Ellingson Gives
Advice on Draft
Freshmen men who have re
ceived their physical notices can
request draft deferment for the
remainder of the term, according
to Counselor of Men 81 Efllng
son.
The draft boards first send
the student his notice for a phys
ical. After taking the physical,
the student must send a personal
letter to the board requesting
deferment and must request the
registration office to verify his
registration in school.
Then, Ellingson said, the stu
dent may get a notice of Induc
tion before he receives his re
classification to 1-8 or before he
receives a notice of postpone
ment of induction.
Ellingson suggested that any
student who has received his
physical or induction notice may !
discuss the situation at the of- |
flee of student affairs.

POW Trade Offer
Accepted by Allies
<hltAfhl~AM!?teKdiSpatCh fr°? K£rea Monc,ay night reported
- at the Allies have accepted a Communist proposal for ex
changing sick and wounded prisoners of war
1 he prisoners exchanged would include those less seriously
drsabkd. T risoners in this category would be moved to a
neutral country.
I he chief of the allied liaison team, Rear Admiral John Dan
, accepted the red offer after an 11 minute meeting in Pan
munjom. Daniel said his acceptance was based on the condi
tion that no prisoner be repatriated against his will.
Lnder the Geneva convention, prisoners likely to recover
from their disability within one year may be sent to a neutral
nation instead of being returned to their homeland. That's so
they wouldn t rejoin the fighting forces.
