SUNDAY, JANUARY 2S, lit. THE ARIZONA DAILY STAR PAGE TWELVE SECTION 8 Wonders Of The Universe UA Will Add New Course For' Nurses A course in ward management for registered nurses will be added Scientists Fear 'Baby' Satellites May Clutter Radio Spectrum to the curriculum of the Univer sity of Arizona's School of Nursing for the second semester of the current academic year. The course, which will be offered for two units of resident credit, has been scheduled for 7 to 9 p.m. on Tuesdays and 3:40 to 5: 30 p.m. on Thursday, according to Mrs.

PearJ P. Coulter, director of the School of Nursing. Addition of the new course, Mrs. Coulter said, is an indication of the fact that the UA accepts as its responsibility "the assistance of registered nurses on the job to improve their service to people." The course, which will deal with the study of the functions of a head nurse, will include the principles of managing a hospital unit and the application of those principles in order to provide comprehensive nursing care for the. patient.

Students will also' learn about supplies, equipment, records, reports and policies. The course will be conducted by Miss Gladys Sorenson, professor of nursing, and Mrs. Fanchette Goodkin, instructor in nursing. a Is yftV 7 vv Insurance Panel To Be Held Session Scheduled At UA On Feb. 6th "The Industry Looks at Itself" is the theme of Arizona Insurance Day to be held Feb.

I. M. LEVITT Director, Franklin Institute Planetarium Philadelphia In tonight's sky the "baby" Vanguard is circling the earth and transmitting radio signals back to the surface. Vanguard was launched on March 17. It has been telemetering back information ever since.

At this moment scientists say the one thing they do NOT want is more information on the temperature of Vanguard. Yet its radio is alive and continues to transmit. Not only have we had nine months of information cascading back but, with Vanguard's high altitude, it will continue cluttering up a radio frequency for 200 years more. This points up a serious problem first brought to attention by Andrew G. Haley, president of the International Astronautical Federation.

Mr. Haley pointed out that the continuous transmitting of the sputniks on the 20 and 40 megacycle band was a violation of treaties signed by every country, including Russia. He showed the use of these frequencies was illegal because they had been assigned to stations on earth. The continuous transmission on this frequency affected the operation of the legal transmitters. Mr.

Haley said the assignment of the frequencies is valid for the "airspace" over a nation. Some space law experts may argue that these vehicles are not in a country's airspace but in "outer space" and thus not subject to regulations. But Mr. Haley feels that if these frequencies are not subject to control then we had better make provisions for controlling them. For years -he has tried to alert governments to the consequences of ignoring regulations and permitting indiscriminate choice of frequencies.

He pointed out that the radio spectrum is limited and our civilization is making more and more demands on this spectrum. While It is conceivable that someday the very scientists who. strive so mightily to place satellites into orbit will go aloft to destroy them or at least silence their radio transmitters. Another, perhaps more practical method will be to regulate the transmitters from the earth. 'Show On Skates' Slated Wednesday Tucson's newest roller skating rink, the Rollerama, will feature a "show on skates" Wednesday at 8 p.m., with the proceeds going to the March of Dimes fund.

Sponsored by the Tucson Rollerama skating club, the show will include free style and dance skating, clowns, a special square dance on skates and three acts from Phoenix. General admission will be 60 cents, reserved seats one dollar. The rink is located at 1120 S. Swan. Doors will be open at 7 p.m.

for an hour of public skating. Bow Wow Chop Suey TAIPEI, Jan. 24 WV-Seventy-five dogs have been stolen in two weeks, and police have warned dog owners: Keep your pets from wandering the streets as they may wind up in a restaurant kitchen. Many people here regard dog meat as a special treat because they think it warms the blood and has rich food value. uous radio transmission is unnecessary.

Next April there will be a meeting of the Consultative Committee on International Radio in Los Angeles. Circulated will be a proposal noting that "observations of radio emissions of the first earth satellites have already yielded valuable information about the ionosphere, as well as about the problem of space travel." The committee will recommend "clear channels be set aside for the use of satellite and space ship emissions." Thus under the leadership of Mr. Haley, our foremost authority on space law, some plan may emerge. One is long overdue. (Copyright 1959, General Features Corp.)

But as we have seen, the 108 megacycle band is cluttered up and will remain so for two centuries. If the scientist had his way, he would turn off Vanguard's transmitter. But how? Weapons are not yet available for knocking the satellite out of the sky.

But unless the situation is cleared up, we may someday find ourselves unable to transmit signals on earth at all. This is not merely an abstract problem. It affects us now on earth. Dr. Wernher von Braun, speaking on the cluttering up of the radio spectrum, suggested to this writer that all satellites be designed to transmit only on command from the earth.

A year ago this would have been unthinkable. Our payloads were too small.

Emilio was born in San Fran-dsco and when he was five, his parents moved to Clifton, Ariz. "My father was an amateur musician," he said.

"He loved to play the clarinet. One time he bought Mother an old upright piano. It had been in a saloon. It was a wreck and when they took it apart to clean it, they found gentenita, Carola Goya with whom I toured for five years in South COMPLETE America, Mexico and South Africa.
