DRAFT LIST
IS COMPLETE
LAST NAMES TODAY.
County Has 1696 Regular
Numbers; Men Taking
Physical Exams

The Courier-Tribune has been printing the official draft order list of numbers and names, as a matter of public service, a limited section at a time. The list is completed in today’s paper.
The county has 1696 names on its regular list. In the government’s drawing of lots, the last man in the county whose name will be called is Thomas Patrick Graney of northeast of Seneca.
Since the regular numbers were drawn, two other men, Herman John Sunneberg and Francis Paul Sunnenberg have been transferred to the Nemaha county list from Marshall county, since their legal residence is this county. Numbers were drawn for them. To save revision of the regular list, Herman Sunnenberg is listed as No. 145A, his number to follow the regular No. 145 ; Francis Sunneberg becomes No. 312 A, next in order after the regular 312.
Men listed in class No. 1A are being given medical examination, in turn. The government is “pretty fussy” in its standards and acting in accordance doctors found only 11 of the first 19 men examined were completely fit. Six others were dropped to class 1-B аs fit for limited service; two to Class 4−F as physically disqualified.
The draft order listing is completed below:
