Calling Alaskans
To The Colors
Alaskan registration day un
der the Selective Service Act is
today, a red letter day on the
calendar for thousands of young
men.
With keen anticipation, they
have been looking forward to
the day and to the prospect of
being c3lLed into training that
will take them away from their
accustomed vocations for a long
period.
To (juch as will b? called it
mearis an adjustment in their af
fairs such as seldom falls to the
lot of the average American, but
it is certain the response will be
made by every eligible Alaskan
as promptly as humanly possible
and with a full sense of the du
ties and responsibilities involved.
Upon those in remote localities
registration imposes no little in
convenience. Men on the trapline
prospecting in localities far from
the main enters, or perhaps fish
ii'g or pursuing some vocation in
distant camps will have to travel
far, and perhaps be delayed for
days in reaching the registration
places.
Unfortunately, the advance no
tices have not been sent out in
time to allow ample notice to
many isolated eligibles, and this
; has caused no little concern on
I their part.
Advices to the effect registra
tions may be made at such plac
es as were designated as voting
; places for th various precincts
are welcomed as obviating the
! necessity of traveling to the main
centers.
Even at this some will find
long journeys awaiting them and
it is expected that many days
will lapse in getting the neces
i sary registration material to the
! outlying points and getting the
records back to the divisional
and territorial centers.
This has been exempEfied in
the territorial elections. It is us
i ually 60 days ans som times long
’ er before all election returns are
receives in Nome following a
■ territorial election.
So those in charge of the draft
! making due allowance for those
in the r:mote localities, doubt
less will not be harsh on regis- j
trants who are delayed by cir- j
cumstances beyond their control. |

Big, Tough
City Editor
■■ ■
ATLANTA, Jan. — As night
'city editor of the Atlanta Consti
tution, 36-year-old Lee Fuhrman
is tough, strel-nerved.
Nothing ruffles him. Fires rage,
trains wreck, gunmen battle po
licemen, planes crash—but Fuhr
man remains calm, barks out or
j ders to reporters and photograph
ers.
, But yesterday Fuhrman be
came a father.
| He took up the vigil at a hos
pital, psc: d the floor, ruffled mag
azines. Finally, after an indefinite
j age, a nurse stuck her head out
i of the door to tell him he had a
daughter.
Fuhrman rose from a chair,
swayed momentarily, and quiet
ly crumpled to the floor in a
swoon.
