_ THE ROANOKE RAPIDS _ SECTION "B" DIAL R-326 ALL DEP’TS THURSDAY, JUNE 19, 1941 SECTION B—PAGE 1 v ALL MEN BECOMING 21 SINCE OCT. 1, AFFECTED BY LAW Boards Will Regis ter Men On July 1 Every man in the State of North Carolina who has attained the 21st anniversary of the day of his birth since October 16, 1940 (with a few exceptions noted below), must register with his local Selective Service board on July 1, State Director J. Van B. Metts stated today. Men required to register in this second registration are those who were born on or between October 17, 1919, and July 1, 1920. Aliens, as well as American citi zens, who become 21 years of age before midnight July 1, 1941, must register, Director Metts em phasized. He also pointed out that aliens between the ages of 21 and 36 years, who have come to the United States since the first registration on October 16, 1940 and have not yet regis tered, must register on July 1. Special arrangements will be made by local boards to register men who cannot appear before the local board because of illness or incapacity. Men subject to reg istration who are inmates of asy lums, jails, penitentiaries, or other similar institutions on July 1 will be registered by the warden on the day they leave the institution. Men subject to registration on July 1 who are away from home and cannot, except at great expense and inconvenience, return to their own local boards to register, may appear before the nearest local bo ard and will be registered there. Such men should be cautioned, however, to give their permanent addresses when registering, Gen eral Metts said. Men who are. required to register on July 1 and fail to do so will subject themselves to severe pen alties, including imprisonment for not more than five years or a fine of not more than $10,000.00 or both fine and imprisonment, General Metts emphasized. The only men within the age limits who are not required to reg iofor* oro tho fnllmirinff* Commissioned officers, warrant officers, pay clerks, and enlisted men of the Regular Army, the Navy, the Marine Corps, the Coast Guard, the Coast and Geodetic Sur vey, the Public Health Service, the federally recognized active Nation al Guard, the Officers’ Reserve Corps, the Regular Army Reserve, the Enlisted Reserve Corps, the Naval Reserve, and the Marine Corps Reserve; cadets, United States Military Academy; midship men, United States Naval Acad emy; cadets, United States Coast Guard Academy; men who have beeiraccepted for admittance (com mencing with the academic year next succeeding such acceptance) to the United States Military Acad emy as cadets, to the United States Naval Academy as midshipmen, or to the United States Coast Guard Academy as cadets, but only dur ing the continuance of such ac ceptance, cadets of the advanced tm. | course, senior division, Reserve Of ficers’ Training Corps or Naval Re serve Officers’ Training Corps; members of the Coast Guard Re serve, other than temporary mem bers; and diplomatic representa tives, technical attaches of foreign embassies and legations, consuls general, consuls, vice consuls, and consular agents of foreign coun tries, residing in the United States, who are not citizens of the United States, and who have not declared their intention to become citizens of the United States. INFORMATION Men who will register on July 1, 1941, were cautioned today by General J. Van B. Metts, State Director of Selective Service, to be careful to give to the registrar who registers them correct infor mation as to the place of their permanent residence. The name of the township, county and state must be stated specifically and must be paced on line 2 of the registration card. It is most im portant that men registering be careful to give the correct lo cation of their residence because the place of residence placed on line 2 of the registration card will determine the local board which will have jurisdiction over them, General Metts emphasized. On the first registration day many registrants gave confusing information, and this resulted in their registration cards often be ing assigned to the wrong local board. This resulted in many complications and Selective Service agencies were subjected to un reasonable worry and trouble transferring cards. The new Selec ive Service Regulations, prepared for the July 1, 1941, registration, provide that there will be no fu ture transfer of cards. The place of residence of the registrant, which will appear on line 2 of the registration card, will once and for all determine the local board which has control over the regis trant. A place is provided for the new registration card for regis trants to indicate the dace of resi dence and the mailing address. The mailing address is not so important as the residence address, because the mailing address may be chang ed as often as the registrant es tablishes a new address. But the place of residence, to be indicated on line 2 of the registration card, will never be changed, and the original card will be assigned to the local board having jurisdiction over the area of the residence address. The new Regulations provide that the registrant shall be permitted to determine what place he desires to give as his residence when he does not reside in one place all the time, but once that election is made and is stated on registration day and is recorded on the registration card, it may never be changed thereafter. --- i ■ ■ ■' Allen - Campbell The Plymouth Methodist Church was the scene ot a lovely wedding Friday afternoon, June 6th, at 4 o’clock, when Miss Elizabeth Campbell became the bride of Randolph Johnston Allen, with the pastor, the Rev.
