These Include Forest Johnson, to field artillery; William Sax-ton, auto driver, engineer corps, and W. B. Yoeman, to the same service. Recruiting officers are somewhat disappointed over the recruiting movement since registration day. they having expected that as soon as the men between 21 and 31 years had registered there would be something of a rush to get into the service before they are drafted.

But from recruiting figures for the period since Tues-dsy It appears that most men between those ages are willing to take their chances of being drafted. They figure they have one chance In fifty of being taken. The drive In the First Battalion, N. G. Is still on, but only five recruits were secured, these being Marcel B.
