The state-wide 1962 BSU (Bap
tist Student Union) Spring Plan
ning Conference will be held at
Lakeview Assembly, near Pales
tine, Friday through Sunday.
“Disciplines of Christian Stu
dent Leadership” will be the theme
or the conference. Special music
vvil be presented by BSU choirs
from North Texas State, East Tex
as State, University of Corpus

Conference Choir.
The conference starts with reg

includes two nights, six meals and
insurance.
Over 850 students from more
than 60 schools are expected to

BSU hopes to send 50 students, an
increase from 43 over last year.
A&M BSU students have chal
lenged Texas Tech’s BSU to a

3e played during the conference.
The Tech team currently reigns as
the intramural champs at Lubbock.

| conference and rides may be ob
tained at A&M’s BSU center. Ar

“With the increased industrial
usage of radioactive materials, it
will be necessary that safety super
visors realize the precautions which
must be observed in their handling.
“Most routine industrial radio
active levels are relatively low
with their sources encapsulated in
strong containers. These are re
latively safe unless the capsules
are accidentally ruptured,” Walker
stated.
Pointing out the high safety
record maintained by the users of
radioactive materials, he said that
the use and control of these ma
terials has become a well-regulated
science.
Although the majority of appli
cations for radioacttive materials
are presently limited to inspection
and quality control, the Atomic
Energy Commission estimated that
American industry saved over $500
million last year through their use.
One of the widest industrial uses
for atomic radiation is found in
gauging the thicknesses of paper,
plastic and metal, Walker said.
