Korean Atomic Program Is Concern Of KU Student
Two close friends, thousands of miles from home, sat in an office of the radioactive isotopes laboratory at KU chatting with an American about atomic energy.
One of the men, Joon Taik Han, recently arrived in this country to study in KU's graduate program in radiation biophysics. He had been appointed by President Syngman Rhee to be a member of the Korean Atomic Energy Commission set to begin operation next year after the installation of an atomic pile, or nuclear reactor.

The other man was Chong Jin Lee, graduate student and research assistant in biochemistry, who had persuaded his friend, Han, to come to KU. Both are former professors at Seoul University.
Although he has been in America only 15 months, Lee speaks good English. He acted as translator for Han, who understands and writes the language, but finds expression difficult. And this was a time he wanted to make himself understood.
He said the reactor will first be used for basic research—to learn how atomic energy will help agricultural South Korea. The next step will be to apply the knowledge in supplying Korea with electric power to be used in industry, medicine and agriculture.
What concerned the Korean scientist was that the forming of a Korean Atomic Energy Commission might be taken as a sign that nation is going into the business of making atom bombs and other nuclear weapons.
"That definitely is not the case," Han asserted.
Scabbard and Blade is a national military honor society, with chapters at 131 colleges and universities.
Professors At Seoul
University ROTC departments have many organizations, but only one, Scabbard and Blade, includes Army, Navy, and Air Force Cadets.
Han explained that the atomic pile will produce atomic energy from
Honor Group Part Of ROTC
The society strives to raise the standard of military education in colleges and universities; to promote closer relationship of their military departments; to encourage essential qualities of efficient officers, and to promote friendship among the cadet officers.
Membership is by election. Candidates are selected by commanding officers and staff advisers of the three services. Active members are chosen from outstanding cadet officers in the advanced course.
At KU Scabbard and Blade will sponsor the annual Military Ball on Dec. 8 and will be in charge of a commencement ceremony for the three service branches in June.
Scabbard and Blade has four officers, Capt. Richard A. Butler, Lawrence senior; 1st Lt. Robert A. Cooper, Springfield, Mo., senior; 2nd Lt. Max Mardick, Iola senior, and 1st Sgt. John L. Hyson, Ottawa senior.
There are three staff advisers, Maj. Delbert L. Townsend, Army; Lt. Cmdr. Ralph W. Corson, Navy, and Maj. Herbert C. Birkhead, Air Force.
Engineering Course Adds Liberal Arts
KINGSTON, R.I.-(IP) -Broadening of the engineering curricula at the University of Rhode Island has been approved by the College of Engineering faculty. In line with recommendations of the American Society for Engineering Education, the university will also place more stress on certain studies in science, especially in modern physics.
The revised curricula stipulate required electives which would result in from 18 to 24 credits of liberal arts subjects or more than one semester's work of the 4-year degree program. "Of the so-called liberal studies in the humanistic-social field, at least a half year may be selected from the courses in history, economics, political science, literature, sociology, philosophy, psychology, foreign languages or fine arts," said Dean T. Stephen Crawford of the Engineering College.

uranium. That energy will be converted to heat energy and then to electric power.
BETHLEHEM, Pa.—(IP)—Grades based on the "performance" instead of on a numerical average have been approved by the faculty of Moravian College. Under the new grading system, the "alphabet grade" policy will be retained, but the basis for the grades will be the performance of the student as determined by his professor.
To Set Up Rules
The professor will no longer be bound to follow a strict plan. For example, in some courses an average of "50" might be considered passing while in others an average of "95" may be necessary for an "A."
Other members of the future Atomic Energy Commission (the act creating the commission is still under consideration by the Korean Assembly) were sent to study at the International School of Nuclear Science and Engineering at the Argonne Laboratories, Lemont, Ill., and at the Universities of North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Chicago.
The result expected is that in courses elementary to a major field or necessary as basic credits toward graduation, a high percentage of the final marks will fall into the "C" or average rating while a much lower percentage will fall into either extreme—the "A" or the "F." In advanced courses a much higher concentration of "A" and "B" is anticipated.
