THE ENGINEERING DIVISION f The Engineering Division is the largest division on the ship. While not the cleanest, it is certainly the happiest. K They win most of the prize money in the ship's hobby contests.l These lads' are the ones who, if humanly possible,,keep the screws a-turning. The E Division is composed of four gangs: main propulsion, electricians, damage control, and auxiliary. Each of these groups hasa definite job to perform and, with each man on the ball, a smoothly function- ing division is formed. . ' , - A , Main propulsion is perhaps the most vital of the gangs, and when listening to the throb of the main engines it is comforting to know thene is a good group of men down below o t h d h ' ' , ' n wa c an on t elr toes. We had fine luck with the mains until the start of the return trip, when trouble began to rear its ugly head in the form of cracked liners burned pis- tons, etc. Since then the engine room boys have been working night and day to get those engines back on the line. lThey succeeded, because they got us home ahead of our scheduled .time of arrival.l A .

They proceeded to care for them and make repairs with all the affection of a dotingimother. I ' . The DC gang 'fdamage controll is well schooled-in controlling the after-effects of a collision, flooding, or any other damage that might be sustained during operations. These boys had their shareiof work on the summer cruise, due to the fact that certain other ships discovered that the BURTON ISLAND made a very good ramming target. Other than repairing the damage, the DC boys also run the machine shop and perform other-jobssuch as welding and cutting, etc-, throughout the ship. - , I .
