Draft Head Offers New Dodge on Draft Lottery Policy
Washington AP Draft Director Curtis Tarr proposed letting men with lottery numbers above 195 drop deferments and declare 1A before year end, counting any draft exposure as a full year and shifting them to a safer category in 1971. The plan excludes second lottery holders and asks local boards to favor reclassification. Tarr urged advance proof for renewal of deferments. Separately Corry Memorial Hospital reports a $65,000 quarterly loss due to very low occupancy from June to September, with occupancy 30 to 60 percent and revenue recovery pushed into January-June next year.
