Numbers Of Draftees
 Are Being Rushed
gcontinued From Page l)T

The order in which serial num- bers are drawn will determine the order in which selective service regis trants are summoned to service.
 No More Positions.
 . Major Fox and other board chair men joined today in announcing that there are no more positions as clerks or assistants to be filled. Scores of applicants have been storming the four of1ces, though no jobs are available, and valuable time has had to be taken from the task of listing names and numbers.
 The master sheets compiled here are being rushed to Hartford for the making of stencils. Then the sheets are being returned to the board chairmen for use at the local offices.
 Many of those receiving numbers were still under the impression that early listing meant they would be among the first called to army service for a year. Board officials asked that it be emphasized again that the numbers assigned are only serial numbers, not, order numbers. The order numbers will be deter mined by the lottery at Washington
