W?IAT ARE YOUR CHANCES?
a modern A-bpmib. exploded
without warning; in the dU;''over
pur/ home town ] tonight,, ydur
culatepl .chpnces of' living, through
the' raid would. run, sonietlxlng like
this;-Cyril 0. Ryan, .director.of dyil
Defense for Freeport, said today:
Should you happen to be one of
the unludky people right under the
bomb, there Is practically no-hope*
of living through it. In fact, any-where
within half a mile of the
center of the explosion, your chances
of escaping are about 1 out of 10.
On the othr hand, and this is
:he Important point, from one-half
X) one mile away, you have a 50-
50 chance.
From one mile to one and a half
miles out, the odds that you will be
killed are only 15 In 100. '
And at points from a mile- and a
half to -two miles away, deaths drop
all the way down to only 2 or 3
out of each 100.
Beyond 2 miles, the explosion will
cause practically no deaths.at all,
. Naturally, your chances of being
injured are far grsatcr than your
chances of being killed. But even
injury by radioactivity does not
mean that you will be left a cripple,
or doomed "to. die an early death.
Your chances of making a complete
recovery are much the same as for
everyday accidents. These estimates
hold good for modem atomic bomba
exploded without warning; /
WHAT ABOUT SUPER BOMBS?

Imaginary, weapons a hundred - pi*

The four general contracts for
the new Bayvlew ave, school were
awarded at a meeting of the Board
of-Ed»cation~heId-Wednesday-n*ghtr
Dec, 6. They are as follows: Gen-eral
construction, Jonwar'Construc-tion

Plumbing, inc., $114,735; plumbing

electric, Bank Electric Co., $80,520.
To keep ^vithin the $1,300,000 ap-propriated
for the structure by the
residents of the school district It"
was necessary to make certain de-
^-^"ris and temporarily eliminate
some features originally planned for
the school and yet provide 23 class-rooms'
gymnasium, auditorium and
cafeteria. These can,be restored la-ter
after a Vote has been taken on
a bond Issue to meet the additional
past, how estimated at $200,000, but
the members of the Board, felt that
to reject the.blds_atithls. time, would_
result in adding greatly to the cost
of ,lhe project and decided to take
what appeared the best course of
action. "

•n .the same way, if there were a
bomb 100 times as powerful,, it
would reach out only a little more
than -four and a half miles* not 100.
remember: All these calcu-lations
of your chances of survival
assume that you' have absolutely no'
advance. warning of tl?e attack.
, Just like fire bombs and ordinary
high explosives/ atomic weapons
cause most of their .death and* dam-age
by blast and he,at. So. first let's
ook at a feiv things you can do to
escape these two dangers.
WHAT ABOUT BLAST?
Even if you have only a second's
warning, there is ,ond Important
thing you can. do to lesson your
chances of Injury by blast: . Fall
flat on your face.
More than half of all wounds are
the. result of. -being bodily.. tossed
about or being struck by falling and
flying objects, ]^f you .have time jbo
pick a good spot, there is less chance
of your being struck by flying glass
and other things.
If you are inside a building, the
beat 'place to (latten out Is close
against the cellar wall. I-f you have-n<
t*tlme to get down there, lie, down
along an inside wall, or duck u nder
a, bed or table. But don't pick a
spot, righk opposite the. widows or
you . are: . almost sure to be peltejl
with shattered glass/ .. . , . .
'If caught but-of -doors, either
drop down alongside the ;base of a
good substantial building .^ avoid
sMamsy, wooden' ones likely ,to be
Mown o?e)r oa.top of you— or else
jupip in .: any Aandy ditch , or gutter,
