The military draft lottery resumes in New York City, more than a month after the Draft Riots

More than a month after the unprecedented rioting in New York, the draft lottery was resumed in the city's Ninth Ward.  The Fifteenth Ward followed the next day, and the Sixteenth on Friday.  By the end of the week 3,075 names had been drawn.  Manhattan saw a healthy military presence but  there were no incidents reported during or after the drawings.

More than a thousand names are drawn in the resumed Draft Lottery in New York's Sixteenth Ward

More than a month after the unprecedented rioting in New York, the draft lottery was resumed in the city's Sixteenth Ward of the Sixth District, following its return earlier in the week to the Ninth and Fifteenth Wards. At 9 am, a blind, and blindfolded citizen, a Mr. Benson, drew the first name from the ward's revolving drum. A further 1,180 names were drawn by the end of the day, bringing the total for the week in the city to 3,075.  Regular troops stood guard around Manhattan but all went off without incident.  (By John Osborne)
