t£r3J♦I J rFound Improp'Filled OutRegistrants( *The Plymouth county selective service board does not anticipate any further calls for men for military training before the first week in February although they have no official information as to the exactdates. Newspaper* reports say 770 men will be called from Iowa in February and this county’s quota on such a call would probably be five or‘six men and there are volunteers enough to fill such a quota.The secretary of the board says ihany questionnaires are being returned improperly or incompletely filld out that have to be sent back to the registrants for completion or correction.
