Local Board Inducts 14 Into Service
Fourteen men are being inducted today by the Lake County Draft Board Leesburg. Sixty eight more will report to the Jacksonville exam center for pre induction physicals to determine fitness to serve. The call is about evenly divided between married and single men including some 19 year olds. Regulations require calling all available single men before those married prior to last August when President Johnson set an executive limit on deferments for later marriages. A month ago 24 draftees produced more married selections, but the board is continued on page 8.
