The next chance for college students to ward off the old bogey draft will come on December 4, Selective Service Director General Lewis B. Hershey announced recently.
Application forms will be available at local draft boards and at Phillips Brooks House after October 1. They must be postmarked no later than midnight November 1.
The three tests given so far have drawn some 413,395 students. Another 85,000 are expected to take the next series on December 4 and April 23.
Under existing regulations a local board may consider a student for determent if he has made a grade of 70 or more on the qualification test or maintains standing in a specified portion of the male members of his class, ranging from the upper half of the freshman class to the upper three-fourths of the junior class.
