will be named on April 25, and the announcement of college sponsored four-year Merit Scholarship winners will occur on May 2.
