cording to the evidence and the same was murdered by a creature with adam rays of superhuman strength and a creature that cannot be killed by  low you're flying you will stop all planes and trucks searching for radioactivity if you do not many people will be killed there will be no other warning  fresh cup of smooth chocolatey good jubilee hot chocolate such a comforting special kind of greinke and a favorite with folks of all ages not just that goes down really easy this time of night makes you feel warm and altogether wonderful turtle just good friends because every one of us must remember to do the same thing that's what this film is all about and cover this is an official civil defense film produced in cooperation with the federal civil defense of ministration and i n consultation with the safety commission of the national education association produced by archer productions incorporated a bird made all these nice people please all right i really duck and cover just as you do in your school we all know the atomic bomb is very dangerous since it may be used against us we must get ready for it just as we are ready for many other dangers that are around us all the time fire is a danger it can burn whole buildings if someone is careless but we are ready for fire we have a fine fire department to put out the fire and you have fire drills in your school so you know what to do automobiles can be dangerous too sometimes cause bad accidents we already have safety rules that car drivers and people who are walking must obey now we must be ready for a new danger t first you have to know what happens when an atomic bomb explodes you will know when it comes we hope it never comes but we must get ready it looks something like this there is a bright flash brighter than the sun brighter than anything you've ever seen if you are not ready and did not know what to do it could hurt you in different ways it could knock you down hard or throw you against a tree or a wall it is such a big explosion it can smash in buildings and knock signboards over and break windows all over town but if you duck and cover it will be much safer if you know how bad sunburn can feel the atomic bomb blast could burn you worse than a terrible sunburn atomic bomb explodes and her teacher is explaining that there are two kinds of attack with a warning and without any warning i think that most of the time we will be warned before the bomb explodes so there will be time for us to get into our home schools or some other safe place our civil defense workers men in uniform will do everything they can to warn us before enemy planes can bring a bomb near you maybe in your school yard playing when the signal know where you are to go or ask an older person to help you know the places marked with a s i and there are safe places to go when you hear the alarm if there is a warning you will hear it before the bomb explode sometimes and this is very very important sometimes the bomb might explode without any warning and the first thing we would know about it would be the flash and that means duck and cover fast wherever you are there's no time to look around or wait like bert when there is a flash duck and cover and do it fast here are some older boys showing what to do with the flash comes when you are not in the classroom this is what to do if you should be in a card or duck and cover or type against the wall this way remember to keep your face in the back of your neck covered tightly try to fall away from windows or doors with glass in them and if the glass breaks and flies through the air it won't cut you you might be eating your lunch when the flies come duck and cover under the table then if the explosion makes anything in the room fall down it can fall on you getting ready means we will all have to be able to take care of ourselves a bomb might explode when there are no grownups near poland that you know this and they are always ready to take care of themselves they are on their way to school on a beautiful spring day but no matter where they go or what they do they always try to remember what to do with the atom bomb explodes right then it's a bomb can cover it all and know what to  do cover the back of his head so that he wouldn't be burned and patty covered herself with the coach she was carrying they knew how to duck and cover they acted right away when the flash came if they had been at this doorway when the bomb pla paul and ted a would have ducked and covered this way like this girl heavy doorways are a good place to duck and cover she will be safer to tony going to his cub scout meeting tony knows a bomb can explode that's where he ducked and covered tony knew what to do notice how he keeps from moving or from getting up and running he stays down until you're sure the danger is over the man helping tony the civil defense worker his job is to help protect us when there is danger of the atomic bomb we must obey a civil defense worker we must know how to duck and cover in the school bus or in any other bus or streetcar d on't wait go away from the windows fast the glass may break and flying through the air and cut you sundays holidays that cajun time we must be ready every day all the time to do the right thing at the atomic bomb explodes this family knows what to do just as your own family should know that even a thin cloth helps protect them even a newspaper can save you from a bad burn the most important thing of all is to duck and cover yourself especially when your clothes do not cover you no matter where we live in the city of the country we must be ready all the time for the atomic bomb to save ourselves at the atomic bomb ever explodes near us you do not know just what to do ask your
