Auel, 2155 Roberts rd., Medford has been appoint ed field secretary, of the Ore gon All-Jersey association, now engaged in a campaign to strengthen its milk marketing arrangements throughout the state. Auel assumed his new duties last month after resigning from his post as manager of the South ern Oregon Milk Producers lea gue, which he held during the past four years. -His record in developing a wider distribution plan for the milk producers in this section, together with his familiarity with the many problems of the dairy industry at this time, were responsible for his selection to take charge of the campaign for this state wide association, it was announced. "His duties include organiza tion and milk control work as well as pooling the milk for this large group," according to a re cent article in the Oregon Jersey Review. ... ' j "The Board realized in Febru ary that increasing shipments and the annual flush period would make necessafry some form of arrangement comparable to the former quota system. "There being a general dislike of the term 'quota' however, a form of marketing agreement was prepared and William Auel, recently engaged as field secre tary with wide experience in such matters, was given the as signment of setting up the bot tle and can figures for all ship pers, the announcement ex plains. ' Auel will retain his home in Medford although his duties necessitate spending much of his time in other parts of the state Delay of Atomic Bomb Explosion Coos Coffee Chicago U.R) Four hundred i cups of coffee get cold every time the AEC delays an atomic bomb test in Nevada.

Railroad Safety Awards Presented Washington (U.R) Half a century ago a 2V2-year-old Ne braska boy concluded it was time to i see the world, so he shoul dered his sand box shovel and lit out. Presently he came upon a main-line railroad and decided that the ties between the tracks would make a swell foundation for a rock castle. He was busy with his con struction job when a freight train came roaring into view. The engineer applied the brakes. The alert fireman scrambled to the engine pilot, leaned over and scooped the child clear just as the locomotive rumbled over the spot. The boy was unhurt, but the fireman, losing his grip, fell be neath the train. Both arms were broken and one foot was crushed so badly it had to be amputated. Later, that fireman was pre sented the Presidential Medal of Honor by Theodore Rooseveit. Thus he became the first recipi ent of the railroad safety award established by act of Congress in 1905 "to promote the security of travel upon railroads." George H. PoelL the heroic fireman of the St. Joseph & Grand Island Railway, was the first among 56 trainmen to be so honored. Almost every type of railroad worker is represented in the honor list, but the largest num ber of citations have been be stowed on train service em ployees. Thirty-seven of the total saved persons who for some rea son or another showed up in the path of oncoming trains.
