More Select Men Called.

A total of 204 men will be sent to
army camps by the local board during
the month of July, almost completely
draining class one in this district. Call
No 772 takes 80 men to Columbus bar
racks during the five day period begin
ming July 5; call No. 1856 is for 81 men
to be sent to the same camp during the
five day period beginning July Is; and
call No. 500 is for l43 men to be sent
to Camp Grant during the five day per-
iod beginning July q.
The call for 143 men is by far the
largest order yet received and almost
equals the combined calls for men from
this district from the first one last
September up to the present date. The
quotas for the district for the two calls
for mechanics have not been announced
but it is thought that not more than
four men will be called.
Reconsideration work performed by
the local board Saturday afternoon
added Is men to class one and approx
mately 100 men to class two. This
makes the total number of men now
listed in the first class and subject to
call approximately 24O men. 1t will no
doubt be necessary to reject many OF
these for physical disabilities so that
when all the calls have been filled there
will be no men left in class one.
