McDonnell, clerk of Local Board No. 17, Medford. The law requires that every young man must register on his 18th birthday or within five days thereafter unless on active duty. This also applies to mem bers of reserve and National Guard units, Mrs. McDonnell explained. Men on regular active mili tary duty must register within 30 days after separation if not previously registered. If they are registered prior to entry into service, they must report within 10 days after separation. Aliens born on or after Sept. 15, 1925, who have entered the United Stales on a permanent visa are required to register within six months after entry. Provides Lists Registration provides lists of prospective peacetime draftees. However, it also provides t h e government with available man power should total mobilization become necessary, Mrs. McDon nell noted. Unles a man volun teers or becomes "delinquent" he may have to wait about four years before facing induction. Young men who do not reg ister on time could be declared "delinquent." Then they may be inducted ahead of others in the same age group who have registered. Although draft board members are reluctant to take this action, drafting of delin quents would set an example. Registrants must take birth certificates or documents for verification of legal name, place and date of birth. Additional in formation may be obtained by calling Local Board No. 17, 711 Main st., Room 18, or by tele phoning 772-8482 between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Mondays through Fridays.

The Family Council Ldltor'i no'e: The Family Council conitsts ot a )udgt, phytfciatrut, thrte clergymen, three editors and m women's editor. Karh article is a summary of a family disagreement presented to the Council. Ttt4 Council deals with problems, major and minor, encountered by guidance counselors and social workers. Edited by Mrs. Alma Dermy. (Copyright by Genera Feature Corp.) Brcnda T. We're in dread , that he'll try it again. Jill T. He won't because now he's being treated. Brcnda T. Our parents are dead and we three sisters keep house for our brother. We've just been through a horrible experience. He made a suicide attempt and now he's about toi be returned home. The doctors told us that he's responding to psychiatric treatment and real izes how foolish his behavior was. But we all go to work and there's no one around to watch 4-H NEWS Snappy Cooks The first meeting of the Snap py Cooks 4-H club for the fall season was held at the home of the leader, Mrs. Florey. There were 10 members present and the meeting was called to order by Sally McKay. New officers were elected as follows: Phyllis Roberts, presi dent; Cindy Ryerson, vice presi dent; Sally McKay, secretary; Jcri Parish, treasurer; Gail Glass, reporter. Kathy Ross was chosen game chairman, and Judy DeBerry, refreshments chairman. On the calling committee is Dcbra Chavis; on program, Debbie Zuspan; demonstration, Corinne Florey. Members decided to hold meetings every other Thursday. They were asked to learn cook ing terms for a quiz which will be held at the next meeting on Oct. 24 at the Florey home. Gail Glass, Reporter him. I think he should go to a rest home awhile. Jill T. There's no occasion for hysterics or dramatics now. Pete isn't sick. His doctor told us he was deeply depressed, but this is a common condi tion in young fellows who can't be philosophical about a few disappointments. We didn't real ize what agony he was in after losing his job, his girl, and a sales competition. He sees now that his solution was no solution. He has a new job waiting and feels fine. The Council: In a new survey of suicide, the University of Michigan Medical Center dis tinguishes between "gestures" and "serious attempts." Fortu nately the former constitute most of the episodes and are defined as attempts to manipu late others. Linked with these is the hope of rescue. . . . Stand ing off and surveying his act, this brother has been helped to see why he did what he did. Evidently he could find no oth er way to dissolve the storm clouds pressing down on him. By indicating he no longer cared to live, he would punish his family for its ineffectualness in his life. To Brenda we offer this reassurance: If Pete were seri ously ill he might be sent to a rehabilitation center. Instead, he's returning to his home. Whoever is treating him will also guide her and the family on their role in his recovery. . . . And the Save-A-Life League is now listed in the telephone books of many cities for 24-hour-a-day psychiatric help for would-be suicides. When work is completed on the White City installation 69, 000-volt energy fed into the sub station from a transmission lin originating at Medford's Lona Pine substation will be stepped down to the 12,000-volt operating level for delivery over distribu tion feeder lines serving Whita City, Cascade Village and Eagle Point. Total cost of the project is an estimated $72,000, Benesh said. At present, the substation i operating on three 2,500 kva transformers with combined forced air rating of 8.600 kva. The capacities of tranformers are increased by the cooling ac tion of fans installed in tha equipment. The new 7,500 kva transform er has a forced rating of 10.500 kva which will raise the cap acity of the substation to 19,100 kva. more than twice as high as it is now, Benesh explained.
