WASHINGTON, May 3 (P The first transmission

by bouncing the signal off an orbiting satellite was announced yesterday by the Air Force.
The experiment was conducted April 24 with &

the bounced signal.
The distance between the two land points Is about

A Mouse In The Clocks
You arc sitting in Frazee Hall in
your first morning class. It is 12 minutes till 10. At 10 minutes till 10
the bell rings. At nine till 10 the in-

structor dismisses class. By eight till
10 you have your hooks in hand and
are on your way to your 10 o'clock
class in the Fine Arts Building.
You race through the Botanical
Gardens. By your watch it is four
minutes till 10 as you enter Fine Arts.
Then as you pass the clock in the
hall, you notice that it says the time
is only eight minutes till 10. Great!
You have picked up some extra time
before class begins.
Nearly an hour passes; you look
at your watch to see that it says 10
till 11. But the bell does not ring.
Finally at five till 11, by totir watch,
the bell does ring. After the instructor talks another two or three minutes past the bell, you clash out of
that class to get to your 11 o'clock
class. By your watch you have just
a little less than three minutes to get

&.:-

from the Fine Arts Building to
Building.
On the way out the door of your
class in the Fine Arts Building, you
glance at the clock to see that it says
you have a little less than eight
minutes to get to your next class. But
that is little consolation when you
finally do get into Funkhouser and
see that the time is one minute after
11. You're late for class.
Of course, being one or two minutes late for class is not a life or
death situation. A few teachers are
seldom earlier themselves; very few
start lecturing exactly as the bell rings
to begin class. But while getting to
class exactly on time may not help
grades any, it certainly does not hurt.
It is really a pretty small thing,
getting to class exactly on time. But
the situation need not exist at all.
Someone should simply take the time
to adjust and synchronize the clocks.
Then this problem, small as it may
seem, could be entirely eliminated.

Facts And Fallout
In spite of gloomy forecasts of
alarmists radioactive fallout from the
United States nuclear tests should be
no measurable hazard to the world.
We wish the same could be said for
the political fallout.
Quite apart from protests that
have been voiced by those who would
like to halt the arms race, there appears to be a continuing concern in
many countries over radiation danger
from the tests, negligible though it
may be.
Whether it is scientifically justifiable or not, this widespread concern has made it more difficult for
the United States to get an impartial hearing among neutrals for its
case for resuming atmospheric testing. To a large extent the United
States has itself to blame.
Either for propaganda purposes
or through subconsciously distorted
perspective, a possibility of fallout
clanger was kept before public thinking throughout the Soviet test series.
Even when they gave assurance that
no real danger was involved, some
and
official statements
American
many news reports expressed concern over the radioactive burden the
Soviet tests were adding to the atmosphere.
Charts showing forecasts of the
direction in which debris from the
Soviet tests moved with the winds
were regularly published in newspapers and magazines. There were
also reports of temporary rises in
ground-leve- l
radioactivity.
These charts and reports have
been criticized by knowledgeable
scientists as grossly misleading and
virtually meaningless as far as radiation .hazard is concerned.
fallout
They note that world-wid- e
is something that would occur many
months after the Soviet tests and bore
little meaningful relation to the immediate wind patterns. The fluctua- -

-

tions in ground radioactivity after
the tests also had relatively little
fallout hazpertinence to long-terard.
These reports, based on official
information, served only to raise false
fears and to maintain an exaggerated
concern. This now makes it difficult
for the United States to be persuasive
in arguing that its own tests involve
no radiation hazard.
Such an emotionally charged subject demands complete candor in its
handling. One cannot twist scientific
analyses to condemn an opponent,
even by implication, and then expect
to use them to justify oneself.

Government and the press will report

candidly during the Pacific Ocean

"They're off and running." This is
the theme of the Kentucky Derby
but it could also refer to University
students heading to Louisville for the
derby.
With the Ft. Lauderdale scare
over and two UK coeds hurt in an
automobile wreck, those students attending the Kentucky Derby . . . beware!
In the past, the University students have been lucky with all the
trips and vacations they have taken.
But, how loug can our luck hold out?
I 64 and U.S. 60, the two main
routes .to Louisville, will be crowded
Friday afternoon and Saturday morning with everyone headed to Church-hil- l
Downs and the Kentucky Derby.
If ever one will remember safe driving rules and place courtesy first,
there will be no accidents freak or
otherwise.

Aciivilics Myth May Crumble
GOAD
Editorial Staff Writer
The great college myth that has
provided such a sturdy hitching post
may soon crumble. A recent survey
by American Telephone and Telegraph Company gives definite proof
that average grades and many extracurricular activities are not the best
indicators of future success.
The best indicator, the survey reveals, is the student's standing in his
graduating class. Bank in the class
was found more important than the
school where grades were earned.
Many top students from "below average" schools were more often successful than the average students
from outstanding schools.
Extracurricular
activities during
school years was a very inaccurate
guide the research showed, and working one's way through college proved
almost nothing about drive and ambition.
The chairman of the research, F.
B. Kappel, said that when a man of
high intelligence but low grades is
hired, it is rather certain he w ill not
display such drive. High scholarship
men have already given a degree of
proof of their willingness to work.
prosAmong the most sought-afte- r
pects was the man who earned high
grades in an outstanding school. If
the person also held an important
campus position, his desirability was
even further enhanced.
In the research, the company used
salary as the indicator of success.
By MARGARET

Executives who had been employed
the same amount of time were compared with each other. College grades,
activities, and earning were then

compared with the "success indicator."
Of the men who were in the upf
salary bracket,
per
came from tbcjijwer third of their
"from' the
classes and only
bottom academic third.
Since AT&T Company hires about
3,000 college students yearly," jt had
ample material for research. Ten
thousand comp'any executives who
graduated between 1910 and 1930
were considered.

Certainly students go to school to
prepare for their life's work. But
often they do not seem to realize that
their work in the academic com-- ,
munity at that point in their lives is
their life's work.
Many times the attitude is, "life
begins after you are graduated," and
responsibility and opportunity are put
off until that time. Far. too many persons live in the future, and the "if"
attitude is so prevalent.
One often hears students say, "if"
I would 'apply myself I would be a
good scholar, or "if" I can just get
through this course, or that exam,
Iiy J. DONALD

and "if" I can get through this year,
then next year I will have time lor
extracurricular activities, like student
groups and church.
This spirit' of procrastination is
fine if the day of opportunity ever
it never
comes, but unfortunately
does. The New Testament teaches us
"now is the acceptable time," today
is all we have "and need, for tomorrow
may never come.
Live for the da'y. The student's
responsibility and opportunity Is now
now; this is his yacatjon. No matter what lie ultinlately does, more
than likely the patterns he set tui1iy"
will be the ones that he will follow
in later life.
