number assigned to any man un-
der the jurisdiction of the board
was 1929. The difference, 1853, Is
the number of men registered on
October 16, but not yet inducted,
If this board had ZIG new reg
istrants to integrate it would figure
out the interval at which to space
the new names by dividing 216-the
new men-into 2589-those left.
The result would be 11.9S, which
would be taken as IL in determin-
ing the yardstick for use in spac-
ing.
With IL as its yardstick, this
hoard would count down IL men on
its list from the last man inducted
as of June 80, and would insert the
name of the new registrant with
sequence number one between
twelfth and thirteenth old regis
trants. 1t would then count down
IL more and insert the name of
the new registrant with sequence
number two. between the twenty
fourth and twenty-fifth and so on.
The number at which new regis
trants are spaced on the lists will
vary with different boards, it was
emphasized.
The order numbers of new regis
trants will be ascertained after
their names are inserted in the lists
in this manner. Each new regis
trant will automatically receive the
order number of the old registrant
Immediately preceding him. The
order number of new registrants,
