The center in the old Sheridan school building at present has a capacity of 200, although there was one day recently when 315 men. draftees and enlistees, were examined.

The facilities that day were overtax ed, said the commanding officer. Captain Witte is of the opinion that with an Increase in personnel, it is possible that the Center could handle a daily average of 300 selectees. This increase would undoubtedly come according to the captain, should all servicemen be Inducted at the same place. Then the Navy and the Marine Corps would have representatives at the Center. Candidate for such branches of the service as the Medical Corps, Ordnance or Air Forces will probably have to be content to wait for clasM flcation until after they arrive at their reception center, regardless of which service they are inducted into, according to the captain.

There they will undoubtedly be given classifica tion tests and Intelligence quotient examinations before they are design a ted to any particular arm of the three major services. Opportunities for advancement, said the captain, will not be curtailed under the new system: instead, all selectees will be given an equal chance to succeed in the services, and ad vancement will be based almost en tirely on merit. Captain Witte announced that four men at the center have received promotions within the past week Private First Class Kenneth Jarbis, an X-ray technician, has been promoted to a sergeancy. He served at Fort Lee before coming to the center. His home is near Chicago, Others promoted are: Private First Class Paul L.

Hanley to corporal, Private First Class tVirgil Nubbe to corporal, and Private Robert J. Brotzman to private first class. Private Brotzman was inducted at the Allentown Center on Aug. 9. He had been a civilian employe there before his induction.

Following basic training at Fort George G. Meade, he was assigned to permanent duty as a member of the staff at the center. His home is in Bethlehem. The staff has been increased by four men within the past week. They are Corporal Murray Rubin, and Privates John Rausch, W.
