Shay, Director Phone 385-2404 Radiological Monitoring One of the m o s t vital branches of our civil defense organization is that of radiological monitoring. After a nuclear attack it would be necessary to have trained monitoii' who would leave their shelters wearing protective clothing and take readings to determine the level of radiation. The monitors would communicate this information to the control center and the director of radiological monitoring would then determine which areas could be considered safe for habitation. This information would be phoned to the nearest Conelrad station and the public would be told when it was safe to leave their shelters. The McHenry civil defense organization i$ in need of persons to act as radiological monitors. About the middle of January a thirty-two hour radiological" monitoring course will begin at one of the local schools. This course will ba conducted by the director of radiological services, Robert Walter, who is chief laboratory technician of the McHenry hospital. The federal government will loan our organization all the equipment necessary to conduct this course and at its completion will issue one set of equipment for each person who has met the requirements. There is no technical pre-training required to make a person eligible for this course. If you would like to volunteer for this worthwhile program, send your name, address and phone number to: McHenry Civil Defense, McHenry, Illinois. Begin to serve yourself and your community NOW!! Mr. Shay, the director, will be most happy to discuss this with any interested person. His number is at the top of this column. Please call him if there are any questions. There are still about two million more pupils enrolled in our public schools than the total capacity of all of these schools.
