Q. I am 18 years old and will not be 19 until after Decem ber 31, 1969. Do I have a selective service random se quence number? A. No. Your random sequence will be determined by the first drawing held after you become 19. Q, Once I receive a random se quence number, will this number change from year- to year as new drawings are held? A. No. Q. I am 20 years of age, cur rently deferred in Class II-A. My deferment will terminate in June What will be my liability after the termination of my deferment? A If you are placed in I-A ana found to be acceptable for military service, you will be placed at the top of the available list, provided your number was reached while you were deferred. If your number was not reached while you were deferred, you will be placed in a lower priority group, whether you were deferred until June 1970 or for the entire year. I am a 22-year-old student classified II-S. Because of my high random sequence number, I wish to be classi fied in I-A rather than Il-b. CO-ED SUN.-MON.-TUES. ANTHONY PERKINS AND TUESDAY WELD How can I get a I-A classifi cation? You will remain in II-S as long as the reason for your deferment exists. Your local board was obligated classify you in II-S, since this was the lowest classifi cation for which you quali fied. However, if your local board receives evidence from your school that you have ceased to be a satisfac tory fulltime student be cause you have withdrawn, graduated, terminated your enrollment, or become a part-time student, then your local board will have a basis to re-classify you from II-S. My random sequence num ber is 262. I have heard that my chances of being called for induction during 1970 are slim. A. There is no way to de termine when any registrant in I-A, who is subject to random selection, will be called for induction. Q. I was ordered for induction Q. Q sequence number? No. You can determine your random sequence number from charts published in the newspapers and posted in local board offices. Q. What effect does the random selection method have on deferments? Local board deferment poli cies are not affected by the random sequence method of selecting registrants for in duction. When will there be another random sequence drawing? A. Plans call for a drawing to be held during each calendar year, but no date has been set for the drawing to be held during 1970. Has the random selection system caused any changes to be made in classification regulations, policies, and procedures? No. ^ . I am 19 years old and in I-A. If I stay in I-A all of 1970 and my random se quence number is not reach ed during 1970, how will it affect me? Q. A. Q- to report in December 1969. t * Sy^Tocal board postponed A. Whether you a^ I- Q. my induction until February 1970. Does the lottery affect me? A. No. Unless there is some reason for your being de ferred, you -should expect to report on the date in Febru ary that the local board ad vises you to report. The lot tery does not affect the status of any registrant who is ordered to report for in duction, when the original reporting date is prior to January 1, 1970 Q. Suppose I transfer for induc tion and the board I trans fer to orders me to report in January 1970? A. Your case is just like that of a postponed registrant. You will be expected to re port for induction as order ed by the transfer board. I am registered with a local board in North Carolina. Will my local board send me a notification of my random IN PRETTY POISON' IN COLOR A SUSPENSE THRILLER SIMILAR TO •‘PSYCHO" 0. some deferred classification, if your number is not reach ed you will be placed in a lower priority category. Q. I have just been placed in Class I-A, but will be 26 years of age in March 1970. If I request personal ap pearance and appeal, will I still be subject to induction if I reach age 26 before my appeal is settled? A. Yes, if your random se quence number is not reach ed prior to your 26th birth day. Q. I have a II-A classification which terminates in August 1970. I will be 26 years of age in May 1970. What hap pens to me when my occu pational deferment termi- nfttes? A. You will be placed in a low er category whether or not your number is reached, and you would be called only if policy changed. ^temS interest %r ZIL ^oiieae •Stuelenti
