RAISE FUND FOR
CHAUTAUQUA
YESTERDAY
TICKET SALE LAST DAY
WAS A RECORD BREAKER
Large Crowd Greets Opening of
Program at High School
Grounds Last Night.

Nogales raised the entire
amount of the Chautauqua
guarantee fund of 81, ,750 by the
sale of tickets, selling more than
the required number. This was
accomplished by some hard
work yesterday, as the guaran-
tee was little more than half
made up on Tuesday evening.
"There is no discounting No
gales ability to do things when
she starts out to do them," said
Mr.. F. E. Lukens, Chautauqua
representative, last evening, in
speaking of this feat of the
Chautauqua workers.
Had the sum not been raised
by opening time last evening,
the 83 signers of the guarantee
pledge would have been COM
Ipelled to make good the short
ge, as the cash receipts at the
gate all 90 to the Chautau0ua
organization.
The program last evening was
enjoyed by a large crowd, and
the Old Soldier Fiddlers were
especially appreciated, the old
soldiers in the audience being
carried back to Civil War days
by the rendition of the familiar
songs of that memorable time.
Indications are excellent for a
profitable and enjoyable week
for the Chautauqua. Despite
the threatening weather of the
earlier part of Thursday, last
evening the weather conditions
were satisfactory, and with
such sterling attractions as the
program offers daily, Nogales
will give itself up to attending
the daily meetings.

DEFERRED CLASS
DRAFT MEN MAY
BE CALLED
MEN OF CLASS / ARE
NEARLY ALL CALLED
Lecal Draft Board Asks Wash
ington for Instructions Re-
garding May Quota.

O8utd OIUL COuilty . hoo "
Class 1 men on the registration
list is almost exhausted, and in
dications are that to meet the
draft calls of May, men will
have to be called from Classes
3 and 4.
There are eighteen men left
in Class 1 at the present time,
snh eight of that number will go
TO training camp on May 10, un-
der an April call. That will leave
but ten on the list, and Wash
ington dispatches state that the
May calls will require twice the
number asked for in April.
County Recorder ARGUS Red
doch Of the local draft board has
written to the authorities at
Washington who are in charge
of the draft asking them for in
structions. While it appears
plain that the draft calls of
May will have to be met by call
ing men of Glasses 2 and 3, the
local board does not desire to
take such action without spe-
cific directions to that effect
from the Washington authoii-
ties.
Class 2 includes men who
have wives who are either earn
ing their own living or are ca
pable of self support. Class 3
includes men who have depend
ent parents.
"Of course we cannot tell just
when we would be compelled to
resort to calling out men of the
deferred classification" said
Mr.. Reddoch. "Some additional
men might be secured in various
ways-for example, as were
Woody Gatlin and Tom Lake,
who were deferred class men,
but voluntarily asked to be ad-
vanced to Class 1.
Incidentally, l might call at
tention once more to what the
action Of those two men may
mean in another way. If we
are forced to call on men of
Classes 2 and 3, the action of
Gatlin and Lake will mean that
two of the deferred class men
will be kept out of the May
calls"
The condition in Nogales
brings home with renewed force
the meanig of the supreme eff
fort that America is making,
and will emphasize the gravity
Of the present war situation.
