Power Economy Future
Of Atom Said at Stake
Washington ''U.R) The government wants private industry to
take on one of the meanest, nastiest, toughest, and costliest chores
In the whole atomic energy business. ,
It hopes private companies will do the job better than it does.
The future of economic atomic power for peace is at stake.
This chore is the chemical processing of nuclear fuel elements
that have been used in research or power reactors. Involved in it
is the still unsolved problem of safe disposal of radioactive wastes.
Dr. Frank Pittman, deputy director of the Atomic Energy Com
mission's Civilian Application Division, told the United Press "it
is extremely important" that private industry get into the chemi
cal processing field.
In no other way, he said, can
a "completely integrated" and
"well rounded" private atomic
Industry become established.
In an announcement overshad
owed in the news last week by
the President's State of the Un
ion message, the AEC asked
private industry to submit pro
posals' some 18 months from
now for building and operating
Its own chemical processing
plants.
Important Step.
It described the offer "as a
further step toward private own
ership of atomic energy facili
ties for peaceful uses." Indus
try already is moving into the
atomic power field and other
applications of nuclear energy
for profit.
But officials have stated often
that atomic power cannot be
come competitive with other
kinds of energy in any general
sense until chemical processing

Suggestions
Unimportant
Los Angeles (U.R) The
NCAA football rules committee
went' into session today in
Long Beach with the prospect
of doing little or nothing that
will change the game for 1956.
Fritz Crisler, athletic director
at University of Michigan and
chairman of the committee, says
about 60 suggestions have been
received but none of them
"are of significance."
"It appears that most every
' one, including the fans, is happy
with the present rules," said
Crisler.
It was revealed that Frank
McCormick, boss of officials for
the Pacific Coast conference had
received proposals for about 250
changes in rules but most of
these have been eliminated be
fore the session gets underway.
Committee Appointments
Still leff for officials to handle
are the appointment of the ex
ecutive committee and the 1956
TV committee.
The latter is expected to bear
the brunt of some . proposed
changes in the rules regarding
sectional handling of televised
football game. The voting as
sembly of 212 Wednesday gave
a "go ahead" signal to the group
to use the 1955 standards. -But
there may be some protest. The
only man who voted against us
ing the 1955 set-up again this
year was Edward Moose Krause,
athletic director at Notre Dame
a long time foe of controlled
television. - '
becomes cheaper and more effi
cient. It is one of the big cost
factors delaying the day of eco
nomic atomic power.
After atomic fuel has been
used for a while it must be re
processed to recover unspent
fuel, newly produced fuel, "fer
tile materials" which can be
changed into fuel, and various
radioactive materials which may
be useful in industry or research.
The remaining "hot" mate
rials must be stowed somewhere,
somehow, for as long as 200
years in a fashion guaranteeing
that they will not damage plant
and animal life, including peo
ple, or contaminate soil, water,
or other resources.
The government maintains
mammoth chemical processing
facilities at its big atomic pro
duction plants, such as Hanford,
Wash., and Sayannah River,
S. C.
. Because used fuel slugs from
these big plants spit deadly ra
diation comparable to tons of
radium, the work of handling
and processing them must be
done by remote control behind
shielded walls.
It is time-consuming and cost
ly. Pittman said the government
hopes private industry will find
means of sharply reducing the
costs and of making the process
generally more efficient.'

K. C. Jones Case
Killed by NCAA
Los Angeles (U.R) Uni
versity of San Francisco's un
beaten basketball team will be
without the services of K. C.
Jones, its captain and star guard
if it gets a second crack at the
NCAA championship this season.
Jones' case was brought be
fore the NCAA council yester
day but a resolution to extend
his eligibility failed to receive
a second and died on the floor
without action.
Jones played only one game
in the 1953-54 season because of
an operation and USF sought to
get an extra year of eligibility
for him. He 'was permitted by
the California Basketball associ
ation to play in league games.
USF Coach Phil Woolpert said
in San Francissco he expected
the denial of eligibility, but
termed the TSTCAA "a negative
body," because the case was
brushed off without a vote.
