Army Scientists Develop New
Disease Diagnosing Method
The importance of the rap
id detection and diagnosis of
diseases of man-or of animal
diseases which can be trans
mitted to man has long been
recognized by the military
vi pa a in
World War II when U. S.
servicemen came into contact
with many of the world's exto-
ic and bizarre diseases.
The most striking application of

portant.
Human filarial parasites such
as those causing elephantiasis
may be just as easily detected in
whale blood preparations by
trained technicians after a short
period of instruction.
The great versatility of the
new technique has made it a
very valuable tool in related
fields of research. It promises
to be useful in studies of the
effects of drugs iuitibiotics
and chemicals on cells or
on parasites. It also makes
possible prolonged direct mi
croscopic observations.
This method has proved use
ful in observations of certain re
actions of white blood cells. Be
cause it permits detection of blood
parasites at low magnification it
may be applied to large-scale
field surveys and to epidemiolo
gic studies of disease.
As a result of studies conduct
ed by the Division of Veterinary
Medicine Walter Reed Army In

tion with the National Institutes

shown to be a valuable tool for

New Film Shows
NATO In Action
WASHINGTON (AFPS) The
current Berlin crisis has heavily
underlined the importance of
NATO as the powerful shield of
the free world against Commu
nist aggression.
A film provided by the Office
of Armed Forces Information and
Education Department of De
fense gives a clear picture of the
problems facing NATO and how
this organization of 15 countries
operates.
The film "'NATO In Action" is

The lower operational levels of
NATO in action developing new
equipment and techniques in the
field of research and training are
coupled with a quick trip to the
forces of Great Britain the Neth

all working together to make the
alliance an effective deterrent
against threatened aggression.

Gordon
Expands
Training
WASHINGTON (DOD) Army
training facilities at Fort Gordon
Ga. will be expanded in order
to provide basic combat and In
fantry advanced individual train
ing for approximately 8000 sol
diers.
At present Fort Gordon is a
training center for Military Po
lice and Signal Corps personnel.
This training will continue at
Fort Gordon. The average train
ing load at Fort Gordon is now
approximately 3400.
Basic combat training will
begin September 7 with arri
val of the first increment of
660 trainees. By December
the center will be operating
at full capacity.
At present approximately 6700
military personnel and 2100 civil
ians are permanently stationed
at Fort Gordon. The new train
ing mission will call for an in
crease in the military training
complement of approximately 2-
000 and an increase in civilian
personnel of approximately 300.
Fort Gordon was opened in De
cember 1941 for training troops
of the Fourth Service Command.
During World War II the 4th
10th and 26th Infantry Divi
sions received training at the
post.
The Military Police School was
established at Fort Gordon in Sep
tember 1948 and the Signal Train
ing Center in October 1948.
Fort Gordon became a perma
nent Army installation on March
21 1956.
Rep. Kearns
Wants Sousa's
Home A Shrine
WASHINGTON (AFPS) The
name of America's "March
King" John Philip Sousa will for
ever be associated with the serv
ices—not only because he led
the Marine Corps Band from 1880
to 1892 was the Army's musical
director during the Spanish-Amer
ican War and organized Navy
bands during WWI but because
the rousing beat of his great
marches was the beat of march
ing military men.
Now one of his admirers in Con
gress Rep. Carroll D. Kearns
of Pennsylvania has sponsored a
bill to make Sousa's former home
in Washington a national shrine.
And he is conducting his cam
paign to gain support for the bill
just as vigorously as the famed
bandmaster conducted The Wash
ington Post March and other
march classics.
Rep. Kearns is in fact conduct
ing—literally. Recently in 83 de
gree heat he brought a 45-man
band to the old Sousa house in
the Capitol Hill area. The build
ing is now vacant boarded up
and condemned.
While the Congressman discuss
ed with neighborhood residents
his plan to restore the house and
some 20 blocks of the area sur
rounding it the band played de
spite the humid heat through a
series of Sousa favorites.
Then Rep. Kearns himself a
man schooled in music got up
on the steps of the old building
and beaming and perspiring con
ducted The Stars and Stripes For
ever with a zest and rhythm that
Sousa would have applauded.
SFC (E-6) Kenneth D. Bachus
.has joined the transportation sec
tion of the 58th Infantry 2d Ar
mored Division. He previously was
assigned to the 12th Transporta
tion Co. in Germany.
"The Berlin Situation" will be
the topic of a talk given by Maj.
Gen. Ralph M. Osborne Deputy
Fourth United States Army com
mander at the Sept. 28 meeting
of Chapter No. 76 of the Reserve
Officers' Association. The meet
ing at the Killeen Base Officers'
Open Mess will begin at 6:30
p.m.
Gen. Osborne assumed his pres
ent duties on June 12 after serv
ing as US commander in Berlin
for six months starting December
15 1959. His talk on the current
crisis in Berlin will thus be from
first-hand knowledge of that crit
ical world area.
Reservations may be made
by calling the Chapter Secre
tary Capt. Haynes at
0V5-2883 Lt. Col. Martinez at

ME4-6182.
General Osborne was born in
Friendshp Heights Md. in 1903.
He attended elementary school in
Denver and in Newport News
Va. graduating from the latter
high school in 1920.
A 1926 graduate of the United
States Military Academy he holds
a BS degree in Mechanical Engi
neering from MIT and is a
graduate of the Ordnance School
Watertown Arsenal Mass. the
Field Artillery School at Fort Sill
Okla. the Command and General
Staff College Fort Leavenworth
Kan. and the National War Col
lege Washington D. C.
His early tours of duty include
service with the 1st Field Artillery
Brigade in Maryland the 11th
Field Artillery Regiment in Ha
waii and as an instructor with
the Field Artillery School.
At the time of the attack
on Pearl Harbor he was a
military observer in England
and in 1942 was assigned to
the Research and Develop
ment Division of Army Serv
ices Forces in Washington
which he later headed.
In January 1945 he was as
signed to the European Theater
of Operations for duty as assist

Your
Social
Security
Many widows age 62 or over
who are collecting social security
benefits based on their own work
did not get increases in their pay
ments with the checks delivered
to them this week Durelle L. Al
len district manager of the Tem
ple Social Security Office point
ed out Tuesday. But some of them
may find that they can get
small increase in their monthly
payments by applying to their so
cial security office.
The 10 per cent increase in wi
dow's benefits signed into law by
President Kennedy on June 30
is payable only to those widows
age 62 and over who are receiv
ing benefits based on their hus
bands' work under social security
Allen said.
Under the social security law a
widow age 62 or over who has
worked under social security long
enough to become insured is usu
ally paid retirement benefits ba
sed on her own record of earn
ings. She is paid the widow's ben
efits based on her husband's earn
ings only if those widow's bene
fits would be higher than her own
retirement benefits.
Because of the 10 per cent in
crease in widow's benefits a few
women may now find that wid
ow's benefits based on their hus
bands' work would be higher than
their present benefits.
Any widow who believes that
she might qualify for higher bene
fits because of this change in the
law can find out for sure by con
tacting her social security office.
