of the importance of safety
and the necessity of not con-
gesting the gate, but each
time l have been there, many
cars were parked there. I
think this is unnecessary.
People are willing to slow
down and lake care of the
pedestrians.
A. The amount of pedestrian
traffic through the Corral Gate at
shift change still justifies stop-
ping vehicular traffic for short
periods of time. The San Jacinto
gate one block west is open for
auto traffic at this time of the
day.
Q. How come we can’t get
coveralls? We have been try-
ing for 2 or 3 months and
can’t. The company is sup-
posed to furnish them, but
we have to furnish our own
or do without.
A. Coveralls are available for
those whose work situation re-
quires coveralls. Please discuss
your situation with your partic-
ular supervisor.

Processing Department.
A native of Carbon, he joined
the company at McCamey in
1928, then transferred to Bay-
town in 1930. He began in the
maintenance group, and joined
the Riggers in 1931. After work-
ing as a fireman, first helper, and
operator, he transferred to the
Night Superintendents Office in
1952. In 1964, he became an op-
erating supervisor in Distillation
and Treating.
Knox is a member of St.
Mark’s Methodist Church, Ma-

Shrine.
Hat Saves Head
C. P. Alvey, chief operator of Pipe Still 3, pats M. L. Elder,
Distillation and Treating trainee, who was struck on the head
by a channel iron while walking through the unit. Apparently
the channel iron was left lying loose on the superstructure and
vibrated off. Elder holds his dented safety hat and the channel
iron. This near accident illustrates the safety rule that nothing
should be left lying loose on overhead structures. It also shows
that you never know when your safely hat might save your
noggin. “Now I know the value of safety hats,” Elder said.

Q. With reference to the
ten oldest men in length of
service at Baytown . . . how
about Mr. J. W. Durden in
Technical? I understand that
he has nearly 44 years of
service. Who is the youngest
employee with the most ser-
vice employed by Enjay and
Humble companies.
A. Our face gels redder by the
week. We did miss J. W. Durden
in our list of ten Refinery men
