CARROLLTON, TEXAS, FRIDAY, APRIL 19, 1957
TP&L, 10 Other Companies,
Forming Atomic Foundation
Texas Power & Light Company
has joined with ton other electric
light and power companiesooperat-
ing in Texas in forming the Texas
Atomic Energy Research Founda-
tion, it was announced Wednesday,
April'10, by W. W. Lynch, TP&L
president. Incorporation papers
have been filed with the Secretary
of State.
The Foundation, a non-profit
organization, is to engage in re-
search in the atomic energy field
as it applies to the generation of
electric power, Mr. Lynch said.
The program will not include an
atomic energy generating plant at
this time.
“Texas Power & Light's active
interest in atomic energy as a fuel
source for producing electric pow-
er dates back from the beginning
of its release by the AEC for do-
mestic use," said Mr. Lynch. “In
June, 1955, the Company employed
the full time services of a scientist
assigned to the study of nuclear
energy. Three months later, Texas
Power & Light Company secured
an
designated TP&L officials to re-
ceive confidential and restricted
data from the Atomic Energy Com-
mission.”

which form tjie Foundation, Mr
Lynch explained, will carry on
research and development work

"It should be understood,” he
said, “that the only difference in
atomic energy plants and present
day power plants is that this new
energy substitutes as a fuel or
heat source for the boilers which
make the steam to spin the turbo-
generators. The generators, trans-
mission and distribution systems
are virtually the same.”

FIGHTS CANCER
(Ed. Note: This Is one In a
series of articles lo be published
during the recant Cancer Drive).
Is human cancer inherited?
A Texas scientist has made a
study of this, and his answer is:
“No. One can't inherit cancer.”
Mrs. D. C. McDowell has re-
quested the group to make posters
for the general meeting of the
Women of Church, which is to be
held on the night of May 20.
This is the Birthday Meeting
of the women, at which time they
will take up a special offering for
mission work, as announced by
Mrs. McDowell, president.
The youth group are to make
three posters depicting the pur-
pose of the meeting. The post-

High school sports are a big part of this young-
ster’s life today — but he also has a sharp eye on /
his future.

He is taking the math and science courses now
that will build a solid foundation for an engi-
neering education in college. By starting now, as
early as the eighth grade, he will assure himself
of a fine opportunity in one of America’s most
promising career fields.
For proof of the outstanding opportunity that
creative engineering offers, look to Temco,
where aviation is carrying young men to the top
fast, where rewarding careers await tomorrow’s
engineer.
Th.r* won't bo enough engineers to
moot our country's nouds until mors
high school ctudonti ore counseled
on this fact: tomorrow's choice ca-
reer opportunities will await the
engineering graduate. Your help is
needed.
Humans may inherit a suscepti-
bility or a predisposition to cancer
however. That means that under
certain conditions—possibly in the
presence of a cancer virus (if such
a thing exists), overexposure to
cancer-causing rays and chemicals
and a hormonal imbalance—cer-
tain humans qje likely to develop
a cancer.

A new focal point has loomed
into view—one on which we can
all concentrate in the coming
weeks, with material and moral as-
sistance: The First Spring Festival
to be held under the sponsorship
of Mary Immaculate Parish, at
Louann’s in Dallas, Sunday June 2.
It will prove to be a happy oc-
casion, a chance to have a good
deal of fun and help your parish at
the same time. But, not only are
you invited; ask your friends, re-
lations and acquaintances all over
the area. It is centrally located and
there will be something of great
interest to everyone. Games,
prizes, dinners, refreshments and
the whole gamut of things neces-
sary for a good time.
There will be no Holy Week
services in our chapel, as we can-
not keep the Blessed Sacrament
there because there is no priest in
residence on the premises. How-

TWO-MILLIONTtf FORD

RED CROSS PLAYS
MAJOR ROLE AFTER
TORNADO DISASTER
Red Cross has played a major
role following tornado devastation
which struck Dallas Tuesday,
April 2.
Within an hour after the tor-
nado struck again and again, Red
Cross was on the job. Two emer-
gency shelters were set up im-
mediately in the midst of the most
damaged areas. One at St. Mary's
Hall on Singleton Road, the other
at Camp Kiwanis on Bachman
Drive.
As the tornado lifted from Dal-
las, the Dallas County Red Cross
galvanized into action. Hundred
of workers and volunteers re-
ported to chapter headquarters to
be assigned to disaster relief jobs.
Disaster operations were organized
and ready for action within an
hour.
Shocked, injured and homeless
tornado victims reported in droves
throughout the night, for treat-
ment, food, clothing and shelter.
Mobile and canteen units sped
from chapter house to shelters,
bringing medicinal supplies, food
for victims and disaster workers,
and cots and bedding so the now
homeless could be sheltered for
the night.
During the first two days of
emergency, over 23,000 cups of
coffee were served to victims and
May the promise of life everlasting lift your
heart and bring peace to your spirit
during this happy Easter season.
The Dallas County
State Bank
(Formarly Thu Carrollton Stoto Bonk)
Working to make a good County—better
rescue workers. 2,000 plus dough-
nuts and 3,500 sandwiches were
also furnished and served by Red
Cross canteen service. These were
supplemented by complete hot
meals to those in the emergency
shelters.
This help given by Red Cross
following a disaster is an outright
gift of the American people,
through their contributions to an-
nual Red Cross fund campaigns
throughout the country.
Many weeks of hard work lie
ahead for Dallas disaster victims—
and for the Dallas County Red
Cross. But this is the purpose for
Red Cross. Many years ago the
federal government designated
Red Cross as the official volunteer
disaster relief agency of the
American people. It is the way in
which people all over the country
—their neighbors— are helping
the Dallas people help themselves.
