JiapRhhiqA,
Draft headquarters warns ...
Local boards to reclassify college men
with Mary Adelaide Hansen
Garbage men
apparently read the Awgwans
they find in the ash cans. At least
to DU "Dinky" Dunker's embar
rassment, last night, one such gar
bage man actually called at the
DU house to pick him up.
While the brothers were dining,
the middle aged workman broke
up the dinner with his "Hello boys.
I'm from the Lincoln Garbage
company. I was told to pick up
Dunker."
When one of Dunker's henchmen
then announced that the odor of a
garbage wagon was not as foul
as the humor of his brothers, the
freshmen took Dunker upstairs for
a sponging. But here at last he
proved he wasn't so "dinky" and
held his own. Poor Dunker!
Pin-relurnings
also rate space today, for Sigma
Chi Jack Moore is again wearing
that bit of Greek jewelry, and
Marian Lowry's Pi Thi arrow is
all alone on her sweater now.
Crib notes
collected among all the cokes and
cones bring to light several inter
esting items. For example, Alpha
Thi Mary Stephenson and Fiji
Bob Durrie now are going steady,
and rumor has it that Tri Delt
Midge Beasely may soon settle
down to giving Acacia Ned East
lack exclusive option on her dating
time. Tis also said that ATO
Tom Hood and Alpha Phi Janet
Westover are a good combination
which will bear watching.
Other tidbits
gleaned from a trip around the
Grill concern Gellatly and Galletly
though there's no connection ex
cept the pronunciation. Seems as
though Delt Dick Gellatly is go
ing steady with Tri Delt Mary
Helen Dietrich. Ail of which
crosses Dick off the "Eligible
Bachelor" list and makes him eat
those words, "Only once, never
again!" which he opined in a
DAILY feature story last fall.
Second story concerns Theta
Peggy Galletly who now is going
steady with her Omaha flame of
the past several years. In case
you want to know where this
leaves Phi Isl Curt Knudson, we
refer you to the Phi P.wi buffet
supper of last Sunday night, when
he and Peg found relations rather
strained. Curt promptly acquired
B. Jo Bylhsby, who, in turn, had
got separated from Fred Stiner.
Your guess is as good as mine!
Delta Gammas
missed the two gay souls who gen
erally are the life of any party
at their buffet supper last Sunday.
Sig Alph Bob Ludwick came down
with the mumps and left Gen Har
mon a "widow," as it were. He
who laughs last, and all that, how
ever, for Miss Harmon woke up
yesterday morning with a verra,
verra queer feeling in the region
of her own throat. Prognosis very
interesting!
Omaha
was the mecca this last week-end
for many of the campus kiddies.
The newly redecorated and very
elegant Blackstone was incentive
for several sight-seeing trips, and
Theta pledges celebrated their
emancipation from "health" day
and spring housecleaning at a big
open house at "Boney" Metcalf's.

WASHINGTON. National Se
lective Service headquarters
warned local draft boards tonight
that it will be necessary to re
classify all college students en
joying "blanket" deferment from
compulsory military service before
July 1.
In a memorandum to all state
draft directors. Brigadier General
Lewis B. Hershey, deputy director
of Selective Service, instructed
that "in reclassifying students, all
facts in the possession of the local
board at the time of the student's
classification in I-D or I-E should
again be given full consideration,
together with any evidence of
changed status which may have
occurred since classification.
Occupational deferment.
If a student is then found to
be "in training or preparation" for
any industry, business, agricul
tural pursuit, or governmental
service "necessary to the national
health, safety, or interest," he
should be iven occupational de
ferment, General Hershey said.
"In determining whether or not
a student is a necessary man with
in the provisions of the regula
tions," General Hershey pointed
out, "the "local board should give
due consideration to such factors
as the length of time which the
student has been pursuing the
course in question, his relative
progress and standing in such
course, and his relative chances

for employment or placement in
the activity for which he is pre
paring." Must give assurances.
"Contracts of employment" or
"other reasonable assurance that
the registrant will engage in an
essential activity" should be pre
sented by a student before occu
pational deferment is granted, the
memorandum declared.
Emphasizing the need for care
ful consideration of student de-'
fermerts by draft boards, General
Hershey told state directors:
"The proper classification of
students and others in training or
preparation constitutes use of the
major problems of the Selective
Service system. Marked concern
has been manifest by educators
and other interested persons with
respect to the status of students
after July 1, 3 341, particularly
those students enrolled in profes
sional, scientific, technical, or
highly specialized fields of en
deavor." "Students or other registrants
undergoing instruction may be de
ferred in Class II-A by the local
board where the activity for which
the registrant is in training or
preparation is one essential to the
national health, safety, or interest,
and the registrant is found to be
a necessary man," the memo
randum continued.
General Hershey said the period
of occupational deferment may not
exceed six months but that such
a deferment could be renewed
from time to time if the local
board finds that an extension is
justified under Selective Service
regulations.
He warned, however, that "in
applying these broad provisions
there must be no deviation from
the clear statutory prohibition
against group deferments," and
that local draft boards "must de
cide each individual case on its
particular facts."
Selective Service officials said
the policy letter would be sent to
all state directors for immediate
transmittal to the 6,500 local draft
boards.
