Shcp Shift. The gr `d shifting of machinery "f: in the shop is for t e purpose of making room for a new drill press and three lathes. The drill press, a Swedish-made Solberga, is al- ready installed and working, and it has been placed in such a way as to cut out much of the lifting previously required in completing our explosion-proof boxes. A 15 inch lathe and two 13 inch lathes manufactured by Regal Le Blonde are scheduled for delivery late in April. This new equipment will make it pos- sible to eliminate the night shift as there will be enough machines for all of the men to work days.

Personality Sketch. John Chin came to work for the company in January of 1954 as a ma- chinist, but after three months he left to work as a draftsman for the Radiation Lab- oratory. Then, in November of 1955 we lured him back with his present job of engineering design draftsman, which was more to his lik- ing as he had attended Cogswell College in San Francisco and received his Associate of Engineering degree in preparation for this type of work. His unfailing even temper, meticulous work and engineering competence have gained for him the respect and confi- dence of everyone in the company. M. L. Bramson's design and drafting work on our medical instruments is assigned exclusively to him along with all other jobs that need especially expert draftsmanship and attention to details. As Norm Waner's assistant, John takes care of the details of assigning jobs and expediting the work-flow through the engineering department. He and his wife spend their spare time growing cactus, flow- ers, vegetables and fruit in the yard of their home in Richmond. They have a son 2% and a baby daughter three months old. Secretary to the Chief Engineer. Sun Yung her natural aversion to ammonia fumes, has partially solved the problem that has baffled all of the high powered brains in the engineering department for several years by simply installing a bit of naphtha- lene in the vent of the Ozalid machine.

She attended Chosun Christian University where she received her bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering before coming to the U.S. for two years of graduate work at the U. of Texas. When she came to Berky eley in 1960 she married Yongyop Kim who is a student at Cal, and they are now living in Berkeley . Their baby daughter, Alison, is just three months old.
