Draft Card Burner

A six-year sentence for burning a draft card, which the U.S. Supreme Court had upheld, was revoked by District Judge Andrew A. Caffrey of Boston yesterday because 21-year-old David P. O'Brien of Cambridge had had a "change of attitude." Caffrey put O'Brien, who served two months in federal prison, on probation for three years, provided he accepts civilian work in a hospital in lieu of military service.
