Single Men
Get First Call
BY WILLIAM e. ZIMMERMAN

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6 (INS)
-Selective service headquarters
today ordered a nationwide
pool" of all nonfathers in a move
to prevent the induction Of family
men before the single class is exc
hausted.
The step also was taken to in-
sure that the drafting of pre-.
Pearl Harbor fathers will begin
at approximately the same time
throughout the country.
On the heels of demands by
Senator Wheeler CD of Montana,
and other congressional leaders
for months delay in the induce
ton of fathers and mounting pro-
test from individual draft boards
against calling such men October
/, selective service headquarters
notified state draft directors:
TAKE FATHERS LAST
National headquarters re-
iterates its policy that every
administrative action will be
taken so that all states and
local boards will have exhausted
the supply of available men
other than fathers at the Same
time.
Adjustments In state calls
will be made by national head
quarters so that all states SO
far as possible will begin to de-
liver fathers to fill calls at tho
same time"
Although adjustment of state
quotas on a limited basis has been
carried out for a year, officials
said that the forthcoming action
would be a full adjustment on q
national basis and completely wipe
out the discrepancies betweer
local boards as to the supplys-ol
eligible non-fathers available.

The life of a baseball umpire and

similar as Hitler and Humanity;
but all is not vinegar and gall in
the life of the boys in blue. Take
the able Bill Stanton, for instance.
In the first place, 1t takes quite
a hunk of man to stand by his guns

done quite job of it, though the
financial reward can in no way be
considered fair return for what
the job entails. especially when it
comes to holding ones own with
hot-headed ball players, managers,
fans, ct al.
Off the field, however it Is
somewhat different story. for in
Bills case, it is possible for a base
ball umpire who is regular guy
with a clear head to be popular.
Last year the CLIO sent Bill as a
delegate to its convention in Den
yer, Colorado. This year he is one
O five, decided by VOTE, who will
represent the local groups of the

creates the obvious conclusion that
such popularity, coupled with abil-
ity--must be deserved.
