Blower at No. 1 Cat Unit is one of the jobs of Clauis Lamb,
machinist trainee, during the current turnaround. The blower
cools catalyst as it passes through tubes carrying it back into
the catalytic cracking operation. Lamb is one of the 400 men
who are working on the unit each day. The Cat came down
Thursday, April 29, for emergency repairs but stayed down
for a general turnaround. The unit is scheduled to be turned
over to operators by mechanics on June 7. A turnaround at
SR-43, originally scheduled for May 10, will be postponed
until No. 1 Cat is back in service.

WORK WILL begin Monday

floor area of about 4,800 square
