JANUARY DRAFT
WILL BE ‘HEAVY’
29 to Report December 18
for Preinduction
Examinations
Holt county will furnish a
group of inductees to the armed
forces on Thursday, December 13.
Number of men and names have
not yet been announced by the
selective service board hers.
The group, however, will be
made up from among those who
had nreinduction physical exam
inations in November, including:
Robert L. Retke, of Page; Rich
ard H. Heiss, of Page; Dewaine
H. Williamson, of Orchard; Don
Jesse Clark, of Ewing; Joseph J.
f Skudlar, of Burwell; Harold Ko
pejtka, of Inman; Donley E.
Moss, of Stuart; Robert G. Ful
ler, of Stuart; Wendell J. Babl,
of Emmet; Robert B. Blackmore,
of Atkinson; Richard W. Walton,
of O’Neill; Otto R. Bartos, of O’
Neill; Eldon and Elvin Dohnal, of
O’Neill.
Meanwhile, 29 men are being
ordered to report for preinduc
tion physicals on December 18.
From this group will be picked
the men to furnish the January
draft call, which is expected to
be "heavy."
Brig.-Gen. Guy N. Heninger, of
Lincoln state selective service di
rector, said he fears many Ne
braska youths are “placing them
selves in jeopardy” by not regis
\ tering for the draft.
This is the result of unwitting
action or an “I-think-I-can-get
away-with-it” attitude, Hennin
ger said.
o In either case, the general said,
failure to register is a violation of
law and makes the delinquents li
able to penalty.
He said he could make no es
timate of the number of delin
quents in Nebraska, but he said
local boards have standing in
structions to turn over the names
df suspected delinquents to fed
eral authorities for investigation.
Henninger reminded Nebras
ka youths that they must reg
ister for the draft within 5 days
G of their 18th birthday.
The selective service head also
* advised Nebraska college and
o 0 high school Svudents “not to be
alarmed” if they are first classi
fied into class 1-A and retained
in the class even though they are
full-time students.
Under selective service proce
dures, Henninger said, after reg
istration an 18-year-old student is
placed in the 1-A category. When
his number is reached, he will be
sent for physical examination.
But if he is ordered for induction
° and the student requests defer
ment on grounds he is a full-time
student, his induction is postpon
ed until the academic year in col
lege is completed or until he
graduates from high school or
reaches the age of 20 in high
school.
