m. Monday through Saturday, clerks still were busy early Sunday night tabulating re gistrations for the military draft, Clerk George McCormack said returns have not been received from outlying registration sites and official figures are not avail able, but he estimated that at least 16,000 county youths signed in the communities covered by three boards here and one in Carbon dale. He based his prediction on the belief that each of the four boards registered about 4,000 men. Draft Board 80 embraces Taylor and the Ablngtons; 81 covers Central City and 82 spans sections of, Taylor and the area north to Throop. Board 79, with headquarters in Carbondale, has Up' Valley communities and stretches south to the Mid-Valley.
Final day registrations Saturday were extremely light. Less than 300 enrolled in Scranton Boards did not operate school registration sites in other communities. With the bulk of the registration out of the way, clerks now will devote their time to sending questionoires to registrants and classification of the signees. Registration of men will be continuing process, sftice youths reaching the age of 18 must enrol within five days after their birthday, Men who failed to register will be open to prosecution by Fed eral authorities unles they visit their draft board and get their names on the registration lists. Men 18 to 25 were supposed to register, it is believed that many men, veterans or married, misunderstood the regulations and did not sign.

Returning clocks to normal is tedious process. The electrically-operated timepieces require turning the hour hand ahead 11 times to get back to EST. Watches or alarm clocks can be turned back an hour to reach the same goal. The mammoth Court House Square four-faced clock will entail work that requires an abundance of patience. The pendulum, a long tongue of steel that extends below the tower for a distance of two and a half floors, is the main cog in the project.
Employes of Roger Brothers bring the pendulum to a stop and keep it halted for 11 hours. It is then started on EST. The change will provide more slumber for the entire population. The clock will go back 60 minutes while asleep which gives one and all one more hour to dream. The change from EDT to EST also makes next Sunday a 25-hour day.
