Show Dreadful Dicks Dilemmaor Draft-Dodgi- ng As An Art By TOM TIEDE E A) — Thirty years and one month ago Franklin Roosevelt gave the nation its first peacetime draft by stating that the Selective Service System was the “most efficient means for the mustering of our manpower” Ever since that efficiency has been tested to God knows what degree In World War II a man dodged the draft by secluding nimself in the attic of his home never coming down until several months after V-- J day During Korea at least one desperate chap got out by marrying a divorcee with 13 children But by all accounts Vietnam has produced the most ingenious evaders of the three decades “The things they do are fantastic” says a draft officer “If they used the same genius in military tactics we'd have won the war by now” Like the imaginative who showed up for his medical examination with a large tattoo on his the Army” arm It said It was judged a permanent obscenity and the lad was reclassified When he reached 28 (cut off age for draftees) the dodger had the “permanent” phrase surgically removed Or the New Yorker who visited his military examiner with full knowledge the Army would not take diabetics He was perfectly sound but he had stuffed dextrose under his fingernails and when he was asked to give a urine sample he sprinkled it amply with the sugar The chemical analysis of course led to a deferment The list is almost endless One man was recently discovered to be starving himself so he would stay below the minimum acceptable draft weight Others have gained as much as 50 to 100 pounds by overeating in order to stay above the maximum acceptable weight One East Coaster was refused induction because he could not bear to part with his pet snake “We're married" he said “I carry her with me wherever I go" And several chaps have been “ referred to psychiatric tests when it was discovered they wore bras panties “and cute little pumps” to induction centers Not all of the evasive methods work Maj William Sangemino of the New York Selective Service office says “We're not entirely dumb you know We can spot most fakes quickly Even our written examinations are coded in such a way that we can tell if someone is deliberately answering ques (N WASHINGTON— er S Changes Pledge man HAVERFORDWEST appeal” says the attorney “The courts are crowded and make procedural mistakes That helps And the draft boards are run by incompetents who goof up That helps too I remember a case I had where a draft board did not give a reason for rejecting my client’s claim for deferment I got six months delay for him out that” But if the legal manipulation does fail there is still the medical out Some doctors advise dodgers that there's no one so healthy that he can’t be an Army reject Ugly moles excessive dandruff venereal disease— there are more than 400 listed disabilities which can lead to a registrant's reclassification Even when the afflictions are of hang-na- il classifications antiwar doctors often write their diagnosis up in such a way as to the patient is a suggest terminal case In one instance a physician wrote a man’s draft board that he “suffered from chronic insomnia" neglecting to say the lad worked on a swing shift For all of it however the Selective Service insists the ingenuity of today's draft beater is still of no critical concern “These people are a social problem not a military one says Wilson “All of the copouts and liars we get still add up to less than one per cent of all 30000 men a month we call up" (Nun paper tultrptiu Am) says the couple can if they want only promise “so long as I am able" England by the Rev Angus Roderick no longer hare to vow to have and hold each other “till death do (UPI) —Couples married Form tions wrong” Ben Wilson at national headquarters in Washington adds: “I remember one boy who tried every trick in the book We didn't give up and finally got him I think he was rejected anyway for flat feet or something but my point is we're not easily beaten” Even so most draft men agree that Selective Service doesn’t mean efficiencySome obvious perfection dodgers do get off free Especially now when so many professional draft services are counseling available to the increasing numbers of draft avoiders (outright refusers have increased tenfold since 1965) Hundreds of sympathetic attorneys and physicians give today’s dodgers real muscle in their fight The lawyers are most important Through them young men can take the easiest way out of the draft —the legal loophole way Newly amended draft laws are complex and leaky A pacifist Washington attorney says: “With a good partisan lawyer almost anybody can stay out of the service” One tactic is to “delay and of Chronicled Newton Pratt Santa’s Fright Before Christmas ARfjlBi U Mlllf lUCIHaJi IroVi liy “It is wrong for couples us part” whose love has long died to be In a move to update the he'd to this solemn pledge” he marriage ceremony the clergy- -
