The new priority-status forcej is slated to include 89,000 National Guardsmen and 61,000 from the organized Army reserve. This compares with 119,000 Guardsmen and 31.000 reservists in the present "select force," which it will replace.

The changeover is expected May all first called up if there is a decision to use reserves in Vietnam. The present force was formed two years ago, and apparently will end its priority tour without seeing active service. With Defense Secretary Robert S.

The there births births figures showed 29.6 illegitimate live and stale were out of every 1,000 in 1940 in Texas 78.8 in 1966. The illegitimacy rate was 52.2 per 1,000 in 1960. The illegitimacy rate among Negroes was higher than among Negro births was illegitimate in 1966 in the state.
