OH, YOU CANT GET Disquaifications Listed INTO THE ARMY, IF-' (Associated Press Feature Service) Suppose, young Mr. America, your number DOES come up in the proposed draft lottery. What then? One chance in three, you'll be turned down as physically unfit! That’s been the recent propor- tion of rejection among volun- teers, and U. S. army officials an- ticipate no lowering of standards for drafted men. On a sample lot of 1,186 volun- teers in May, 393 or 33.1 percent were rejected. Of these rejec- tions, 27.23 percent failed be- cause of teeth. A rookie must have at least 12, properly located. Next biggest current cause of re- jection is faulty eyesight, failing of 19.34 percent. Minimum requirements for height are 5 feet, 4 inches; for weight, 120 pounds, and for chest expansion, two inches. Just 13.69 percent went out for these rea- sons. Poor hearing knocked out 10.69 percent. Pronounced flat feet, knock knees and bow leg took a toll, along with | r causes of rejection including j ” | street. The visit marked the second within the year for these Balti- more residents. Mrs. James Left For Boston Mrs. Thomas James, wife of Lieut. Thomas James, U.S.N., and two daughters, Josephine and Gwendolyn, left over the high- way Thursday enroute to the Bos- , ton Navy Yard, at Boston, Mass., to visit her husband. Mrs. A.

Tender Ivy, was a returning passenger on the S.S. Cuba this week and is visiting at the home of her uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. C. U. Allshouse, on Flagler Avenue. IT’S NOT BOLTERS, IT’S THE FLOATERS (Continued from Page One) lished in 1934, said: “(Edward J.) \Flynn is the coming man of na- tional Democratic politics”. Incidentally, the fellow de- scribed him as “a -reasonably well-educated man, has_ read widely, collects Pennell etchings and knows something about eco- nomics. He can carry on an in- telligent conversation on almost any subject, has a_ delightful sense of humor and plays a fair’ game of golf. He’s just like a! successful uptown busines#@ man He@yent on to say that the new national Democratic committee! chairman is “shrewd and able, far abler than Farley”. Observers here don’t bother to argue that. . .it couldn’t be prov- ed one way or the other. But what they do say is that Farley and Fivnn are than .Sia- mese twin Demo- them- national ~ INTERESTING NOTES TS en Newly hatched spiders can’t eat.

CORRECTION A typesetter’s error occurred in yesterday’s issue of The Citizen when it was declared that Mrs. Bernard Cruz would attend the wedding of her son in Tampa: next Tuesday. The item should have stated—Mrs. Cruz will at- tend the wedding of Thurman Sands, Jr., son of Mrs. Thurman Sands, Sr., of this ciy, to Miss Yolanda Volente, of Tampa.
