Haunting Whistle
Will Be No More
Buffalo, N.Y. (C No more
more will that haunting train
whistle in the night be heard
on the Pennsylvania Rail
road's northern regional lines.
Beginning Dec. 1, all of the
Pennsy's trains in the region
were powered by diesel en
gines. Some 300 diesels took
over the chores which once
required approximately 800
steam locomotives.
Since World War II steam
has been disappearing gradu
ally from the Pennsylvania's
rails. Arrival of new diesels,
end of the lake season and "the
downward trend in business
brought complete dieseliza
tion of the region months
ahead of schedule.

Zoo Hopeful of
Emu Hatching
Memphis HP) The Mem
phis Zoo Is hoping for Its first
hatching of an emu, a beauti
ful flightless relative of the
ostrich.
Zoo Director Raymond
Gray said the eggs are usually
laid at night, to be found by
attendants the next morning
by which time they are chill
ed or frozen. Last year, two
eggs failed to hatch, one be
ing too soft and the other too
hard.
"I was making my usual
tour of the zoo before going
home when the emu caught
my attention," Gray said
"The bird was standing rather
stiffly upright, mouth open,
and seemed to be concentra
ting. As I watched, she laid
this beautiful egg."
Gray said the egg is about
five inches long.
. IX s greener than grass,
not a .pastel, but almost a
moss green. It is a perfect
egg. not too hard, and not too
soft. It is unlike a chicken
egg in that it is elliptical, not
bigger at one end than the
other.".
The egg Is being carefully
turned in a warm storage
room at the zoo and will soon
be put into an incubator.
"If we hit the humidity
right, it is quite possible the
egg will hatch," Gray said.
Gray said the incubator is
a must. The zoo's peafowl,
which are allowed to run
loose, have a habit of laying
eggs along the edges of side
walks. Zoo attendants keep
a sharp watch when making
their rounds and any eggs
found are turned over to the
incubation department.
"Occassionally, we miss
one, ne said, "and some
times the mother peafowl
manages to hatch the egg her
self. We always take the
young ones and put them in
a wire cage. Even if it is
fully feathered, a baby pea
fowl left to roam around on
the ground will get wet and
die."
