ATOMIC BOMB Life Savers By ERNEST VANDIVER Director of Civil Defense, State of Georgia What should I do if I am caught in the open in a sneak attack? How will I know exactly when the bomb goes off? ' The blinding flash of the explosion will be your first warning; it is a light that enters everywhere. No matter where you are, your first move ment is to dive for the ground. Outdoors, if you are within a step or two of a doorway, get there quickly. Otherwise, dive for the ground, shielding your eyes and face in the crook of your arm. Indoors, if you’re near a bed, desk or couch dive for it; otherwise just dive for the floor, keeping away from windows. Act instantly—your maximum tijne limit may be only one to three seconds. Is a sneak attack possible? Unfortunately, yes. Our defenses are not yet perfect, and a skillful enemy may get through to our cities without being detected. at Cordele is set for Oct 26-31 un der the sponsorship of the Cordele Lions Club.
