that exist for young men and young
women who follow school curricula
comprising mathematics and science.
The school visits were concentrated
attempts to outline to students in
formative school years what is meant
by technical university studies, what
these studies demand and what oppor-
tunities are available to young men
and young women who successfully
complete these requirements. A year
ago Lago management met with Aru-
ba educators to discuss the problems
of cultivating and obtaining universi-
ty trained and qualified Netherlands
Antillians for professional assign-
ments It was felt then, and is still
the consensus, that students entering
the eighth grade are not completely
aware of what is involved in techni-
cal study at the university level. He
is not aware of the existence of
specific, not general, opportunities.
To undo some of the mysteries of
university education, and to replace
apprehension or trepidation in young-
sters' minds with practical and ex-
plicit information, were the tasks of
twenty-five-year old Hoo and twenty-
five-year old Britten. The two ap-
peared before seventh and eighth
grade students as graduates of Aruba
schools who had gone to the United
States and successfully completed
technical university education. They
appeared, also, as two Aruban young
men who are using their university
education at Lago on professional
assignments. They pointed out the
opportunities at Lago and Barcadera
and in Aruba for university trained


A. A. Hoo A. A. Britten
sized the discipline, determination and
initiative required.
The students were told that scho-
larchip aid is available for deserving
and qualified young men and women.
Not only is there the Lago Scholar-
ship Foundation, but the island and
federal governments also sponsor
scholarship programs. Assistance un-
der the Lago Scholarship Foundation
to worthy candidates has amounted
to complete payment of all school
fees incurred in the course of four
years attendance at United States
and Holland universities.
The four Lago representatives
worked in teams of two. Mr. Schin-
deler and Mr. Hoo visited Colegio
Arubano, Protestant Christian School,
John Wesley College, St. Augustinus
College and Avond Mulo. Mr. Couzy
and Mr. Britten visited Juliana
School, La Salle College, Commandeur
Abraham de Veer School, Comman-
deur Peter Boer School and St.
Antonius College.
Mr. Schindeler and Mr. Couzy in-


technical people. Two sentences trom produced their young associates as
Mr. Britten's remarks highlighted the examples of the university trained
opportunity phase of the discussion: technical men Lago seeks. It was
"The demand for university trained exnlnined that Lago wants Antillian


technical men is high and it is worth-
while for you to seriously consider
a career in the technical fields. For
example, it is estimated that Aruba
will need seventy new chemical en-
gineers in the next five years, and
last year only two were graduated."
Suggested for students' thought as
they approach the juncture in their
school system where they select the
avenue of study they wish to follow
was the curriculum which stresses
mathematics and sciences and pre-
pares the student for professional

Summer Training Program

Has Thirty-Six Students
Thirty-six young men and women
are currently enrolled in the ten-week
Summer Training Program for col-
lege students. They are assigned to
almost all departments, and repre-
sent a wide number of fields of study.
The summer program began in
1955, and is designed as a work-
experience program to help students
learn to work, gain experience for
future careers and to help students
orient themselves to the business
world. Students whose fields (f study
have practical application at Lago
have been assigned to departments
doing this type work.
Technical students have been as-
signed to the Technical Department
and include such majors as petroleum
engineering, electrical engineering,
chemical engineering and civil engi-
neering. Majors in medicine and bio-
logy drew Medical Department as-
signments. Sociology, history, psy-
chology and English majors were
assigned to the Industrial Relations
Department. Mathematics, accoun-
ting and business majors found as-
signments in the Accounting Depart-
ment
The program is open to students
enrolled in a college or university
who have successfully completed their
first year. They need not be the sons
or daughters of a Lago employee to
enroll.

De Robles Lo-Fo-Sang

Named Outstanding CYI

Suggesters-of-the Month
H. de Robles and Ferdinand R.
Lo-Fo-Sang were named the out-
standing suggesters of the month
Mr. De Robles earned the accolade
for the outstanding idea of June,
while Mr. Lo-Fo-Sang was credited
with the outstanding safety sugges-
tion.
Fourteen suggestions were accep-
ted in June. The highest awaid of
the Fls. 535 total was Fls. 100 to Mr.
De Robles. J. E. Thode of the Me-
chanical Department was next with
a Fls. 75 award.
Mr. De Robles suggested that an
inert gas line be installed through
the central pipe alley in the Crack-
ing Plant with take-off lines to each
unit. These inert gas lines will pro-
vide a more reliable and accurate
method of purging air from a
system.
Mr. Lo-Fo-Sang's safety sugges-
tion was to enclose a starter switch.
At a location in No 2 Powerhouse,
a starter switch was installed in a
cabinet, but the switch itself was
not enclosed. While the cabinet was
closed, the switch was not exposed,
but when opened it was.
The suggestion won Fls. 35.

THE NORTH side of No. 1 Finger Pier underwent a major


renovation recently. Timbers along


the length of the pier were replaced and where mooring dolphins were located, new sleeves for
securing bolts were installed and concrete was poured over a net work of reinforcing rods.

ide To Start July 22
The north side of No. 1 Finger Pier and large areas
of the pier's main deck were completely renovated
recently. All that remains in major harbor pier re-
pairs is the south side of No. 1 Finger Pier. This will
begin July 22. The pier was first taken out of service
June 6. Both sides were closed initially while hot work
assignments were completed. The south side was ope-
ned while the complete length of the north side was
descended upon by scores of men and crafts.
Over 2600 feet of twelve-by-twelve greenhart tim-
bers were used in renovating the 630-foot north side
of the pier. Each timber was placed in position by
crane and then fixed to the pier structure by nine-
inch bolts. The bolts were sunk approximately four
inches below the surface of the timber. Into the hole
between the head of the bolt and the timber surface
was driven a dowel coated with glue. The dowel was
sawed flush leaving a clean, smooth surface.
Running almost the entire length of the pier's deck
were railroad tracks, sunken vestiges of the narrow-
gauge train system that once was Lago's. These were
ripped up and the depressions left were filled with
concrete.


WHEN NO. 1 Finger Pier was put into service in 1949 its deck was
lined with railroad tracks to accommodate the narrow-gauge train that
at one time operated over a route that covered a major portion of the
refinery. The train hauled supplies and equipment.
TEMPO CU Finger Pier No. 1 a worde poni na servicio na anja 1949, su
vloer tabata cubri cu linja di rail pa e locomotief small cu un tempo taba-

Eternal Curiosity Portrayed

In Petroleum Research Film
The role of petroleum research and science in
helping man to adapt to his environment is portrayed
in a new motion picture which has recently been added
to Lago's film library. The thirty-minute film entitled
"The Human Element," was produced especially for
Standard Oil Company (New Jersey) and its affili-
ates. The film, which is world-wide in scope and con-
cept, has already been seen by many Lago employees
and by members of some social organizations. It will
be among the films Lago regularly shows to lequest-
ing organizations of Aruba as part of the film pro-
gram conducted by the Public Relations Department.
To picture man's age-old struggle to escape the
enslavement of manual toil and to achieve a richer
life, two Jersey photographers traveled over 38,000
miles through England, Holland, France, Italy, Ni-
geria, Saudi Arabia, Thailand, Japan, Peru, United
States, Colombia and Brazil. They exposed 64,800
feet of 16mm color film. The total footage ran more
than thirty hours before being edited to the half-
hour running time of "The Human Element."
Some of the photographers' modes of travel were
unusual even in film production. They rode camels
in the Middle East and elephants in Thailand.
The Jersey photographers worked 14,000 feet
above sea level in the Peruvian Andes and below it
in the desert of Saudi Arabia. While in Thailand,
they were beset with floods of disaster proportions.
There were avalanches in the Italian Alps, and a
sand storm held up shooting for two days.
"The Human Element" shows men harvesting gra-
pes in Burgundy as they have for generations, child-
ren piping the timeless tunes of Peru, Nigerians
beating talking drums in the jungles, temple dancers
in Thailand, a 600-year-old windmill in Holland and
a hand plow almost as primitive as the Stone Age.
Accompanying the vivid color of life in distant
lands are the sounds of the scenes as recorded on
location. The Jersey photographers used thousands
of feet of tape recordings to give faithful represen-
tations to the excitement of sound with the action
on film.
The primitive and the modern are dramatically
contrasted throughout the film. In forests of the Far
East, elephants wrestle giant teakwood logs in track-
less woodlands, as modern trucks bear the same tim-
ber to sawmills over logging roads.
Industrial research, as illustrative of man's curi-
osity and reasoning power, is a re-echoing theme of
the film. An Indian chemist, working in an Esso
laboratory in England, obviously has much in com-
mon with two American physicists arguing appli-
cations of the laws of physics at Esso Research and
Engineering Company. Half a world away from them
a laborer, farmer or engineer use the ultimate pro-
ducts of their skills.
Although oil's achievements in scientific research
form a central focus for "The Human Element,"
this is not primarily a film about scientists and labo-
ratories. Research is portrayed as a tool enabling
man to satisfy his unique demands. Fuels and lubri-
cants become part of man's freedom to move, to
enjoy life, to sustain himself, and to think.
Several of the commonplace products of oil take
on a special interest in the film. Paraffin, for exam-
ple, is shown serving the world in many ways as
a protective coating for Dutch cheeses, as a polish
for shoes, as a preservative for art treasures, as a
waterproofing for the papar parasols of Japan. Grea-
ses lubricate the most primitive of wheels, but in
England serve equally well the delicate machinery
which makes outer space probes possible. A 12,000-
ton Japanese ship is graphically pictured sliding to
sea on ways coated with a half-inch of grease.


IN THE teak forests of northern Thailand, an ancient source of po-
wer and transportation is used to gather timber. "The Human Ele-
ment" deals with man's ingenuity in developing raw materials and
shaping his environment throughout the world.
DEN SELVANAN di teak den norte di Thailand, un metodo aiutiguo
di energia y transportation ta worde usa pa haya madera. E pelicula
"The Human Element" ta trata di e capacidad inventive di hende
den desarollo di material crudo y formamento di su ambiente.


AT THE Spanish Steps in Rome, the cameraman makes a scene for
a sequence on motor scooters in the new half-hour motion picture
produced in color for Standard Oil Company (New Jersey). The
film has been included in Lago's film library.
NA TRAPINAN Spanjo na Roma, e sacador di e film ta tuma un
