- One Klamath Falls man with
the navy air corDS coming bock
to the United States had an ex
perience hell not soon forgst.
Burt Leroy Allbritton, tor
pedoman 3c, from Klamath
Falls, was a passenger on a sea
plane with 22 other men when
the plane had to make a forced
oceanic landing, 135 miles from
shore.
Another passenger on the
plane was Lt. Comdr. "Tex"
Oliver, former University of Ore
gon football coach. His de
scription of the landing was as
follows:
"We smacked into the waves
and bounced 100 yards, he said
"We hit them again and bounced
another 100. Each time we'd
leave the water about 50 feet.
I didn't know whether we were
coming down on the water or go
ing to nose over and dive into
it. We came down the third
time on our belly and miracu
lously everything held together.'
The quick, coordinated use of
Pacific air-sea rescue facilities
brought a plane over the crashed
seaplane, 95 minutes after the!
landing. Five and a half hours
later a surface vessel took the
crew and passengers aboard. 1
The rescue ship dragged the
seaplane to the Pacific bascl

What makes a train run?
When a train such as the Cascade, Overland Limited, Golden State Limits
or Sunset Limited thunders by, all you're conscious of is the thrill of a
thousand tons of steel going places. You may catch a brief, friendly wave
from the engineer, but he's ahout the only man you see.
The purpose of this advertisement is to take you behind the scenes and
show you how many men and women are necessary to make a train run. The
locomotives, cars and tracks are only the tools with which these people work.
Beside the Engineer and Fireman, a
long distance train usually carries!
' Railroad end Pullman Conductors;
Brakemen, Porters, Steward, Cooks;
Waiters, Baggagemen, Mail Clerk;
' Express Messenger. For example, our
streamlined Daylight (San Frandsco
Lob Angeles), requires 62 people.
2 Track Workers "manicure" every foot
of Southern Pacific's 15,000 miles of
line. Carpenters and Bridge and
Building Men maintain the countless
bridges, tunnels and trestles.
3 Signalmen, Electricians and Linemen
regularly inspect and repair the thou
sands of miles of wire, and all the sig
nals, motors and apparatus it takes to
run trains safely and on time.
I Dispatchers control the movements of.
r trains, sometimes automatically by
"Centralized Traffic Control" (see
ibove). Telegraphers receive train
orders and report train movements.
5 lubricators, Greasemen, Boiler Inspec
