Bruce Eugene Boswell v. United States

BELLONI, District Judge:

Appellant was convicted of having refused to be inducted into the armed forces, in violation of 50 U.S.C. App. § 462(a). District court jurisdiction was founded on 18 U.S.C. § 8231 (1964), and our review is sought pursuant to 28 U.S. C. §§ 1291, 1294 (1964).

The record shows Boswell had been registered with the local board of the Selective Service System (Board) since 1961, had completed several questionnaires, taken a physical, received a student deferment, and been classified 1-A, all without ever claiming to be a conscientious objector or appealing his classification.
