5O% OF blindness Avoidable

Half of the nearly 500 Americans
who go blind each year don't need to
lose their sight, says Dr. Franklin II.
Foote, executive director of the Ma
tional Society for the Prevention of
Blindness. The unfortunate half, he
believes, go blind because they do
not know that dotcors can save their

going to eye doctors.

First Draft Call
CONTINUED from Page One)

When the registrant has a per-
manent home, the permanent
home address should be given to
registration officials, Colonel
Goble said. For this purpose
"home" is the place with which
the registrant normally identi-
fies himself and at which he
would wish to be classified.
Colonel Goble pointed out that
there is no liability for service
under the act until the age of
19 is reached, but he emphasized
the obligation to register at Is.
"The law is specific" he said,
''and provides severe penalty for
failure to comply"
Colonel Goble added that the
law is also specific in its re-
quirements concerning obligation
of a registrant to keep his local
board informed as to any change
of address-where he may be
reached by mail, that is-or
change in his status under the
act.
THAT applies after the regis
trant becomes 26 as well as be-
FORE" Colonel Goble said, land
it means that college and uni
versity students, as we'll as other
registrants, should notify their
respective local boards wher
they leave their homes. There is
no form for this. 1t may be done
by mail or personally appearing
at the board office" He empha-
sized that the requirements tc

registrants were in no way al.
tered because there have beer
no inductions since January o1

marking on the fact that the law
specifically states that everyone
between the ages of Is and 2t

planned that the only exceptions
are men on active duty with the

mats and a few aliens under

After the registrant is classi-
fled. he is mailed a notice OF
classification If he believes his
classification unfair, he has ten
days in which to appeal, from
the date of mailing of the notice.
The board of appeal may keep
him in his original classification
or change it to another one.
After the local board studies
all the facts it has gathered con-
cerning a registrant, it decides
the classification in which he is
placed Should the need for men
for the armed services again
arise, the man who is found to
be available, insofar as defer
ments, other than physical, are
concerned, would then be sent
to an armed forces station for a
physical and mental examination.
If found acceptable, he would be
definitely in Class Ia and mail
+, ed notice of acceptability. If
not acceptable to the armed
/ forces, he would be reclaSsified
IV-F.
/ When the director of Selective
Service receives a call from the
armed forces for a certain num-
Der of men, he apportions the
total among the states, which in
turn, apportion it among the To-
cal boards. When the local board
receives the call, the required
number of men are chosen in the
order of their dates of birth
from among those who have
been examined by the armed
forces and found to be accept
able. The process begins with
the oldest 25 year old and pro-
ceeds into the lower age brack-
cts.
The Order to Report for Induc-
ton is mailed not less than ten
days before the date fixed for
reporting. But the date fixed for
reporting is at least twenty-one
days after the date of a notice
that he has been found accept
able by the armed forces.

registrant's residence, age, place
of birth, occupation, employer,
person who will always know
how to reach him by mail, serv-
ice in armed forces, marital sta
tus and so forth. The registrar
asks the necessary questions and
does the actual work of filling
out the card.
When the classification ques-
tionnaire is received care is re-
quired in its completion, but it
is not difficult to fill out, for the
questions are direct and in no
way complicated. Should reg
istrant run into trouble, the
clerk of his local board or its ad-
visor will be happy to help him.
The QUESTIONABLE must be re-
turned within ten days of the
date it was mailed.
"The QUESTIONABLE" Colonel
Goble declared, "is of great i'm
portance for it gives the board
the basic information on which
to decide in which of the class
ifications a registrant shall be
placed"
Present classifications are as
follows:
Class Unavailable for mill
tary service (Class also in
cludes members of the armed
forces, the Coast Guard, the
Coast and Geodetic Survey ol
the Public Health Service; mem
bers or reserve components OF
students taking military train
ing).
Glass II-Deferred because o1
occupational status.
Glass III Deferred because o1
dependency.
Glass IV-Deferred specifically
by law or because unfit for mil
itary service.
Glass V-Over the age of liza
bility for military training.
The local board, Colonel Goble
made it plain, is not restricted to
information in the QUESTIONABLE
The registrant's employer, or his
dependents may submit informa-
ton, and he himself may appear
before the local board, either al
his request or on order of the
board. The board may call or
any reliable source for informa-
ton, but if it is to be considered
in deciding his classification, il
must be reduced to written form
so that it may be placed in his
record.

cause of the absence of Sammy
Ditch, the base drummer. Since

somehow you manage to stay in
bed and be quiet until about $3.50
and then you make enough noise
getting dressed to awaken the
whole neighborhood.
