Just how high up the list the draft will reach may vary considerably from one local draft board to another. But men whose birthdays lie in d of the dates the first as drjjvn are almost certain to be drafted. Those drawn in the middle may be uncertain for up to a year-un- til they receive a draft notice, or until the year ends without one. d Those in the last are now virtually certain they will not be called in 1970. And the chances are even smaller they would be called in a fu- form of induction during World War II. The previous system, which included a long list of deferments, was criticized because it left young men uncertain about their fate for as long as seven years. The new lottery system is designed to reduce this period of uncertainty to one year. The last time the draft was based on a lottery was in 1942.
