Clancy Davidson, foundry worker Clancy Davidson, an environmental life science major from Pittsburg, works the 3:30 p.m. to 12:00 a.rn. shift at the McNally Pittsburg Man- ufacturing Corporation. Davidson, a junior, carries a 10 hour class load. He began college in San Angelo, Texas but dropped out after a couple of semesters to work for the railroad. I transfered to Girard as a signal maintainer in 1971. I worked for them 5 years. Davidson began working at McNally's in Sep- tember, 1976. Pm working there so I can eatg it doesn't have anything to do with my major. We design and build equipment for major in- dustry - that's what our letterhead says. I do heavy molding frnake castingsl. We've got a quota for a number of molds to turn out every night. My shift is also responsible for cleanup. That means we never get out of there before 12:30. Davidson says his job can be pretty dangerous since he works around heavy machinery and molten metals. But nothing has happened to me yet. It's not luck either. I'd like to think it's because I watch what I do. Working at McNa1ly's is definitely just a stop- ping off place for Davidson. 'Tm a white water canoeist. The reason I got interested in environ- mental life science is because of all the muck and crap in some of the creeks I've been down. Something really needs to be done about the environment everywhere -- not just in Kan- sas. And Davidson's dream: To be able to play in my canoe in the Snake River -- and maybe even make National Geographic Magazine.

Linda Paulie, scuba diver f'1., . 1-4 Q Linda Paulie, who is working on her master's degree in accounting, spends a lot of time under water. Paulie helps in police investigations of drownings. She dives for the bodies. The first time Paulie ever got her feet wet with this type of work was in Florida when she dove with some friends in a Navy rescue squad. The first time I actually went down and saw a body, it was really gory. It takes a while to get used to it . Paulie estimates that she spends a total of 80- 100 hours in under water rescue work a year. Paulie also works 40 hours a week as finance director for the city of Fort Scott. Sometimes she finds it hard to work the two jobs together. In the past, my boss has been pretty good at letting me off when I was needed to dive, espe- cially when we need to get it done during day- light. Most of her work with the police departments of Pittsburg and Fort Scott is done on a volun- tary basis. Sometimes, however, she helps out with private investigations. Her salary then de- pends on whatever that party is willing to pay. ei- like '-. -- ?'0hl'5 I.z ..:'f- Due to boating and swimming Paulie does most of her diving in the summer. However she also works in the winter investigating skating acci- dents. Few of the cases she investigates are acci- dentsg many include some type of foul play. Paulie said winter diving is almost as much fun as warm weather diving. We've almost made a ritual of going down on New Year's Day. We make it a practice to dive in the winter - just to keep from getting rusty. She indicated that there is very little visibility in inland lakes and ponds. It's pretty bad in the pits. We use a lot of underwater lights. And we do a lot of nighttime diving with lights, too. Doing rescue work like this makes you want to learn more about people. I kind of wish Pd gone into law and justice now. I think it's more inter- estingf' I get a lot of satisfaction out of helping people out, and it's good practice for a diving career. Someday I'd like to get into a diving career, and finally get paid for it.
