Amateur Radio Club Participates in Nation-Wide Test The Hill's radio hamstook part in a nation-widetest of emergency equipment and operators last weekend. The local group used the lodge on the Sawyer’s Hill ski run as the operating base and was a link in two state-wide directed emergency networks, using both phone and radiotelegraphy. Robert Freyman, emergencycoordinator of the Los Alamos club, reported that for the first trme on the two meter band, contact was made with Sandia Peak and Albuquerque groups.

South Mesa Road Opens Local drivers will have a chance this weekend to see the new South Mesa Access Road forthe first time since it was completed. Designed primarily to provide a high-speed direct route to the new White Rock suburb, it also eases the traffic congestion in the townsite proper. Los Alamos Becomes County There was no band, no parade, no formal celebration, but instead a quiet, solemn sort of rejoicing, not unmixed with trepidation, as Los Alamos citizens became residents of New Mexico's 32nd and newest county. The first commissioners to hold office are Phillip Belcher, attorney, assistant in the Department of Classification and Security for the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory; Frank C. DiLuzio, AEC administrator; and Cecil A. Badsgard. Zia Companycraft superintendent for maintenance. The AEC will furnish space and equipment as well as the services of office and legal personnel until the new countygets on its feet.
