Chaffee High School students Chip Bollinger and Brian Payne have been named commended students in the 1995 National Merit Scholarship Program.
About 35,000 commended students throughout the nation are being honored for their performance.
They placed among the top 5 percent of more than a million students who entered the 1995 Merit Program by taking the 1993 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test.
The test scores of commended students are slightly below the level required to continue in the competition for Merit Scholarships to be awarded in 1995.
