Education and Industry
University to Facilitate
Attraction of Industry
The University will be a
primary factor in the devel
opment of industry in this
area.
This idea was presented
Wednesday to 250 business
leaders as part of a new for
mula for attracting reseaich
oriented industry to the Lin
coln - Omaha - Council Bluffs
area.
The gathering was spon
sored by six gas utilities
companies at the Nebraska
Center for Continuing Educa
tion. "The presence or absence
of first-class institutions of
higher education and related
research facilities may well
have more influence than any
other factor upon the future
growth of this region," said
W. A. Strauss, president of
Northern Natural Gas Com
pany of Omaha, spokesman
for the sponsoring companies
Technological Reasons
Strauss noted that there is
much evidence iliat techno
logical reasons are becoming
increasingly important in de
termining the location of in
dustry. "Today," he said, "dy
namic, growing industries are
choosing plant sites on t h e
basis of community 'livcabil
ity' and whether manage
ment and technical personnel
are likely to be attracted by
the total environment.
"It should not be surpris
ing pither. then, that this total
environment is made up in
part by the presence ot out
standing educational and sci
entific facilities."
He continued, "Like the uni
versities and colleges in Cali
fornia and Massachusetts, the
University, and the oth
er institutions of higher-

education in Nebraska have
long been serving and have
had much to do with the
state's past progress. And
this role is one that is in
creasing rather than diminish
ing." Challenge Accepted
Chancellor Clifford Hardin,
accepting the formula as
sound, said, "We accept the
challenge and stand ready to
cooperate and offer whatever
assistance we can in keeping
with our educational pur
pose.
Discussing the value of a
university to industry, Dr.
Hardin explained that "it in
volves the whole of the Uni
versity operation: the search
for fundamental knowledge;
the availability of authorities
for consultation; the opportu
nity for participation in pro
grams of continuing educa
tion and the availability of
education opportunities for
family members of plant em
ployees." Dr. Hardin also commended
the Legislature's request last
year to the University asking
that it report on reserach pro
grams and plans which might
bear upon industrial and re
lated developments.
This, he noted, resulted in
the formation of the new Ne
braska Industrial Research In
stitute which is now assess
ing the public and private re
search facilities within the
state and the need for re
search activity.

Company unveiled an industri

lines.
TB Test
Program
Initiated
Neiv Students
Receive X-Rays
By KAREN GUNLICKS
"Now or never" say experts
about the eradication of TB
throughout the world. TB
must be controlled before the
TB germ becomes resistant
to the drugs used to treat it.
Student Health, in accord
ance with this threat, has set
up a program to help control
TB at the University. All new
entering students at, the fee
ginning of each semester are
chest X-Rayed to determine
if any TB germs have done
any damage. In addition, all
international students, their
spouses and children over
age ten; all foreign profes
sors and all food handlers on
campus, are X-rayed yearly.
Also X-Rayed are new em
ployees in manual labor work
at the University, those facul
ty members and employees
who desire to have one dur
ing the first week of Febru
ary and all senior students in
Teachers College. ,
In the future all new em
ployees in every department
of the University and College
of Dentistry will be required
to have X-Rays.
A tuberculin test, which
shows if there are any TB
germs in the body, is given
to all sophomore students in
Teachers College, internation
al students, foreign profes
sors, dentistry students, all
new employees and senior
students in Teachers College
who had a certain response
when they were sophomores.
Nebraska, as a state, has
the lowest rate of TB in the
U.S. All five of the new cases
of TB found in the last seven
years at the University were
international students.
It is important to detect the
disease early to insure recov
ery. Although TB has fallen
from the first cause of death
in the U.S. to the 13th, late
detection will cause a long
get-well period. However,
with new drugs which are
the principal weapon in the
treatment today, the normal
period for limited activity is
from sixto nine months as
compared to two years ten
years ago. Besides the new
drugs, some amount of bed
rest and a balanced, whole
some diet are necessary for
recovery.
The lack of symptoms of
TB adds to the problems of
controlling the disease. There
are usually no symptoms in
the early stages of the ill
ness. A person with active
TB may feel perfectly weU
for quite some time after the
disease has struck. There are
no outward signs that he is
infected. This symptom free
period is when the disease
can be most easily cured.
When signs do appear, they
may include: extreme tired
ness, poor appetite, loss of
weight, frequent colds, per
sistent cough, fever, indiges
tion, night sweating and spit
ting up of blood. At this point,
the disease has advanced to
a point where it is much
harder to cure.
TB is not inherited. It is
caught from someone who
has it mainly by breathing
air with TB germs in it. Peo
ple who have it may spread
the germs by coughing,
sneezing or spitting. It is
sometimes caught by carry
ing germs into the mouth on
fingers, food, eating utensils
or by kissing someone who
has TB.
An TB ex-patient who has
been watched for some time
to make sure that all evi
dence of active tuberculosis
has vanished, may safely
mingle and work with other
people with no danger to
them.
