Random selection starts in early Jan.
Senate ok's lottery system of induction
By JOHN HALL
WASHINGTON (UPI) — The Senate approved and forwarded to President Nixon Wednesday a major revision in the Selective Service system under which drafttees would be inducted through a lottery system.
The House-passed bill, a must item on the administration's legislative demands, was rushed through on a voice vote after very brief debate.
Chairman John C. Stennis, D-Miss., of the Senate Armed Services subcommittee, said the bill
would permit random selection of draftees early next year, possibly by Jan. 1. At present, the oldest eligible men are drafted first.
But Defense Secretary Melvin R. Laird told newsmen present plans were to put the random selection system into effect early
Clan patriarch laid to rest
HYANNISPORT, Mass. (UPI)— The body of former Ambassador Joseph P. Kennedy rested Wednesday in a simple metal casket placed near his "favorite view" of Nantucket Sound.
Funeral services and burial will be held Thursday for the 81-year-old patriarch of one of the nation's most politically powerful but ill-fated families. Kennedy, father of a President and two U. S. Senators among his nine children, died Tuesday of a heart attack.
Members of the glamorous family, led by his widow, Rose, and last surviving son, Edward, now head of the "clan," attended a simple mid-morning Mass Wednesday in the sun room, where Kennedy's body was placed.
The dull brown casket was placed near a window overlooking the sound where he used to sail with his family. A spokesman said the spot offered the senior Kennedy's "favorite view" of the waters.
The Rev. John J Cavanaugh, C.S.C., former president of Notre Dame University and a longtime family friend, said the Mass in the sun room of the large white Kennedy home.
Richard Cardinal Cushing of Boston will celebrate the funeral Mass Thursday at St. Francis Xavier Roman Catholic Church, a short distance from the Kennedy compound. The main alter of the church is dedicated to Navy Lt. Joseph P. Kennedy, Jr., the family's oldest son, who died in World War II.
in January, even before the next draft calls were made.
Attendance will be by invitation. Burial will be in Hollyhood Cemetery, Brookline. The elder Kennedys lived in Brookline when they first were married.
The six eldest male grandchildren of Kennedy, former ambassador to Great Britain during 1837-41, will serve as honorary pall bearers.
A large number of telegrams were received from "ordinary people and members of Congress," a family spokesman said.
"This can be done," he said,
"because the draft quotas for November and December have already been met."
One of the first telegrams, he added, was from former President and Mrs. Lyndon B. Johnson. "It was a very nice and gracious telegram to Mrs. Kennedy," he said.
Laird told the Senate Armed Services Committee, during draft hearings, that for the first year the names of all eligible men, regardless of age, would be placed in the lottery
"But within a year." Laird said, "the administration plans to limit the lottery draft to 19-year olds, thus exposing a man to the draft for only one year instead of the six-year stretch from 19 to 26."
At the White House, Press Secretary Ronald L. Zeigler said, "The President was highly gratified that draft reform legislation
Peace talks to resume

A U.S. spokesman said he had no knowledge that a date for resumption of the talks had been set.
had been passed by the Senate."
The bill was sent to the floor only after key Democrats buckled in their demands for a complete overhall of the draft before acting on the lottery system.
Stennis repeated assurance Wednesday but added, "we cannot make any guarantee, of course, at this time," that a draft reform bill would pass next year.

Contact lenses were designed to be a convenience. And they are up to a point. They're convenient enough to wear, once you get used to them, but until recently, you had to use two or more different lens solutions to properly prepare and maintain contacts. You needed two or three different bottles, lens cases, and you went through more than enough daily rituals to make even the most steadfast individuals consider dropping out.
But now caring for your contacts can be as convenient as wearing them. Now there's Lensine, from the makers of Murine. Lensine is the one lens solution designed for complete contact lens care . . . preparing, cleansing, and soaking.
Just a drop or two of Lensine before you insert your lens prepares it for your eye. Lenses makes your contacts, which are made of modern plastics, compatible with your eye. How? Lensine is an "isotonic" solution. That means it's made to blend with the eye's natural fluids. So a simple drop or two
coats the lens, forming a sort of comfort zone around it.
Cleaning your contacts with Lensine fights bacteria and foreign deposits that build up during the course of the day. And for overnight soaking, Lensine provides a handy contact canister on
the bottom of every bottle. Soaking your contacts in Lensine between wearing periods assures you of proper iens hygiene.
Improper storage between wearings permits the growth of bacteria on your lenses. This is a sure cause of eye irritation and, in some cases, it can endanger your vision. Bacteria cannot grow in Lensine Lensine is sterile, self-sanitizing, and antiseptic.
Let your contacts be the convenience they were designed to be. The name of the game is Lensine. Lensine, made by the Murine Company, Inc.
Are you cut out for contact sports?
