THE BATTALION Wednesday, September 25, 1963 College Station, Texas Page 3 ATOMIC ENERGY STUDY Extension Service Gets Radiographers Training Job A training program to prepare industrial radiographers for in dustry is under study by the A&M University Engineering Ex tension Service. , * A special grant has been awarded by the Vocational and Technical Division of the U. S. Office of Health, Education and Welfare to develop a curriculum for industrial radiology schools. A nationwide advisory com mittee, representing men from industry and state and federal agencies, held- its initial meeting in Houston Tuesday. Frank J. Konecny, an Engi neering Extension Service execu tive assistant, saic| the advisory group discussed subject matter to be included in the program to train industrial radiographers. The committee also outlined duties graduates may be expect ed to perform, Konecny added. “Once the curriculum is ap proved,” he said, “the next logi cal step would be the establish ment of schools, including one at A&M.” Commenting on the program, Konecny said laymen are gen erally acquainted with hazards of radiation, but few are aware of its peaceful uses in industry. “Radioisotopes have provided some of the most important peaceful benefits of atomic ener gy,” Konecny said. “Such tech niques permit manufacturers to produce products more easily, quickly and cheaply.” A beam of radiation emitted from a radioisotope often pro vides information about material previously impossible, he said. Other benefits range from dollar savings and improved products to prevention of accidents through detection of faulty construction. Eugene F. Kornenberg o f Houston, who has several years experience in industrial applica tion of radioactivity materials, will help prepare the course ma terial. His previous assignments have included inspection work on atom ic submarines, g-amma-ray in spection of a 630 mile pipeline in Alaska and consultant type Graduate Dean Has Fellowship Info [Information about the Social Science Research Council’s fel lowships and other appointments now are available at the office of Wayne C.

Licensed by AEG, he has trained company personnel in safe handling and use of radioactive materials and has assisted in pro duction of radiation safety films. Konecny, Kronenberg and H. D.
