KU Ready For Defense Program
The University of Kansas is ready to assume those parts of the governor's Civil Defense program for Kansas that may best be assigned it, Chancellor Deane W. Malott said recently.
Two of the K.U. faculty already have been the Kansas representatives at national training courses given as foundation work for civil defense. The programs were sponsored by the National Security Resources board and the Atomic Energy commission.
Dr. Robert E. Bolinger, assistant professor of internal medicine, attended a week-long course on "Medical Aspects of Atomic Warfare." The course was in Birmingham at the University of Alabama medical school last May.
Dr. Frank E. Hoecker, professor of physics, attended and assisted in the presentation of parts of a five-week course in "Radiological Monitoring for Civilian Defense." The
'Read Your Mail,' Air Officer Warns
Syracuse (U.P.)-To the armed forces reservists who receive many pieces of military mail, Air Force Capt. Hanford Brogan has advised: "Read 'em all."
The western Kansas reserve officer found, to his extreme surprise, that he had applied for extended active duty.
"I guess I just didn't read the fine print on some form I thought was a routine confirmation of address," Captain Brogan said. "I must have checked opposite 'yes.'"
The Air Force notified him his "application" for active duty had been received and would be acted upon.

program was given at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago.
Both programs were "to train the teachers of the teachers." Dr. Hoecker and Dr. Bolinger may be called upon to plan and direct courses for other experts who would conduct civil defense training at state, county and city levels.
Dr. Hoecker, who has organized a new graduate program in biophysics at K.U., is one of the Middle West's leading authorities on radiation. He was a consultant at the Bikini atom bomb tests in 1946. Most of his studies in recent years have dealt with the effects and control of radiation on living tissue. He is now conducting research under a grant from the Atomic Energy commission.
Dr. Bolinger is now carrying a full-time teaching program at the KU. Medical Center in Kansas City. He was the top man in the
K. U. medical class of 1943. After service in the Army medical corps he returned to the Medical center for a 3-year residency in internal medicine and since has been on the faculty.
