Show 266 Men Registered In Local Draft Sign-up; Patriotic Observance Held Quietly, without complaint or unpleasantness of any kind, 266 men and boys between the ages of 21 and 36 were registered for the U. S. military conscription, at the civic building in Pleasant Grove Wednesday, according to Mayor V. N. West who had charge of the voluntary service. In contrast to the spirit of evasion eva-sion which had been forecast for the registration, Pleasant Grove registrants were more than conscientious. con-scientious. Ira Nelson, who turned 36 years of age Wednesday, reported re-ported to make sure that he should not be guilty of dodging his responsibility. Of the 266 enrollees, only one was too ill to appear for registration. Jess Frampton, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ray Frampton, lay ill of pneumonia and officials went to his home to fill out his card. At noon, a concert by the Pleasant Pleas-ant Grove high school band, led by Irwin Jensen, did honor to the registrants. The list of voluntary draft registration agents Included the following: fol-lowing: Mayor V. N. West, assisted by Marshal Golden Peay; Mrs. Fern Hicks, Mrs. Marcella Peterson, Mrs. Pearl Deveraux, Karl Banks, Nathaniel Nath-aniel Loader, FJeroy West, Dan Peterson, Pe-terson, Joseph Walker, Guy Hill-man, Hill-man, Hyrum Robertson, Harold Wootton, Harvey Smith, Ezra Swenson, Ernest Jense and Duane Harper. n |
