Nongovernment, Army- oriented organizations and National Guard interests have been lobbying for a two-year extension, as sought by the administration. Sources within these groups reported that as of last week UNMATCHED Eggs and poultry at St.

Louis ST. LOUIS (AP) Eggs, consumer grades: A large 2432, A medium 20-28, A small 12-18 large 20-28. Eggs, wholesale grades: A large 21-23, standard, 19-20, medium 16-17, unclassified 1617, pullet 12-31, peewees 9. Hens: heavy (6 Ibs and over) 10; medium (5-6 Ibs) leghorns 2. Ready-to-cook broilers and fryers 26.25-27.00 for this week's delivery.

Call No. 477 there were 45 senators favoring extension, 45 opposed and 10 undecided. The prospects for draft extension have been clouded because the issue is intertwined with opposition to the Vietnam war and antiwar senators are preparing a series of amendments, including a move sponsored by Sen. Mark Hatfield, to end the draft on June 30. John Stennis, chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, Sunday criticized antiwar senators, for trying to use the draft extension bill as a vehicle for their Vietnam opposition.

Stennis said he is not concerned a threatened fillibuster will prevent Senate action on the two-year draft extension legislation already passed by the House. Calling the all-volunteer idea "a flight from reality," Stennis also opposed a compromise that would limit the draft extension to one year. Some administration strategists say that a a year ceiling on draft calls, written into the bill by the Stennis committee, will permit some undecided senators to vote for the two- year extension.
