Window panes! Y'es, sixty-five of them! Because o f a severe hailstorm last summer, and difficulty in re placing windows damaged at that time, last week's chilly days, in some o f the classrooms, has brought us a very realistic re minder o f the season just ap proaching.

After that, the pitcher blew up and was pulled in the second inning. Jefferson put in their first baseman, Tal bott, for pitcher, who handled the ball well, but allowed too many hits.

She reported that the total reg istered here during the three- week period was 3,143. However, that included three youths who registered hut didn’ t have to because they were over age and ten who were late and were registered early this week. Action in the cases of two draft evaders will await a meeting sometime this week of the three- man draft board. They are Don ald J. Stoops, 24, near Yellow Springs, and David Orcutt, 25, Yellow Springs, both of whom claim they would be exempt be cause they are veterans but are opposed to peacetime _ selective service in principal. Neither reg istered although Informed of the possible $10,000 fine and five- year prison term. Any policy on draft evasion or failure to register sent to local boards will probably come from, national draft headquarters, a spokesman for selective service, said In Columbus. Enforcement of the penal pro visions of the law is a part of the U. S. district attorney’s duties and individual cases as they come to the draft headquarters’- -at-, tention will be turned over to that office, it was said. As for failure to register, most of these violations are through misinformation or ignorance of the law, it was explained. Dur ing the wartime draft many of the eligibles picked up* by the FBI for failure Jo register were allowed to do so and no further penalty was imposed upon prom ise of good behavior. No local draft boards have been ordered to refuse registration to men who failed to register be fore the Sept. 18 deadline set in the presidential proclamation. When the local hoard meets its biggest job .will be to start clas sification of men to prepare for pre-induction physical examina tion call o f eight for October and an .actual draft call of four in November. First group of questionnaires, mailed out Sept. 15, should he hack in the board’s -hands by Saturday—end o f the ten-day limit—and the classification of these youths, most likely draftees, will follow. Order numbers for induction will be by age, the oldest first. Key to order numbers may be explained by this example: John Doe, 25 years old, is registered with the local board, which is No. 47, and a number—say 33—is assigned to the state o f Ohio. Doe' is fifth oldest man register ed. His number would be: 33-47- 25-5. The state’s number, his age and his own order in age make up the figure. Of the 3,143 registered here, Mrs. Hurley said 577 were non residents and their cards would he sent to other boards having jurisdiction over their homes of record. To illustrate how some men al ready have become exempt, the board pointed to the cases of John Leroy Andrews, Cedarville; Warren Harding Smith, Xenia, and Edmond C. Turner, Yellow Springs. All, who were draft- exempt because of marriage and service in the war, became 26 on Monday— first day the board swung into operation after the registcration— and are now “ un touchables” so far as selective service is concerned. Eighteen-year-olds,. however, are replenishing the draft pool, these youths complying with the federal law compelling them to sign up on their 18th birthday. RECEIVE WORD Mrs. C. E .'
