Program Topic "Civil Defense In the School" was the subject of an address given by Atty. Ernest Keppler to Grant School Parent-Teacher Association members Tuesday evening. All schools have shelter areas to be used for military emer gencies or such natural disas ters as tornadoes, the group was told.

Such provisions are the responsibility of the administrative and policy committee set up In 1957. When time-permits, children will be sent -home after the school receives an emergency warning, said the speaker, add ing that parents should become familiar with measures to be taken In the event of radio-ac tive fall-out High schools are provided with radiation detection kits, and students have the opportunity to learn how to use the meters. Schools also are equipped with hand-operated sirens, first aid and splint kits. A future project in the schools Is to train first aid teams as a part of the civil defense program, it was learned. The speaker observed that the United States is covered by ra dar on the north, east and west, with a few radar stations locat ed on the southern border.

The radar line farthest north, known as the DEW line (Distance Early Warning) is located just above the Arctic Circle, and stretches 3,000 miles from east to west, A warning is sent by radio from this line to Colorado Springs in 20 seconds. It is then relayed by radio to Truax Field, Madison: then to Stevens Point, from which point counties in this area are alerted through the sheriff's office. The sheriff's office telephones the warning to the police department, which in turn alerts the superintendent of schools; the latter's office warns the schools, explained the speaker. Atty. Keppler stated that the biggest problem in civil defense is apathy in the public.
