Northlake, McHen- ry, recently visited the Ameri- ican Museum of Atomic Energy (Oak Ridge Hall of Science), Oak Ridge, Tenn., which features demonstrations and displays on peaceful uses of the atom. The Museum, operated for the U.S. Atomic Energy Com­ mission by Oak Ridge Associa­ ted Universities, is the first such institution in the nation devpted to nuclear science. Es­ pecially trained lecture-dem­ onstrators show how the power of the atom is utilized in med­ icine, industry, and agriculture. A lecture in the Museum's ' Medical Room" illustrates how radioisotopes or ' tracer atoms" are used in diagnosis and treatment of thyroid dis­ turbances and cancer. Mech­ anical hands of the type used in Oak Ridge laboratories and operated by the tour guide show visitors how radioactive ma­ terials may be handled safe­ ly. A huge reactor model is used in still another area to des­ cribe the workings and pur­ poses of the various types of nuclear reactors. Dozens of other exhibits and electronic devices, many op­ erated by the spectator, are a- vailable to Museum visitors. They include a cutaway model of the nuclear cargo ship ' Sa­ vannah," a cloud chamber il­ lustrating the use in physics research of vapor trails such as /those left by jet planes, a hall of fame for scientists, visitor-operated tests of ma­ terials for radioactivity, the; workings of a uranium mine, and devices equipped with ear­ phones and tape recordings des­ cribing atomic structure. Most Museum visitors bring home a dime they placed in a device whjch briefly exposes their coin to neutrons and makes it slightly radioactive. The dime, which almost im­ mediately loses all measurable radioactivity, is placed in a plastic case as a souvenir of the Atomic City. Servicemen News Seaman Apprentice Jerry D.

DRAFT COUNSELING "Dear Editor: "This coming Friday and Sat­ urday, Aug. 22 and 23, some members of the McHenry Coun­ ty Citizens for Peace and Hu­ man Rights are going to at­ tend a draft counselor train­ ing session. The purpose of the session is to train members so that they may serve men of McHenry county as draft coun­ selors. The purpose of draft counseling is to inform men of draft age of their civil rights under the draft law and help men make a decision about ac­ cepting a deferment, applying for conscientious objector, go­ ing to Canada, resisting the draft, or joining the Army. "The job of a draft counsel­ or is to inform a counselee of these five choices and help him make a conscious choice about one of them. Draft counseling is legal as long as one does not advise the counselee to a- void the draft. This is illegal and is also poor counseling, so it will not be done by this group. The MCCPH sees a great need for the service in our • county and will be opening an office in Algonquin very soon. These offices have been opera­ ting successfully in other cit­ ies throughout the country. If you are interested in the pro­ gram please call either Jim Schuessler, 459-0939; or Marc Miyashiro, 338-0112.
