Board Assigns Serial Numbers to 131 New ‘21’ers’
Isabella August Quota Not Determined…Expected to Be Light
Thursday, July 10, 1941
One hundred and thirty-one youths of Isabella county registered on July 1, according to information furnished by local draft board officials, Wednesday, July 9, the date established by national headquarters, as the date that all registration cards would be shuffled and serial numbered.
The registration was ordered by the president and more than a million youths who had attained the age of 21 years since October 16, 1941, complied with the law. Isabella county’s total number of registrants for the occasion was 131.
Wednesday afternoon, the board members assigned the serial numbers to these youths. All numbers being preceded by the letter “S”, was a uniform identification used throughout the nation. On a day fixed by the Director of Selective Service, a second National lottery will be held in Washington. A set of serial numbers, each preceded by the letter, “S”, from “S-1” to include the largest number used by any local board in assigning serial numbers to melon-colored cards, will be drawn by lot. The list of these “S” serial numbers arranged in the order drawn in the second lottery will be called the “Second National Master List” and will be used exclusively in assigning sequence numbers and as a basis for assigning order numbers to men properly registered on the melon-colored registration cards.
It is pointed out that the order numbers which have been assigned to registrants who were registered before July 1, 1941, will not be changed.
Order numbers of the newly registered men will be inserted among the order numbers of the old registrants, starting from a Key Number, which in Isabella county’s case is No. 1087, the number of the last registrant who was inducted into service of the army, unvoluntarily. Complete information concerning the exact position of the new registrants of Isabella will not be available for several days, officials point out, as the date for national lottery has not been established.
