(d) A postponement of induction shall not render invalid the Order to Report for Induction (SSS Form No. 252) which has been issued to the registrant but shall operate only to postpone the reporting date and the registrant shall report on the new date without having issued to him a new Order to Report for Induction (SSS Form No. 252). § 632.2 Postponement of induction; high school students. (a) Any person who, while satisfactorily pursuing a full-time course of instruction at a high school or similar institution of learning, is ordered to report for induction prior to his graduation from such school or institution, shall, upon the facts being presented to the local board, have his induction postponed (1) until the time of his graduation therefrom, or (2) until he attains the twentieth anniversary of his birth, or (3) until he ceases satisfactorily to pursue such course of instruction, whichever is the earliest.

All of the records of such registrant prepared in the manner provided in subparagraph (2) of paragraph (a) of this section shall be transmitted to the local board to which such registrant is transferred for induction in the manner and at the time provided in § 632.9. TRANSFER FOR INDUCTION § 632.9 Certain registrants may request transfer for induction. (a) Any registrant who is so far from his own local board that reporting to his own local board for induction would be a hardship may, subject to the provisions of this section, be transferred for induction to the local board having jurisdiction of the area in which he is at that time located. Application for such transfer may be made by the registrant at the time he receives his Order to Report for Induction (SSS Form No. 252). (b) Any such registrant desiring to be so transferred shall immediately report to the local board having jurisdiction of the area in which he is at that time located, present his Order to Report for Induction (SSS Form No. 252), and complete, in quintuplicate, the request portion of Request for Transfer for Delivery (SSS Form No. 260). (c) The local board with which such registrant files such request shall investigate the circumstances of the registrant's absence from his own local board area. If it finds that he does not have a good reason for his absence, it shall endorse its disapproval upon his request, mail the original thereof to the registrant's own local board, mail a copy to the registrant, and file one of the remaining copies. Such registrant shall then be required to report in accordance with the Order to Report for Induction (SSS Form No. 252) of his own local board. (d) If the local board with which the registrant files such request finds that he has a good reason for his absence from his own local board area and that he is so far from his own local board area that it would be a hardship for him to return to his own local board area for induction, it shall endorse its approval upon his request, mail the original and two copies by air mail (unless ordinary mail is as expeditious) to the registrant's own local board, mail a copy to the registrant, and file the remaining copy. When necessary for the accomplishment of the early induction of the registrant, the local board with which the registrant files his request may telegraph the registrant's own local board notifying it of the approval of the registrant's application for such transfer and requesting that the necessary records of the registrant be immediately forwarded to the local board of transfer. In such instances, the local board of transfer shall confirm the telegram by immediately mailing the original and two copies of the Request for Transfer for Delivery (SSS Form No. 260), with the endorsement of approval thereon, to the registrant's own local board. (e) When the registrant's own local board receives the approved Request for Transfer for Delivery (SSS Form No. 260), or receives a telegraphic approval of a request for transfer as provided in paragraph (d) of this section, it shall: (1) Immediately complete on the original of the Request for Transfer for Delivery (SSS Form No. 260) the order transferring the registrant for induction.

If possible, the transferred registrant shall be delivered for induction with the next call on the local board to which he has been transferred, but if there is to be no such call at an early date, it shall deliver such transferred registrant specially whenever the joint examining and induction station is receiving men. When the local board of transfer determines to deliver such transferred registrant specially, it shall notify its State Director of Selective Service and request that the necessary arrangements be made for the time and place at which such transferred registrant may be delivered specially.

When a delinquent who has not registered reports or is brought before a local board, he shall be registered and the local board at which he registers shall enter on line 2 of his Registration Card (SSS Form No. 1) an address within the jurisdiction of such local board. As soon as possible after his registration, the local board shall classify him as provided in § 642.12. § 642.12 Classification of registrant delinquent. Any delinquent registrant between the ages of 19 and 26 may be classified in or reclassified into Class I-A or Class I-A-OI, whichever is applicable, regardless of other circumstances: Provided, that a delinquent registrant in Class I-C who, after completion of any period of active service in the armed forces of the United States under the provisions of the Selective Service Act of 1948, has been separated from the armed forces or transferred to a reserve component thereof may not be classified in or reclassified into Class I-A or Class I-A-O, under this section unless his classification out of Class I-C is specifically authorized by the Director of Selective Service. § 642.13 Certain delinquents to be ordered to report for induction. (a) The local board shall order each delinquent registrant between the ages of 19 and 26 who is classified in or reclassified into Class I-A or Class I-A-O to report for induction in the manner provided in § 631.7 of this chapter unless (1) it has already done so, or (2) pursuant to a written request of the United States Attorney, the local board determines not to order such registrant to report for induction. § 642.14 Personal appearance, reopening, and appeal.

Regardless of the time when or the circumstances under which a registrant fails or has failed to report for induction pursuant to an Order to Report for Induction (SSS Form No. 252) or pursuant to an Order for Transferred Man to Report for Induction (SSS Form No. 253) it shall thereafter be his continuing duty from day to day to report for induction to his own local board, and to each local board whose area he enters or in whose area he remains. DELIVERY OF DELINQUENT REGISTRANTS § 642.21 Procedure. (a) If a delinquent registrant reports to or is brought before a local board other than his own local board, the local board to which he reports or before which he is brought shall advise his own local board by telegram or other expeditious means that the delinquent has reported to or has been brought before such local board and that he will be inducted if it is satisfactory to his own local board. The registrant's own local board shall reply by telegram or other expeditious means. (b) If the registrant's own local board advises or if it is ascertained from the United States Department of Justice that the registrant is delinquent because he has failed to respond to an Order to Report for Induction (SSS Form No. 252) or an Order for Transferred Man to Report for Induction (SSS Form No. 253), the delinquent shall be delivered for induction and the local board to which the registrant has reported or before which he has been brought shall prepare such papers as may be necessary in order to effect such induction and forward copies thereof to the registrant's own local board. The induction of such a registrant shall be reported to the registrant's own local board in the same manner as if the registrant had been transferred for delivery to the local board from which such registrant was inducted. (c) If the registrant's own local board advises that no Order to Report for Induction (SSS Form No. 252) or Order for Transferred Man to Report for Induction (SSS Form No. 253) ahs been issued to such registrant or that the registrant is no longer a delinquent, it shall advise the local board before which the registrant has appeared or has been brought of the action to be taken with reference to such registrant. MEN IN CUSTODY § 642.31 Completing records of man liable for training and service. (a) Provided they are required and have not already been accomplished, the following steps shall be taken in connection with every man who has registered or who is required to register under the provisions of Title I of the Selective Service Act of 1948 immediately upon his reporting to or being brought before a local board or immediately upon his being taken into custody or his being placed in confinement.

(3) He shall complete his Special Form for Conscientious Objector (SSS Form No. 150), when applicable. (4) He shall complete all other necessary forms. (5) He may be physically examined. (b) If such a man is unable or refuses to fill out any form in the manner required by paragraph (a) of this section, such form shall be filled out by a member or clerk of a local board or the superintendent, warden, or other law enforcement official from information gained by interviewing the delinquent and from other sources. (c) If the signature of such man is required upon any form after it is filed out and he is unable or refuses to sign his name or make his mark upon any such form, a member or clerk of a local board or the superintendent, warden, or other law enforcement official shall sign such man's name and indicate that he has done so by signing his own name beneath the name of such man. The act of a member or clerk of a local board, or of the superintendent, warden, or other law enforcement official in so doing shall have the same force and effect as if such man had signed his name to such form. § 642.32 Obligation of man in custody, confinement, or imprisonment. No man is relieved from complying with the selective service law during the time he is in custody, confinement, or imprisonment. He shall perform the duties and shall be accorded the rights and privileges of all registrants. § 642.33 Obligation of man after release from custody, confinement or imprisonment. When a man is released from custody, confinement, or imprisonment, he shall immediately advise his local board of that fact and shall perform the duties and be accorded the rights and privileges of all registrants.

RECORDS AND REPORTS OF DELINQUENTS § 642.41 Report of delinquent to United States Attorney. (a) Every registrant who fails to comply with an Order to Report for Induction (SSS Form No. 252) or an Order for Transferred Man to Report for Induction (SSS Form No. 253) shall be reported promptly to the United States Attorney on Delinquent Registrant Report (SSS Form No. 301); provided, that if the local board believes by reasonable effort it may be able t locate the registrant and secure his compliance, it may delay the mailing of such Delinquent Registrant Report (SSS Form No. 301) for a period not in excess of 30 days. A copy of such Delinquent Registrant Report (SSS Form No. 301) shall be place in the delinquent's Cover Sheet (SSS Form No. 101). (b) In endeavoring to locate and to secure the compliance of a delinquent prior to reporting him to the United States Attorney the local board should contact the delinquent and the "employer" or "person who will always know" the delinquent's address, as shown on the Registration Card (SSS Form No. 1), or any other person likely to know his whereabouts. The local board may enlist the aid of local and State police officials or any other public or private agencies it deems advisable. In no event shall the local board order or participate in the arrest of a delinquent. (c) Whenever the local board suspects a person, other than one of its own registrants, of being a delinquent, it shall, upon its own motion or upon request of the United States Attorney, advise such person by letter that he is suspected of being a delinquent and directing him to submit to the local board evidence concerning his selective service. It shall be the duty of the person to whom such a letter is mailed to present such evidence to the local board and, if directed to do so, to appear personally before the local board. Unless the local board is convinced that such person is not delinquent, it shall report the facts to the United States Attorney by letter. § 642.42 Local Board action subsequent to reporting a delinquent to United States Attorney.
