Keeping tab on Alpha,
Beta and Gamma rays is a
task which keeps Ed Simp
son, University public
health engineer, busier than
a geiger counter in a pile
of uranium.
Radioligical Health
Simpson is in charge of
the University's radiologi
cal health program and is
responsible for. seeing that
the researchers working
with radioactive materials
do not absorb harmful
amounts of radiation
namely Alpha and Beta
particles and Gamma rays.
Director of 13 different
laboratories on the three
University campuses which
use radioactive materials,
Simpson has his own meth
od for checking radiation.
Simpson's method is sim
ilar to that which a house
wife might use in her liv
ing room 'with one impor
tant exception the dnst is
checked in a $1,300 Intern
al Proportional Counter be
fore going in the garbage
can.
Circular pieces of filter
paper serve as Simpson's
dust cloth, which he uses to
wipe the tops of lab tables.
The particles collected are
put in the counter which
tells him whether the radio
active atoms on the "dust
cloth" are throwing off a
dangerous number of par
ticles. Alpha Particles
If the lab particles are
found to contain radioactive
material omitting more
than 15 Alpha particles per
minute in an area about as
big as the palm of your
hand, the lab is closed and
scrubbed with water.
One of the problems
which Simpson has faced
was how to safely dispose
of radioactive lab materials
such as broken glass, speci
mens used in experiments
and other equipment.
This problem was finally
solved, said Simpson. A
small concrete-block struc
ture was built on the Ag
campus which serves as the
University's "garbage can"
in which all radioactive
waste is stored until it loses
its radioactivity.

Badge System
In addition to monitoring
the laboratories, Simpson
also maintains a film badge
system for measuring radi
ation amounts to which
each researcher is exposed
during a two-week period.

ation as a service to Asian
students in the United States,
reports that a school for Jap

has been opened in
Tokyo. The two-month course
is free.
The Metropolitan Govern

view of many complaints
from Japaness women that

Classes are held twice a

The badge, which each
worker wears pinned to his
clothing, contains a piece
of photographer film. When
developed, it indicates the
radiation level to which he
was subject.
Every two weeks the film
is changed and sent to the
Radiation Detection Com
pany which shows that the
wearers are exposed to ra
dioactive sources emitting
about 113 particles each
minute a level which is
not harmful.
, Radiation to which all of
us are subject fallout,
cosmic rays from the sun
and radon gas from radium

about 80 Beta particles be

If the exposure is quite
large, be is no longer al

Simpson says that in the
past four years, only a
handful have received slight
overdoses and no one has
experienced and overex
posure which would dismiss
him from work.
