We talked to Jim Pinniger, clerk
of the works on the new campus,
on Thursday and he reported that
the contractors are pouring con
crete floor slabs in the laboratory
building In order to protect the
concrete from the freezing at
night they have covered the win-
dows with vinyl plastic and have!
seven salamanders, which are a
type of heater like those used in
orchards, to heat the protected
part of the building.
In order to indicate the size of
I lie building, Pinniger mentioned
that" there is one and one-tenth
acres under the roof of each of
the two buildings. The contrac
tors are also connecting the water
Ifnes from the hot water wells to
the heat exchange building where
me boiler and exchange equip
ment is located. Most of the
frames for windows are in the lab
oratory building and they expect
to start installing the glass with
in the next 10 days.
According to Pinniger, the con
tractors are making normal prog
ress during the -winter months.
The contract calls for a May com
pletion date, but there is no real
hurry because the buildings can
not be used until all are com
pleted. It is the contractors who
will build the next increment of
buildings who will be under pres
sure to meet the completion date.
Several letters have been written
lo instructors recently which in-!
dicate what students are doing in1
the field. Professor Bob DeRosicr
received a letter from Jim Ono,
a June, 1962, graduate from elec
Ironies who is working at the Law
rence 'Radiation Laboratories at
I.ivcrmore. Calif. Jim's brother
ftoland, also graduated in X-ray
a couple of years ago and now is
working as an X-ray technician in
Mfdford
Both of the boys were born In
the United States. Their dad took
them back to Japan and they
were caught there when the war
broke out and couldn't get back.
The boys were doing exercises
in tlie yard at a school near
the edge of Hiroshima when the
first atomic bomb flattened the
center part of the city. Alter the
war both were in the U.S. Army
Itoland earned the Hiram Hunt
Science Award during his senior
year and Jim won the Don Orrcll
Electronics Award last spring.
The following are a couple of
quotes from Jim's letter: "So 1
am assigned lo the Instrument
Calibration Department and
working mostly with Tektronix
equipment. We have OTI men
and it seems like OTI is taking
over the calibration department.1
. . "I have enclosed a postcard
of Buddhist Church which I go to
every Sunday. I thought you
might be interested in the land
scaping."
The second quote Is the result of
Bob's special interest in architec

lure. Before Jim graduated, he
presented DeRosier a book on Ja
panese architecture which he
prizes very highly.
Surveying instructor, Julian
Ager, received a letter from
surveying graduate who is on a
surveying crew in Washington
The following excerpts tell a little
about his job: "The highway from
Seattle to Easton is four-lane. The
present job is extending the four
lanes to CleElum. In this 12-mile
road there are 13 bridges and
over-crossings. Two rivers to
cross and 11 interchanges). Our
work was running center-line;
slope-staking; setting right-of-way
and clearing lines; and establish
nig over-crossing locations; as
well as 'on- and off-ramps ' "
mere are lour ot us in our
crew. I am a 1-5 and my duty is
instrumcntman and party-chief,
The other three are T-3s or T-2s
and have been with the state at
least 10 years." , . . "Just after
I began work in June one of the
crew approached me and asked
about OTI. He began work in Feb
ruary and was a T-l and couldn't
see waiting 10 years to become a
T-3 if he could go to school and
become a T-5 after two years."
The next two quotes are from
a letter to electronics professor,
Paul Chitwood, from an electron
ics graduate who is employed
with the Federal Aviation Agency
Alaska: My take-home pay
a GS-5 is . $221 every two!
weeks. This includes two Satur-I
days overtime and the 25 per cent
cost of living allowance When I
make by GS-7 the 18th of this
month it will go to about $265
take home pay every two weeks."
I am working in what they
call the 'frame room' here at
Merrill Field. It's what you might
call the hub of the communica
tions system for the FA A in Alas
ka. This includes teletype, phone
and radio link. When 1 first saw
the place I didn't think it would
be possible for a person to learn
everything he should know to tunc-
tion efficiently in the place. But
it's finally starling lo make
sense "
Another letter lo Chitwood indi
cates that the graduate is really
impressed with his job: The;
work has been very interesting
lately, working for Will Siri,
checking and changing electronic
gear for his trek up Mt. Everest
next year. I have also been do
ing some design and construction!
of worm training devices for Dr.
Calvin and his bi-orgamc group.
The February Scientific American!
should have a write-up on his
work with worms and DNA." ,
"I am very happy with my 10
per cent increase, making $600
and looking forward to more. But,
odd lo me at least, is the thrill
of working with top brains ie
Nobel Prize men and people un
der 25 working for their Ph.D.
All in all it is pretty wonderful
and I want to thank you both for
the education and the recommen
dation." 3. Mrs. Vandenberg - Mrs. Oscar

Charles Lederer Takes
Office As Modoc Judge

eighth judge lo the superior court
of California took his oath of of
fice Monday, Jan. 7. Judge Leder
er assumed his office and held his
first court jointly with retiring
Judge A. K. Wylie Monday after
noon with a courtroom full of
liiends and well wishers in at
tendance. L. C. Smith, Redding attorney,
told the court of the fine
association with Judge Lederer in
the past 25 years. "Both for and
against each other," Smith said,
"I have nothing but admiration
for Charles Lederer and can hon
estly say that he has always
worked with integrity and honesty
in his profession."
Attorney Ross Bigler of Yrcka
presented the new Modoc County
judge with his robe of office as
a gift from the Yrcka Bar Asso
ciation. Bigler was formerly asso
ciated with Lederer in Altui'as be
fore moving to Yrcka.
Judge Wylie gave a brief history
of the judges of Modoc County
and emphasized his warm regard
for the new judge. He pointed
out the fitness of the Yreka Bar
Association presenting the judge
with his new robe of office, as
Modoc County was once a part
of Siskiyou County.
Lederer was born in Brooklyn,
N.Y. He studied for the bar at
the Oakland College of Law, and
