THE SELECTIvE SERVICE LAW

A series of Memorandum from the office of
Gov f. l.. Philip regarding the administra-
of the Seective Service Law
Iron County news. [volume] (Hurley, Wis.) 1913-1950, 1918-01-26
Memorandum No. 1890 Jan. Is, 1918
COOPERATION OF LOCAL POLICE.

The attention of police officials of the
State of Wisconsin is respectively invited
to this memorandum.
Local Boards are urged to call the at
tention of all police officials within their
jurisdiction to it's contents.
Under the Selective Service Law, the
President of the United States may under
regulations prescribed by him, utilize the
service of any public official in the Unit
ed States to assist local boards in the ad-
ministration of the draft. This is true
whether the appointment is made by the
President himself, or by the Governor or
any other officer of any state or territory.
Failure or neglect fully to perform any
duty required of such public official or
agent is misdemeanor and punishable by
Imprisonment for not more than one
year."
Under section 40 of the regulations, it
is made the duty of police officials of any
state, or county, or municipality, or other
subdivision thereof, to locate and take
into custody registrants who have failed
to perform any duty required of them and
to bring them forthwith before local
boards to determine whether their cases
shall be reported to the Federal Depart.
ment of Justice for prosecution, and to
serve the summons to witnesses issued
by local or district boards, as provided in
section 9 hereof.
/ The regulations define police officials
as mentioned above to include all United
States and State, county, and municipal
marshalS and sheriffS and their deputies,
police, conStableS and the constabulary.
and all other similar officers by whatever
name known, having authority to take
I persons into custody in order to preserve
the peace and quiet of the community
and to maintain public order and tran.
quillity."
There is no provision under the regula-
tons for the payment of police officials
for the service required of them in the
regulations, Ii is expected that local com
munities will be glad to cooperate with
the Federal Government by rendering this
service required of their officials without
extra compensation from the Federal
Government.
Local Boards should, of course, as far
as possible, call into its service police Of
ficials who will be least inconvenienced
by the request, but the duty is placed
upon local boards to see that the law is
fully complied with and to secure the
cooperation of local police officials for
this purpose. Failure of police officials
TO comply with the requests of local
boards should be reported to the Gov.
ernor's Office with full statement of the
facts for reference where advisable to
the United States District Attorney.
Through the local press, it is advisable
that the attention of police officials be
called to the terms of Sections AZ. so and
81 of the Regulations.
1t is of the utmost importance that this
memorandum be be given the widest pos
sible publicity.

LEARNED FROM GOLF EXPERT
Fred Luderus, Who Had Habit Of Step.
ping Forward at Plate, Is Shown
Error Of his Ways.

1t is said that Fred Luderus, one of
the most dangerous hitters In the Ma
tiOnal league, really became IN eifcc.
tive batter through the instructions of
Il golf expert.
This golf expert was I'm the city
where the Phillics We're training. He
noticed that Luderus had II tendency to
step forward and throw his body in
front of the plate as he prepared to
swing ut the ball. Now to II golfer
that was II fatal weakness. The good
golfer always throws his body into the
swing. 1t Is certain that If the body
goes forward first the only power re-
naming in the swing Is that of the
arms alone.
This expert noted that when Luderus
met the ball there was no force to the
blow and easy grounders trickled OFF
his bat. He coached Luderus on his
stance, as he called 1t, and explained
the necessity of getting the force be.
hind the blow. Luderus tried 1t and
after time began to belt the ball with
terrific force. And any big league play
er will tell you now that Luderus GER
tainly has wallOp.

TY COBB, IN SGD YEAR
IS BEST DRAWING CARD

Ty Cobb Is In his thirty-sccond
year. He has been playing with
! the Detroits since 1905, the only
year I'm which his batting aver.
! age was less than 300. The
Georgia Peach has been the
champion batsman of the Amerl-
can league ut the end of each
campaign since 1907, excepting
1916, when iris SpeGScr had Il
! better average. Cobb's great
est batting record was 400, be-
Ing hung up In 1911. Last year !
! he batted 1888, and never played
more brilliantly. In spite of I'D
, vanclng years, Cobb still Is In
his prime. He Is easily the
! greatest ball player of all time,
and he Is worth the $4,000 sal
/ ary which the Detroit club has
been paying him since 1914. As
n drawing card Tyrus Raymond
stands ut the head of the class.
