P en dergra ss, CIH William Robinson Bradley was born January 31, 1908, in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Wmafred Skennan, head librarian ot the Saint Paul- Minneapolis school system knew of the birth and advised her friends, William Edwin Bradley. M.D., and his wife. Eva Robinson Bradley, who had been looking for a child to adopt. At the age of nine days, young William rode the Minneapolis and Saint Louis Railroad to his new home in Estherville, Iowa. Dr. Bradley was a pioneer physician and surgeon in this small County Seat town in northwest Iowa. The Bradleys were good Christians who helped build the Presbyterian Church and a small hospital. Mrs. Bradley was the superintendent of the primary department of the Sunday school for 42 years. And so began a life that became a pioneering adventure in the mainte nance of good health for people gainfully employed. William was a good student. In his senior year in high school, the State of Iowa Historical Society sponsored an essay contest for seniors. Three prizes were to be presented for the best essays or stories of local history. William's essay told of a recent mete orite that Hew over a city park band concert and landed on his laboratoiy.

Before getting into the chronology of William's education, it next two years, he studied the basic sciences of medicine. By d is necessary to make an introduction. In his sophomore year. time he was convinced that he did not want to return to his hot William signed up for Biology I. A freshman girl, Elizabeth town and go into practice with his father. Bill and Beth we Marion Skcwis. was also a member of that class. Bill noticed married that summer. that she was very pretty. The first lesson was an introduction to Jobs were not easy to come by in the early days of the Gre the microscope. Professor Kelly asked the class to look at their Depression. Teaching in the public schools was a possibiln microscopes and tell him what the magnification would be. More education was needed, so Bill enrolled in Buena Vis While the rest of the class made guesses of three to ten. Bill waited for his turn to respond. He had learned about microscopes from bis father. Bill's answer was. "Professor. I have a I0X ocular and a I0X lens, so the magnification is I0 times I0. or I00."Professor Kelly and Miss Skewis were both favorably impressed. Appar ent!} Professor Kelly was not aware of the impressions that William and Elizabeth had made on each other. He assigned seats and laborator\ space alphabetical!}. There were not enough tables in the mam laboratory for all of the students, so Elizabeth and two other students were assigned to tables in an adjoining College in Storm Lake, Iowa. He qualified for a teaching cei ti cate after one semester of education courses. For the next thr years. Mr. Bradley was a high school science teacher. His intert in the medical sciences continued. Seeking a background toxicology, he enrolled in the Umverstt} oi Iowa. Depaitrm- of Biology. Thiee summer schools were spent doing graduate work the Iowa West Okaboji Lake.

William asked the doctors how the lead and silica got into the body, how they caused illness symptoms, what organs were affected, and was there a cure for these diseases. The answers were that the doctors did not know and were not interested in finding out. In spite of this introduction, in July 1937. Bill Bradleyjoined the newly organized Bureau of Industrial Hygiene, Detroit. Michigan. Department of Health. There he worked with William Fredrick, Ph.D., Herbert T. Walworth, and Carey P. McCord, M.D. Dr. McCord was the half-time director of the bureau. Of particular concern were the large numbers oflead intoxication cases in the automotive industry. There were needs for new trace analytical chemistry techniques, new instruments, and positive mechanical exhaust hood enclosures to be tried and perfected. Industrial toxicology was another special need. At their own expense and outside of their Detroit Department \ of Health duties, Bill Bradley and Bill Fredrick developed a t o l o g y laboratory. Space was rented, cages built, and es ment purchased. Their experiments were done on guinea pigs, white rats, mice, and a few rabbits. They bred the rats and mice that were used in their experiments. About 3000 animals were used in the testing of chemicals found in Detroit industries. Bill Bradley dosed the animals, performed autopsies, deter mined pathology, while Bill Fredrick did the chemistry and , record keeping. The LDso data that they developed were most useful in their industry studies. Unfortunately, general publication was not permitted by the companies from which the chemicals were obtained. Private studies involving tracheotomy introduc tion of chemicals, free silica, and asbestos into lungs were done) and published. During this time. Bradley took a few refresher courses in second year medicine at Wayne State College of \ Medicine in Detroit. /-- Looking back on Detroit, Bill remembers a four-month study of eight cases of premature infants. These studies demon strated that the basophilic aggregation cells found in the blood people exposed to lead were the same as in the premature infants. It was deduced that lead stored in the long bones was 'interrupting the hemopoietic system. When the concentration of ihese cells reached a certain level, toxic symptoms would develop. The basophilic aggregation cell blood test was widely used to determine if a lead worker was about to enter the early stages of 'end intoxication. It was during this same study that Bill noticed that there was a death rate of premature babies born during the winter n is. He developed a portable "preme ambulance"that Public health Nurses could use to keep the baby warm while transport ing it to the hospital to be placed in an incubator. Seseral of these were used by the Detroit Department of Health, and the death rate dropped dramatically among the premature iniants The design was copied and used in other cities. During the Detroit days. Bill and Beth adopted two infants, a boy and a girl As Bill's parents had done, these children were adopted soon after birth and directly from the hospital. The bo\ was named Charles William and the girl. Caroline Beth Charles did not have any children, but the Bradleys have enjoyed being grandparents and great grandparents to Caroline's children and grandchildren. On January 1, 1943, Bill joined Frank Patty at the Fidelitv and Casualty Insuiance Company in New York City. This phase ol their careers ended abruptly on June 30, 1944. Bill declares that they were fired because they had done too good a job in controlling occupational disease among the insured. Insurance brokers were losing money on premiums. Nevertheless, Bill immediately went to American Cyanamid in New York and Frank to General Motors in Detroit. Both reported to medical directors. Bill to Donald Hamblin and Frank to Clarence Selby. During his nearly 17 years at Cyanamid. Bill built a highly respected industrial hygiene group. One major challenge was the Arco, Idaho, Spent Fuel Chemical Reduction P la n t built and operated by Cyanamid. Bill's staff increased to 10 industrial hygienistsand 15 health physicists. No overexposure cases devel oped during Cyanamid s operation of the facility. The introduction of the organic phosphate insecticides pre sented an entirely new set of problems for industrial hygiene. Not only did the workers who manufactured these products have to be protected but also those who would be using them. Under Bill's leadership, programs were developed and impletmented to provide information to users along with training, olood tests, and site visits. Several species of animals, including a faw cows, were confined in the citrus groves of Florida, Texas, jfnd California. Blood samples were collected before and after ^spraying. Air samples were collected from the spraying vehicles during their operation. From these studies and some human blood data, it was determined that malathion could be safely used as a general area spray insecticide. Later similar studies were conducted to determine the precautions necessary to safely use "T h im et,''an o th er but m ore toxic organic phosphate insecticide. For those of us who were a part of the industrial hygiene program at Cyanamid. it was evident that Bill had gained the respect of management from the president all through the com pany. What industrial hygienists said was regarded as fact. The industrial hygienists had, through Bill, authority to shut down operations if we felt that it was necessary to protect the health of the workers. A tenet of industrial hygiene at Cyanamid under Bill Bradley's direction was evaluation of the problem. Included in the many extensive studies that were conducted in addition to the organic phosphate pesticides were nitroglycerin-ethylene glycol dinitrate, fluorides, formaldehyde, and chlorine. Shortly after World War 11, Bill acquired an interferometer. This was an instrument that could be used to measure the con centration of organic vapor in the air. To say that the instrument was rare is an understatement. Its use in industrial hygiene was id Hyg Assoc J loll May 1990 A-34 e\en raiei 1Ins interferometei was about 3 feet long, S to 10 inches in diameter, and moderately heavy. It did not come with a carrying or shipping case; instead, a golf bag was pressed into service lor transport and protection of the instrument. As with so many instruments of the period it could not be checked as baggage on airplanes or trains. Invariably there were comments about the golf bag. Air pollution control was a part of industrial hygiene at comprehensive piaeuce ol industrial hygiene with ccuific number 2. When you start with the grass roots there is a tenclenc> remember them. While Bill served in the national organizaiu of the professions, he also has been active in local affairs He i been a member of three A1HA local sections. He was a direc and president of both the Metropolitan New York Section t the New Jersey Section. He has been active in the Califor Cyanamid.
