WASHINGTON, March ID
R-The nations first draft lot
terry of the war, a step toward
classification of about 5000, 900
men for possible military serv-
ice, ended at ITO am. Eastern
War Time today, q little more
than 13 hours after 1t started.
Only 6,998 numbers, two less
than was planned, were drawn
from the historic draft goldfish
bowl.
Selective Service officials i'm
mediately went into a conference
to determine whether additional
capsules would be drawn to
bring the number up to 1000.
SAILOR DRAWS
Albert Carter, q sailor from
Albany, Georgia, plucked the
last number from the bowl dur
ing the regular drawing. Secre-
tary of War Stimson drew the
first number, 3485, last night.
The lottery was held to deter
mine the order in which quail
fled men will be called up for
examination leading to military
1service. Those affected are be-
tween 20 and A years of age and
who had not registered for the
1910 and 18!, S~iective Service
drawings.
After government officials and
congressman drew the first num-
bers last night, teams Of soldiers,
sailors. marines, officers and
clerks worked through the night
geared to q rate Of about 500
capsules an hour.
The ceremonies started at 6
O'Clock.
Brig. Gen. Lewis u. Hershey,
director of Selective Service, an
nounced that a check had shown
that due to misprint there were
two serial numbers 1885 drawn.
One should have been 1885 he
said.
DECIDE ERROR
1t was decided that the proper
order number for serial number
1885 was number 1885 and that
all serial numbers drawn with
order numbers after number 742
which got the first 1855, would
be moved up by one order num-
Der.
This necessitated changing the
order of the numbers in 6,258
places.
To make up for the misprint

UP and DOWN Parish STREET
PARRISH STREET SATURDAY
By PERCY GREENE

PARRISH STREET SATURDAY
NIGHT: Up on the Harlem End of
the Ole Stroll, in company with a
few of my old cronies, I saw some
thing that frightened me, and
pretty nearly got the best of one
of my friends who is a pretty con-
sentative fellow. AS we got up in
front of the Pool Room, crowd of
smart alec's were standing out in
front, and just as a very young girl
passed, one of them pretended that
he had suddenly got tickled and
grabbed her and Rugged her. Such
rowdyism up and down the ole
ave., wasn't known in the days
when l was a boy, and it is as
unbecoming now as it was then.
One thing regretted about the
whole affair is that young girls
father was there abouts so that
Rowdy could have been cured of
that habit then and there-and you
Hot Parish Streeters," better find
iomething else to play with before
hat gets you in hotter water.

field pretty thoroughly explored by
scientists all over the world. The
difficulty Of production is not so
much a lack Of formulas as high
costs and lack of materials. Little
Of practical use resulted, although
the council still hopes for new in
formation on the subject.
Old Ideas Revived.
There were many designs for steel
wheels with resilient rims supported
by coil and leaf springs, or by hy-
draulic pistons. In fact, some of
the designs dated back to the earliest
days of the bicycle. Carriages, too,
rolled on wheels whose spokes were
seated in springs arranged about
the hubs.
In all, about 10000 types of spring
wheels are on file at the Patent
Office.
Among the recent patents were
wheels of wooden cleats cushioned
on springs. and spring wheels COW
cred with fiber, fabrics and plaStics.
Perhaps the most practical sug-
gestions were for conservation Of tire
treads. The side walls Of modern
tires, it was said, are especially en-
during. Coverings of fiber and stee.
mesh were suggested for the treads,
along with adhesive coatings which
can be sprayed or painted on the
tires
Many jackets or outer tire castings
