Gene Floyd Recoils
Atomic Bomb Survey
Atomic bomb surveys, ancient tribes of tattooed women,
and Holstein cattle on a northern Japanese island are among
the memories of Gene Floyd, new director of men's activities
for the Penn State Christian Association.
Mr. Floyd, who has recently been discharged from the
NAvy after duty as a communications officeer with Admiral
Nimitz, served on the U.'S. S. Haines with the Strategic Bomb
Survey Group and toured Japan, noting. the damages inflict
ed by the Navy.
4 was while he travelled in this group that Mr
• .
visited. Hiros,hima and viewed the results of the first
bomb. Fantastic empty
dings loomed ominously from
the otife - rwise barren and. dis
ol.ate ground. Closer inspection
Showed'these structures to be hol
low shells containing absolutely
nothing. It seemed -to. Mr. Floyd
that every piece of furniture had
mySteriously disintegrated to a
fine dust.
Eerie creatures wandered aim
lessly through the wilderness that
was once a city as a few coura
geous Japanese, smeared with a
white salve to cover their burns,
sought futiley to find a trace of
their homes. Radioactive rays had
disappearea and these were the
first of the fortunate survivors to
enter the place that was Hiro
shima.
JApanese Not Antagonistic --
Destruction reigned over all the
important Japanesecities, for
each had received its of the
Navy's shelling and Army's bomb
ing, as Mr.. Floyd discovered on
his trip. Curious Japanese watch
ed the new ihvaders as this group
was often the first to enter a town.
The people were at times indiffer
ent or morbidly curious, but nev
er openly antagonistic. They had
been told they were at peace, and
they obeyed their =Emperor.

were among the, members of an
ancient' tribe of Ainus that Mr.
Floyd visited on a side trip. He
talked, through an interpreter, to
the '62-year-old chief of the 16,-
000 natives, who is now running
for Japanese parliament 'and.
with his'tribe's support, will prob
ably be successful. This ancient
tribe of Hokkaido island still uses
poisoned arrows and clubs and
-are thick chested and bearded.
Holstein Cattle, on Hokkaido
Holstein cattle were another
interest of Hokkaido and a puzzle
too. By doing a little private re
search, Mr. Floyd discovered that
an American interested in agri-
Culture had taken them to__ this
cold, barren island and developed
them there.
Before entering the service, Mr.
Floyd attended Hamlin College at
St. Paul, Minn.; Washburn Uni
versity at Topeka, Kan.; and Bos
ton University for theological
work. He also directed the YMCA
at the University of Nebraska,
while his wife was interested in
music there. •
The new director of men's ac
tivities for the Christian Associv
tion hopes to surpass the pre-war
work with the aid of the returned
servicemen and with them Mr.
Floyd intends to start bigger and
better plans.
