Northwest Log
Trains Continue
To 'Do the Job'
Portland, Ore. - (UPD - The
Northwest's old-time logging
trains refuse to be relegated
to the junk piles of history.
"Don't bury the log train,
young fella," admonished the
veteran railroader. "It Isn't
dead yet."
And he's right!
The loaded log trains, wrig
gling like giant caterpillars
on gleaming rails, are still
doing the job of the "long
haul" for the Weyerhaeuser
Timber Co. in the woods of
Washington and Oregon.
Some of the railroaders who
run these trains have been
at their jobs for three dec
ades. Ray Essena, engineer of the
"481" out of Vail deep In
Washington's southwest forest
lands, and Otto Stolp, fire
man, are the last of the ori
ginal crews which hauled the
first logs out to South Bay
on Puget Sound some 30
years ago.
Veterans With Company
Essena has been on a com
pany train crew since 1023.
And Dennis Kell, "481" con
ductor, has worked for the
company for more than 29
years.
Part of the tradition of
these old-time railroaders is
the special language they de
veloped and used.
The engineer Is known as
a "hogger." The fireman Is
a "tallow pot." Brakemen are
called "pin heads." The
switchman is known as a
"snake." The flagman is a
"parlog boy," and the conduc
tor is referred to as the "con"
or "skipper."
Miles of track have been
torn up in recent years as
log trucks have taken over
much of the hauling in the
woods. But as the old-time
railroader don't hesitate to
tell you, some of the logs
will be moving over the rails
for a long time to come.

Summer Science
I Jobs Available
I For Students
j Washington, (Science Serv-ice)-Summer
jobs for high
school and college students
are again available in sclen-
II unc nems. Available, that is,
I to the farsighted young per
I son who starts looking now.
Federal Jobs in weather re
search, physics, soil science
research, entomology, statis
tics, genetics, chemistry, met
allurgy and even ocean
ography and archaeology are
all open to college students;
many o these are also open
to high school students.
Ask for Information
1. Write to the U.S. Civil
Service Commission, Wash
ington 25, D.C., and ask for
pamphlet 45, "Summer Em
ployment in Federal Agen
cies," and for information on
the student trainee program
under which most scientific
jobs fall.
At the same time, ask for
a student trainee application
blank. Students who apply by
April 15 will be tested (for
three hours) on May 3.
2. Check with state employ
ment offices and directly with
state hospitals, laboratories
and research units.
3. Write to the Association
of Private Camps Inc., 55
West 42nd St., New York 36,
N.Y., and ask about natural
ist, geological and other science-related
jobs in private
camps.
4. Look over your local in
dustries, colleges, hospitals
and museums. Museums of
natural history may be able
to offer field work, maybe
mapping area caves.
Good Experience
Campus research founda
tions may set students to
work washing test tubes and
feeding mice, but even mac
is good experience for learn
ing the ins ana outs oi sci
ence. As tor hospital work.
aide and laboratory work is
not necessarily restricted to
pre-med students.
And here are some oti-neav
science-related jobs that will
be hard to get but worth the
trouble:
1. Roughnecklng, which in
volves building rigs for oil-
drilling.
2. Being guinea pig lor psy
chological tests at universi
ties and foundations.
3. Mining, which may in
clude engineering, metallurgy
and geology. Some mining
jobs are available in Alaska.
Nature's Accident

Of Pentosuria
nnstnn - (Science Service) -
A chemical "accident of na
ture" responsible for pentosuria-
mild and nondlsabling
disease characterized by ex

been partially pinpointed here
tltn frnm Beth Israel
Hospital and Harvard Medi
cal School.
Thnii- finHlntrs nrovide a
new means of detecting car
riers of the disease trait and
way to distinguish pentosuria
from diabetes. In pentosuria,
patients excrete large
amounts of 1,-xyiuiose, a sugar-molecule
with five carbon
atoms. Diabetics excrete ex
cessive glucose, a sugar mole
mle with six carbon atoms.
Eniyme Lacked
People with pentosuria ap
parently cannot convert L
xylulose to an alcohol called
xylltol because they lack the
enzyme that catalyzes me re
riinn Thp nresumed reason
they lack the enzyme Is that
they lack the gene mai con-,
