Result of New Military Draft

Names of Those Listed in the Present Call.

Only Five Rejected

Thirty-One More to be Examined next Wednesday -- Waiting for Results of District Board of Appeals. -- Only 50 to Go.

     The draft board and the medical examining board handled 104 men last week, and have reported all but five passed.  The names of the men handled are given below.  Those rejected or passed for limited service are so labeled.  Those given without comment were passed.
     Thirty-one more men are to appear before the board next Wednesday.  These men did not respond to the first call because of conditions.  A majority of them had appeals from their classification being acted on by the district board.  Those whose appeals have been denied and who remain in Class One will therefore appear before the board next Wednesday for examination.
     Humboldt county is only asked for 50 men in this draft.  The number in Class One is 135.  Therefore when exemptions are all made, the remaining men will be drawn according to their numbering in the original war draft.
