    Birthday Club data used for Selective Service mailings

    Data purchased from Farrell's Birthday Club was used to send draft-registration warnings to young men. Public attention followed when a warning reached an address connected with a fictitious child created to obtain an additional membership. Farrell's blamed an unauthorized list-broker sale, and the government said it would discontinue use of the list.
