Draft Delinquents Warned Pert, Active Senior Honored e
(Editor' comment: The Rogue News has been asked by
the Selective Service Board to print the following draft edi
torial.) Increased failures to register on time for the
draft are creating headaches for many Oregon draft
boards and could cause heartaches to those who
disobey the law.
Draft board members warn that "delinquents"
who deliberately avoid registering, technically go to
the head of the induction list once their names are
known.
The law requires that each young man must
register on his 18th birthday or within five days
thereafter, even though he may be a member of a
reserve or the National Guard.
Many wander in a few days or weeks after the
deadline with such excuses as they were in school,
had to practice some sport, were waiting for the
draft board to remind them, or, as members of a re
serve did not think they had to register. But others,
it appears, are deliberately shirking their obligation.
ALL are delinquents and could be subject to heavy
fines, prison sentences or early induction if Uncle
Sam elected to crack down.
All board members serve without pay. Most of
them have families of their own, and are sympathetic
to an individual's problems. They will do anything
they can for the registrants within regulations.
Board members, local board clerks and advisors
are all willing and able to provide up-to-date infor
mation and helpful advice to all young men facing
military service in one form or another But their
first bit of advice is simply this REGISTER IN
TIME! THIS MEANS WITHIN FIVE DAYS AF
TER YOUR EIGHTEENTH BIRTHDAY!

only our newspaper staff have

To The Editor:
School spirit is very impor
tant in all school activities, par
ticularly in sports. Our team
is doing very well this year,
they deserve the backing of all
the students.
The student attendance at
games has been good, but there
are many more pupils who we
would like to see there.
The pep assemblies are go
ing very well, but remember to
follow the yell leaders in the
jells. The competition yell is
judged mainly on how well the
classes follow the yell leaders.
Each and every student should
learn the yells and songs so
that he will be able to parties
pate adequately in supporting
our team.
Spiritedly Yours,
Brenda Woods
Head Yell Leader
High Schcol, at Portland, also
had their's cut. Their's was due
to the fact that some students
had mischievious ideas. Is this
our reason too?
