Return Trip Hundreds Await Arrival __ The local draft board has been notified that no registrant of 18 to 25 was to be considered a "key man" in war industry unless his deferment was recommended by the State Director. The only way industrial workers from 18 through 25 can be deferred other than on designation by their state directors as "key men" is when they are engaged in an activity designated as deferable by Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, Selective Service Director. The new ruling follows an unprecedented March call that Saturday took 290 from Potter County to Erie for the pre-induction medical examination. According to an unofficial tabulation made by the Enterprise, more than 200 were found to be physically fit for military duty a much higher percentage than average. Rejections have been running close to 50. Official figures have not been disclosed. One of the men accepted Saturday was so eager to get on with his military career that he left immediately for induction without first notifying his wife. Hundreds of wives and children milled about in Coudersport Saturday night and early Sunday morn-ing waiting for the men to return, Late getting started Saturday morning they arrived about 3:30 Sunday morning.
