TEN YOUNG MEN LEFT FOR CAMP TAYLOR TODAY
Ten draftees left Rensselaer this morning for Camp Taylor, Ky., to begin an intensive training period, which is to fit them for duties oversea. The conscription board found more men on hand this morning prepared to go than was needed and was forced to make some last minute changes. Some farmer boys who had previously been exempted for agricultural reasons were on hand and asserted their willingness to go, and, since their order numbers came ahead of some of those who had been notified to leave, their requests were granted. The following were the ten finally selected to go: George Donnelly, Guy Peek, Paul Karr, Joseph Reeve, Jesse Grimm, Leslie Zellars, Herbert Bozelle, Lonnie Dowell, Horace Charais and Frank Boes. The revised list of those to leave April 3 has not been completed.
