Sooner Or Later You'll Get Responsibility Like This. In The Navy It's Sooner.
You're maneuvering 445 feet of guided missile frigate through the navigational hazards and non-stop traffic of one of the world's busiest ports.
But you'll dock safely. Because you know your equipment. You know your men. And even when the responsibility weighs in at 3,600 tons...you're ready.
After four years of college, you're ready for more responsibility than most civilian jobs offer. Navy officers get the kind of job and responsibility they want,and they get it sooner.
Navy officers are part of the management team after 16 weeks. Instead of boot camp, officer candidates receive four months of leadership training. It's professional schooling designed to sharpen their

As their management abilities grow Navy officers can take advantage of advanced education and training in fields as varied as operations management, electronics,and systems analysis. In graduate school it would cost you thousands; in the Navy we pay you.
And the Navy pays well. The starting salary is $16,400 (more than most companies pay). And that's on top of a comprehensive benefits program that can include special duty pay. After four years, with regular promotions and pay increases, the salary is up to as much as $29,800.

Navy Officers Get Responsibility Fast.
KU Police Officer Kevin Johnson clocked the speed of passing traffic from his patrol car in front of Green Hall yesterday.

"They're invulrable," Denny said. "With radar you don't have to pace speeders or clock drivers."
James Denney, KU's director of police, said radar guns allowed police to clock speeders and detectives.

Police have used radar for the last 30 years to detect and identify speeding motorists. But a dilemma has surfaced recently about the accuracy of radar and its use as evidence in court.
IN 1 A 797 speeding case in Florida, a Dade County judge refused to allow radar readings to be used.
Judge Alfred Neshitt found that radar alone was too unreliable to sustain a speeding conviction. He dismissed 80 radar cases after the defense produced evidence that showed police radar clocking a tree at 84 mph and a house at 30 mph.
Nesbitt threw the cazes out because of the
radar is highly accurate," Greneker said. "And it is better than having a cigar-chomping sheriff tell you how fast you were going."
The term radar comes from the phrase "radio detection and ranging." Radar guns operate on the Doppler effect by sending out a continuous radar beam with a specific modulation. The radar beams bounce off moving vehicles and back to an antenna.
Depending on the car's direction, the radar beam is bounced back either compressed or stretched. The car's speed is determined by the distance traveled and the speed of the original beam and the bounced reflection.
Stationary radar units emit only one radar signal. Moving-mode radar emits a low radar signal that monitors the patrol car's speed and a high signal that calculates the target vehicle's speed. The patrol car's speed is subtracted from the target vehicle's speed and then displayed.
In a report written after the tests, the bureau failed to adopt any official standards, but it did make several recommendations that states have used when setting their standards.
IN 1977, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration conducted tests in conjunction with the National Bureau of Standards on six vehicles. The tests were carried out by police departments throughout the country.
Some states have set up stringent controls on the manufacturing of radar units and on the

s officers to receive radar training before operating radar units.
Maj. Stuart Elliott of the Kansas Highway Patrol said that the state of Kansas did not require standards on radar usage, but that the Highway Patrol did.
The Highway Patrol requires its officers to go through 50 hours of training before operating radar units. The officers are taught how to use them to visually estimate the speed of vehicles.
"Regular officers have a considerable amount of training before we allow them to use radar."
DENNEY SAID that all of KU's officers had been trained by a representative from Kustom Electronics, manufacturers of KU's only radar unit.
"I constantly amazed at police departments that get radar and don't train officers to use them."
Jerry Miller, customer services representative of Kustom Electronics of Channie, one of the nation's two largest manufacturers of radar equipment, said the radar had never been upheld by Kansas courts.
Neither Elliott nor Denney could recall any speeding cases successfully challenging radar's accuracy in Kansas. Each said his department's move toove more to prevent most trials involving radar.
Elliott said if a radar case had ever been See RADAR page 5
