second draft lottery took place today
Blindfolded officials started the task
in the senate conference room. After
they had drawn the first few num-
bers Miss w. Wellborn. better known
as Major Billy" drew the remaining
of the 1900 capsules containing the
numbers from the great glass globe,
which also was used at the initial
drawing which created the national
army Miss Wellborn is head of the
information bureau of the provost
marshal generals Office and is con-
sidered one of the best Informed per-
sons on the selective service act in
the Crowder organization.
In the initial draft 10000 numbers
were drawn. Today only 1,20O were
recorded, and this was believed to be
nearly two times as many as would
be needed. But Gen. Crowder wanted
TO be on the safe side and was taking
no chances.
