WEATHER DELAYS THEIR DEPARTURE

Fifty-seven selectees from local draft board No. 2 gathered at the Jefferson Transportation company station Tuesday morning at 1 o’clock, but the weather continued to be severe, and the trip to the reception center at Camp Dodge was postponed until 8 o’clock.

That was where W. D. Lattimer and other members took over in behalf of the Citizen’s Victory Committee and found places for the boys to sleep. Some were sent to the Hotel Hanford, some were quartered in private homes. Tuesday morning, fortified by a breakfast at the bus station, provided by the draft board and arranged by Lattimer, the group got under way.

They are: . . . Harold Frazier . . .
