MONITOR CLASS
BEGINS JAN. 30
The first meeting of the
| class for radiological monitors
j was held Tuesday. Jan. 22, at
j the Palmer high school, accord
j ing to James Schubin, radiolo
gical officer for the Palmer civ
j il defense district.
j The class will start on Jan.
30 and will run five weeks,
Schubin said. Sessions will be
held Wednesday evenings at
the high school from 7:30 to
0:30 p.m. in Room 16.
The course is designed to
train radiological instrument
operators in the techniques of
surveying fallout a n d in pro
tecting themselves from radia
tion injury, the radiological
officer stated.
Many individuals have mis
| understood the role of women
in monitoring, according to
1 Schubin. “There is nothing
strenuous or difficult in moni
toring. In the event of war,
trained women monitors can
relieve men for other heavier
or more strenuous tasks.”
All persons who are inter
ested in class participation and
were not at the Jan. 22 meeting
should contact Schubin at the
Experiment Station by tomor
row, Jan. 25.
Schubin noted that there has
been some confusion about the
relationship of this course to
Walter Ward’s class on nuclear
survival. Ward’s course covers
general information about the
effects of nuclear warfare and
the methods of preparation for
and protection against these
effects. Schubin explained.
