Certain Draft Violators
Released From Prison

WASHINGTON, March 24.-lR-
Selective Service and the Federal
Bureau of Prisons is now speeding
release from prison of certain draft
violators in order to place them
in the armed forces or in useful
work.
Federal Prisons Director James
" Bennett said in his annual re-
port released today, the revised
procedure works this way:
A draft violator, Is through 81
years of age, who has served oo
or more days of his sentence IS
classified by a special draft board
as available for combat military
service, as a conscientious OBJ
hector available for civilian work
of national importance"

STAR ON ICE

United States and Canada for pro-
| ficiency in skating.
The girl who defeated the Amer
lean champion, Gretchen Merrill,
to win the brightest skating crown
in this hemisphere, is pretty and
soft voiced. She has fair skin,
chestnut hair and big schoolgirl
eyes. grey as steel. She is the
daughter of the late Colonel Clyde
rutherford Scott, who searved ov-
erseas in World War I and was
military advisor to the Ministry
of National Defense and the Min
istry of Air in the present war.
The new champion has brother
in the Canadian air force and
married sister. She lives in Of
tawa with her mother, good
looking woman with steel grey
eyes, who accompanied her to
New York for the championship
competition.
Barbara, who is twice winner
of the Canadian title, has d.
voted her life to skating since
she got a pair of Christmas
skates, when she was seven. In
no time at all she was spinning
around the Mimic Skating Club
of Ottawa, soon took her tests
and before long won the clubs
Devonshlre Cup. Soon afterWard
she annexed the junior and ma
tional figure skating champion
ships and went on to other glories.
Now she spends every morning
from nine to twelve perfecting
her figure skating-a task which
combined the rigors of riveting
with the precision of fine line
drawing. Afternoons she is tu-
tored and between times she
studies music and gets in as
much piano practice as she can.
Dates?
mo dates" said Barbara, who
Is known as "B. A." to her friends.
"You ca,'t scare up beau for
me. Skating keeps me too busy.
What am 1 going to make my
career? Oh . well . . . after
I get too old to compete, I'm
going to study household science.
