Poq 4 THE NEBRASKAN Friday, December 2, 1955 pQ&LiQirs View : Aspects v ecurify, "At Citizens Cannot Ignore Atomic Fields: O'Donnell By NANCY COOVER Start Writer The field of atomic energy Is something the average citizen can not ignore. Ashton O'Donnell, manager of nuclear economics at Stanford Re search Institute, pointed this out in his speech to the Nuclear Ener gy Institute Thursday, The Stanford Institute has looked at various industries and studied the impact ot atomic power on them. An estimated two-thirds will be affected, he said. O'Donnell said nuclear econom ics gives a meaning to the ab stract concepts of atomic energy. It makes a study of atomic know-how, markets and diversifi cation. The study enables businesses and corporations to get into the atom ic energy business, gives informa tion on how to do it, tells how many other businesses are trying to do the same thing, and illustrate the right kind of equipment and personnel to Use. Through the use of nuclear eco nomics, the effects of nuclear pow er on industry and agriculture have been demonstrated, he said. O'Donnell said that industries such as a metal mining and food processing must observe the signifi cance of the effect which atomic energy will have on them. The range of effect has been divided into supply and utilization; utilization is further divided into power, heat and radiation in order to make the effect clearer, O'Don nell said. The money Involved underlies the importance attached to atomic en ergy," 0 Donnell said. From 1955 to 1960, approximately 2-million kil owatts of atomic power will be installed at the rate of about $400 per installed kilowatt. Each kilowatt will cost approx imately $300 in the period from 1960 to 1965 and the cost will con- o decrease, he said. Three-mil lion kilowatts will be installed in the 1960 to 1965 period, O'Donnell added. Atomic energy will also affect agriculture, through radiation food storage could be improved so that food can be stored over longer per iods of time, O'Donnell stated. "When is atomic energy impor tant?" O'Donnell asked. "The only answer I can give is now." Speaker Clarifies Methods Chancellor's Conference: Student Affairs, Exams Discusse Following the weekly Student Council meetings, Chancellor Clif ford Hardin has been holding a Found Table discussion with var ious groups of the Council. Roland Hjorth, Bev Deepe, Jane Jeffrey, Gail Katskee, Mick Neff, Sue Simmons, Sam Van Pelt, Ber nie Wishnow and Skip Hove met with Hardin and Dr. A. C. Breck enridge this week. Different aspects of the Univer sity were considered. Views were voiced on making the library eas ier to use. Sue Simmons suggested including instruction in the use of the library in freshman English courses. Chancellor Hardin pointed oat Ems University had "One of the best libraries anywhere, and that few colleges have the open stacks. Gail Katskee proposed more stu dent participation in committies such as the Calendar, Exams, and Student Affairs committees. The administration would be re ceptive to such organization in gov ernment, Hardin answered. Fac ulty is usually softer on the student in disciplinary actions that a stu dent disciplinary board, be con tinued. It was asked if professors could be encouraged to put off exams before and right after Homecom ing. As the University becomes a show place during this time, it was thought better displays could be made if exam pressure were re lieved. This year. Homecoming coincid ed with 10-week exams. Arranging a different date for Homecoming, so that it would not coincide with exams was discussed. A minor problem was that none present knew who decided the Homecoming date. Asked about the student-administration relationship, Hardin said be could see no breach in feelings between the students and the ad ministration. To a question on the new coach, he said he did not know of any se-, lection, but that the new coach would be a man of high calibre firstly and coaching ability after that. He believes that is what most people in the state want. Rauch, Fahrnbruch: AUF Names Wallinq, r Honor Workers Gal Walling was earned out standing AUF worker for the 1955 drive at a meeting Thursday.

"It is not necessary to bare bad AUF experience to apply for a board position," Sam Jensen, vice president in charge of publicity elect, said. Jensen said toe wanted to en courage all interested students to apply. Several constitutional revisions j w ere suggested by tbe outgoing j executive officers at the Tburs day's meeting. 'i They included several changes ha the board set-up, such as sug gesting the creation of several new ; board positions, the elimination of several former ones and the reap- 1 porlionraent of duties in several ; cases.

' f" - 1 - v J Journal and Star Cooraesr Smdar WaUiag By BARB SHARP Staff Writer The method of producing uranium 235 or plutonium, the fissionable materials used for fuel power re actors and bombs, was explained Thursday by Shelby Thompson, deputy director of the Division of Information Services of the Atomic Energy Commission. Thompson spoke on "The Atom ic Enterprise of the United States" before the Nuclear Energy Insti tute meeting at the Union Thurs day and Friday. Although the mining and some of the processing of uranium is largely done by private concerns, Thompson declared, the end pro duct is solely controlled by the government. "After the raw material contain ing uranium is found and dug from the ground, it is concentrated, since most of the ore has such a low percentage of uranium con tent," he said. The ore is then purified and the process divides into two processes. one leading to pure uranium 235 and the other to plutonium. After the uranium 235 has been obtained H is changed from its gaseous state to the form used for weapons, and combined with other mater ials. Uranium 235 is found in natural uranium to approximately seven- tenths of one per cent. The other branch of the process leading to plutonium requires that oxide be converted to a metallic uranium and sent to plants where part of it is converted into plu tonium, he said. The plutonium then has to be separated from the uranium metal and reudced to a form for weapon parts, explained Thompson. Final ly, the weapons have to be tested. One of the major testing labora tories for weapons is the Nevada proving ground. The major peace time applications of atomic power aie for beating and for the propul sion of naval craft," he said. "Al though atomic heating for industrial plants can be used, heating for or dinary purposes is not as economic al as conventional fuels," Thomp son said. There is a new departure from the old security program concern ing atomic energy, be said. Access to classified information for per sons not directly working for the government is possible under the revised system; persons working for the peacetime application of classified or so-called secret" in formation, provided they come through prior investigation, be said, ties throughout the country, be said. The main program of classified research is carried on in the government laboratoies at Oak Ridge, Tenn., Thompson said. Many laboratories are being es tablished at colleges and universi ties throughout the country, be said He cited the example of the lab at Iowa State College and of the radiation laboratory at the Univer sity of California. "They all have buildings and costs paid for by the Atomic Energy Commission, Thompson said. Thompson said that be did not intend to say that the government is neglecting its security program around atomic energy. He pointed out that it must not be taken for granted that the enemy has as much knowledge about nuclear en ergy as we do and therefore se curity measures are not important. At the same time, however, be said the government is anxious to have interested persons have as much information abort atomic energy as is possible under an ade quate security program. Atomic energy for peacetime pur poses will be used mainly by phy sicians, researchers and manu facturers, be said. He added that time and events are bringing about changes which will affect the stat us of the country's atomic program. nam Schedule 1-t S--B. a.m. l- (ft S-10 am.
