Boyden Reporter Publishes Military Draft News and Local Notices
The Boyden Reporter reports no formal draft calls before Feb 15 and outlines the new class system for the draft. It notes 54 percent of first-contingent men not yet called and expects their inclusion in the second period. Local boards will certify skilled workers for exemptions and classifications. The paper also covers Navy recruitment, listing needed tradesmen and locations to apply, and congratulates local readers on New Year visits.
