Draft Manpower Pool May Hit 'College Joe'
Washington—(U.P.)-Selective Service Director Lewis B. Hershey said today the draft manpower pool will dip dangerously low next year and the government will have to take some action by fall to get more men.
MARINE OFFICERS IN THE MAKING.-KU men were among the 326 graduates from 129 U.S. Colleges who took part in the Marine Corps six-week summer platoon leaders class program at the Leatherneck recruiting驻 in San Diego, Calif. Shown chatting during a training lull with Lt. Col. H. "K" Thronese, commanding officer of the Marine-West Coast PLC unit, are (left to right back row: William A. Farney, Charles O. Grover, Bion J. Swords, and Billy D. Yockey; front row: James C. Weber, Robert E. Laey, Charles L. Moon II and Robert D. Fulton. They will be commissioned second lieutenants Marine Corp Reserve upon graduation with a baccalaureate degree and the completion of the senior summer course to be held at Quantico, Va.
1. 4-F's who flunked their armed services examination for either physical or mental reasons.
He said the additional men must come from one or more of these groups:
2. Students deferred from military service to continue their college educations.
3. Draft-age fathers.
In no case would the draft law have to be changed. to get more men from these groups into the armed forces. Hershey indicated he is not seriously considering a recommendation that congress change the law to revise age limits or otherwise make a greater overall pool of men subject to the draft.
He fears that drafting men over 26 would not produce enough fight-ing men to make the task worth while and feels that many persons question the wisdom of drafting men below 18½.
The draft director admitted he is not certain yet what steps should be taken to obtain the additional manpower, but made clear he hopes to get the men from within the 18½-26 age limits now subject to the draft.
Thus, if monthly draft calls run around 50,000 or 60,000 as expected after July 31 next year, the 500,000 figure will start dwindling at a fast clip.
Hershey told reporters there will be 500,000 men in the draft-age manpower pool next July 31. Between 90,000 and 100,000 are expected to become liable to the draft each month, but only about a third of these are expected to become I-A's.
Woodard Receives $3,150 for Research
"Anytime the pool hits 400,000 when calls run that high." He she said. "you are in trouble."
Dr. Parke H. Woodard associate professor of physiology, has received a grant of $3,150 from the U.S. Public Health service for continuation of research on the mechanisms of anaphylaxis.
The study is concerned with the mechanisms underlying the severe reactions people have to the introduction of foreign proteins.
Richard P. White, physiology instructor and graduate student from East Chicago, Ind., is the chief research assistant.
Dr. Woodard said White had discovered that introduction of a foreign protein produces a drop in blood pressure and a loss of clotting power in the blood.
Business School Adds Instructor
Mr. Watson will teach the courses in life, property and casualty insurance. He has just received the M.A. degree from the Wharton School of Finance of the University of Pennsylvania. At Penn he held the S. S. Hueber Foundation fellowship for insurance education the past two years. He earned the B.S. degree in 1950 from Kansas State college.
John W. Watson of Manhattan has been appointed instructor in the School of Eusiness.
Dean Leonard Axe said the addition of an insurance specialist to the faculty would permit future expansion of the offerings in this important business field.
Mr. Watson is married to a KU alumna, the former Barbara Jean Givin from Manhattan, of the class of 1950.
Grading, ditching, and drainage work was completed about Aug. 1 on the University-owned estate of the late Gov. Charles Robinson, northeast of Lawrence.
In cooperation with the Production and Marketing administration, work was done to recover 35 to 40 acres of farmland which had been damaged by the 1951 flood. In addition, the two agencies filled a hole hole washed out by the flood and cleared an embankment north of the Lawrence airport area, located on about 100 acres of the estate.
University Clears Governor's Estate
Karl Klooz, bursar and manager of the 1,290-acre farm, said the University paid $488.10 and the PMA paid $1,952.40 to clear out a main drainage ditch through the area north of the airport and open up the smaller drainage ditches in the field.
The University also paid $2,374 to have brush and trees cleared off the embankment north of the airport. This cleared land is to be needed to prevent erosion. Mr.Klooz said the drained fields have been plowed and disked. Wheat will be planted there this fall.
Other sections of the estate are occupied by two tenant farmers and a research project being carried on by the University.
