NEVILLE, District Judge.

As of June 23, 1969, plaintiff Francis LeRoy McLain, a selective service registrant, had been denied conscientious objector classification by his local Selective Service Board and finally by action of the Presidential Appeal Board. Thereafter on August 20, 1969 his local draft board mailed him an Order to Report for Induction.'
