Face Mar. 9 Deadline
By Lrf*n Calvert
Emerald An jlant Mewl Editor
Students who plan to take the
selective service college qualifica
cations test must have their appli
cations filed by Mar. 9, selective
service headquarters has an
nounced.
The test will be given April 23.
The results will be reported to the
student’s locnl draft board for con
sideration of his deferment as a
! student. _
ROTC deferments were reopened
; to students on Feb. 16, Col. E. L.
' Bruns, head of the military de
; partment, has announced. Accord
I ing to Colonel Bruns, up to 85 per
'cent of the freshmen men will be
eligible for military deferment.
Acceptable Work
Sophomores who are doing ac
ceptable work and are possible
candidates for the advanced ROTC
course will also be eligible for de
ferment, Colonel Bruns stated.
Junior and senior men formally en
rolled in the advanced course are
granted deferments.
Conditions of military defer
ments, according to Colonel Bruns,
include the students signing an
agreement saying he will apply for
and complete the advanced course,
if accepted. This will give him a
j military deferment for his sopho
more year. If accepted for the ad
vance cour se the student agrees to
accept a reserve officer's commis
sion with the proviso of a minimum
of two years active duty. The com
mission lasts for eight years,
starting the day it is granted.
You Can Retire
If the man decides to retain his
; commission and remain active in
the inactive reserves, he will be
eligible for retirement with pay.
The .size of the retirement pay
ments vary with the number of
years on active duty, Colonel Bruns
said.
Also emphasized by Colonel
Bruns was the fact that if fresh
men sign the agreement saying
they intend to apply for advanced
KOTC and then do not the mili
tary department must cancel their
deferment.
A. L. EUingson, counsellor for
men, said that military deferment
currently give students the best
chance of remaining in school for
four years.
Not Kougli
When asked about the num
ber of students who have been
drafted from the University, El
lir.gson stated that the draft
boards have not "been as rough
as was expected” on the students.
However, he warned that men who
have received orders to take their
physical for the draft must do so.
He explained that when a stu
dent receives his orders to report
for his physical he should request
a letter from the registrar's of
fice tor his diaft board stating
that he is enrolled in school and
giving his grades. The student
should also write a personal let
ter to the board asking for con
sideration of his student standing,
he said.
EUingson added that under the
present regulations set up by se
lective service, freshmen men are
eligible for one full year of col
lege.
Students with questions con
cerning their draft status should
contact the office of student af
fairs, EUingson said.
