"To refuse to accept any responsibility for such protection is to place the school system in a situation of seeming to have less concern about the well being of ihe children and of the total community thai) it actually has. To accept the full responsibility without serious community consideration and careful thought and planning is to place on school administrators and boards of education a burden they ought not to bear alone. "The hazards of radiation and fallout from a nucloar bomb threaten parents as well as children. To separate children 'from their parents in a Time of such a disaster "ii almost unthinkable. Providing protection against the fallout hazards of nuclear bombing attacks therefore is a total community responsibility. It shouh' be a general public response bility and not that of the board of education, school administrator, and teaching staff alone "Until there is more evidence on the essential elements for r> reasonable, protective program in case of thermonuclear attack and until a sound nationr' and community policy is presented, more dependable fact; made available, and a community agreement reached, your AASA executive committee ad vises that you not be stampeded into any form of ill considered action or into a frenz> of construction that may bo urged by frightened individuals hysterical propaganda, commercial interests .or local leaders who do not possess the facts."

By Ray Zelewsky On Fixing It Yourself One of the most challenging TV servicing jobs that CUSTOM T.V. ever received came from the home of a plumber He apparently was fascinated by the maze of wires, tubes and so on, and gave in to the urge to fix it himself. Most of it was in a basket when he brought it in to our shop, and I know just how he felt. I took an alarm clock apart one time, and that carburetor on my car had to be replaced after I 'fiddled' with it.
