Washington, Sept. 28—(UP)—Selective service headquarters reached back into antiquity today to prove that the first draft registration for military service was divinely ordered in the days of Moses.
Furthermore, an official said, Ulysses, who gained some measure of fame as a post-Trojan war wanderer, was the first known draft dodger some 3,000 years ago. ◎
While headquarters was awaiting the final count of registrants for the forthcoming peacetight draft, Lt. Col. Irving W. Hart, press officer, delved into the Old Testament and the works of the blind poet, Homer, and came up with these statistics:
Homer put the stigma of first draft dodger on Ulysses, who was more interested in his wife, Penelope, than he was in fighting for his chief, King Menelaus, who warred because he had lost his wife.
Chapter I of the Old Testament book of Numbers records that the Lord ordered Moses and Aaron to register and classify men "from 20 years old and upward, all that are able to go forth to war in Israel; thou and Aaron shall number them by their armies." That first known registration listed 603,550 men, according to the Bible.
The king's messenger, to test Ulysses' sanity, placed his infant child directly in the path of a plow being guided by the baby's father. Ulysses swerved his oddly-assorted team plea a donkey and an ox—in the nick of time. That action proved his sanity and he was taken off to the wars and a lot of later excitement that he relished.
Helen, to the more romantic Paris Delving into the Homeric poem the Odyssey, Colonel Hart came up with the story of how Ulysses feigned insanity to avoid war service under his king, after his "induction orders" had been received
Colonel Hart said his research had failed to point up any moral that would apply to the 1943 peacetime draft. But he noted that Ulysses was a low-grade "goof-off" who might have trouble fooling a modern-day psychiatrist.
Aliotti Elected ASC Member By Independents
Aldo Aliotti, graduate student,
was elected by unanimous ballot to fill the vacated post of A.S.C. member-at-large at the first meeting of the Independent Men's party Monday night.
Two new officers were also elected as well as freshmen members to the senate of the party. Donald Giffen, College freshman, took office as a vice-president, and James H. Storer, fine arts freshman, will be the new secretary.
Members of the senate are Charles L. Childers, fine arts freshman; James L. Childers, College freshman; Storer William Herwig, business junior; Gerald L. Peterson, College freshman; Charles R. Smith, College freshman; and Ernest J. Kohman, engineering freshman.
Nominations for the freshman election will be given at the meeting Oct. 4, Robert Bock, graduate student and president of the group, announced. The candidates to be offered by the men's half of the independent students will be the president and treasurer of the freshman class, and the freshman men's representative to the A.S.C.

Rocket Plane Passes Sound
Cleveland. Sept. 28-(UP)-An American rocket plane has been speeds ranging from 850 miles an hour to "more than 1,000" miles an hour, the Cleveland Press said it was learned today.
The fact that such a speed has been attained was first hinted at Saturday in a New York speech by Air Secretary W. S. Symington. He said then that an American plane had flown several hundred miles on hour faster than the speed of sound (763 M.P.H. at sea level).
The speeds were definitely established today at the annual inspection tour of the National Advisory committee for Aeronautics Flight Propulsion laboratory at the Cleveland airport, the Press said.
The information was not officially announced, but facts of the man-piloted tests at Lake Muroc, Calif. were confirmed by officials present today who refused use of their names, it added.
The plane was the army's XS-1, manufactured by the Bell Aircraft corporation. It has been undergoing tests since last November and still is being perfected. It is launched from the belly of a B-29 bomber at altitudes of about 40,000 feet.
Of the four army pilots who have flown the plane at supersonic speeds, only one is still living. Three were killed in accidents involving other

Chest X-Rays For Employees
Chest x-rays of all employees of organized University residence houses are being taken in Watkins Memorial hospital, Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the University Health service said Monday. The x-rays are being made to detect signs of tuberculosis in any employee who has extensive contact with the students.
The service is primarily for the protection of the students, so all dormitory employees including house mothers, food handlers and maids should have the pictures made. The service has been part of the hospital's health program for the past 8 or 10 years and has aided in detecting several advanced stages of tuberculosis. Dr. Cauteson said
He asked that dormitory employees report to Watkins Memorial hospital between the hours of 8 and 10 a.m. and 2 and 5 p.m. sometime before Oct. 8.
Two hundred of the 2,400 students who took tuberculosis shots during physical examinations did not return to have the tests read, Dr. Canuteson said. Those who did not report back to the hospital will be notified to take another test.

Burton Hodgden, graduate student, was elected president of the Entomology club when members met Monday in snow hall. Other officers chosen include Betty Poling as vice-president and Jane Topping as secretary-treasurer.
