Henry Bowles can't believe how many classmates at Northwestern
University passed the word along as gospel in the days before last
month's election.
"It's just astounding," says Bowles, 20, a junior and president of the
College Republicans on the Evanston campus. "They would say, 'Well,
you know Bush really is going to reinstate the draft.'
"I would say, 'No, that would be political suicide, and here is why it
won't happen.'"
Among college and some high school students and on the Internet, it is
the hot topic, the buzz -- the rumor that won't go away.
