Relax, Draftees, Uncle Sam Grants Three Months Grace .Students who signed for the draft in the February 16 registra tion have been given assurance by Selective Service officials that they need not .expect a call to service before the middle of May, or at leait two months after the March 17 lottery. Before the new registrants will be called, draft headquarters an nounced, the army will continue to • draw on the reservoir of 1-A men remaining from the first two reg istrations, and will •reclassify other old registrants on the basis of the• recently relaxed standards for teeth and eyesight. Since no rule changes in regard to deferment of students have been reported, defernients will be grant ed, as before, solely at the discre tion of the local boards. The re commendations of Brig. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, director of Selective Service, that more deferments be allowed in such fields as agricul ture, medicine, and industry to prevent. shortage of necessary workers are not binding on he lo cal board officials. rah T a n r 'A' Vol. 38—No. 97 Lion Five Upsets West Virginia British Tars, Veterans At Fullness, Speed Of By LARRY CHERVENAK I speiet yesterday with two rea sons 'why "there will always be an Englcnd."

Their ship, stationed at Dunkirk at that time, was being filled with eVaeuees. While the gun crew that Tilston headed was' helping cover the soldiers' retreat, a Nazi dive bomber strafed the ship's •deck. Tilston was the only member of his crew to - remain alive, so three new assistants were iatssignee to help him man the gun. One of these "subs" was McAdam. A note of awe filled both sail ors' voices when they mentioned anything about the hell that was Dunkirk. At the dinner table, however, they recalled their ex periences since then. They told of the constant bomber and mine meneTe', during their nine months of patrol duty in the English (Continued on Page Two) Historical.
