married men will be taken
as last choice for the draft.
According to Lancaster
County Court, marriages have
not been skyrocketing after
the order was announced.
There have been, bow
ever, more marriages this
year than last, Men are still
more willing to risk the
chance 'of being drafted than
their freedom.
Mrs. Fern Brown, who
teaches a marriage course
here at the University, ex
pressed her faith in human
ity in that she thought young
men would not run out and
get married just to beat the

This deficit occurrs because
every year about one third

However in three years
there are more vacancies than
are filled by re-enlistments

have to be raised.

The Senate passed the bill
after rejecting, 54 to 35, a civ

would have authorized con
