10000 TechnoIogists
Needed in America

in medicine and surgery, Miss
Murphy explained. The medical
technologists perform laboratory
tests which are helpful in estab-
fishing the presence, or lack Of,
most diseases of major import
ance, including cancer, tuber-
1culosis. diabetes. polio and others
through the study of such things
as blood and tissues, by labora-
tory methods. The pathologist
acts as a consultant to the at
tending physician, interpreting
the results Of these tests. t
Work Vories N
Some young people. especially
women, don't realize that medi-
cal technology is a field where
they can satisfy their interest in
science, although they do not
want to become doctors or full
f1edged chemists" Miss Murphy
pointed out.
Here is a field where they can
work exclusively in chemistry,
for example. Or they can work
in a smaller lab. where it is pos
sible to shift from one depart
ment to another, such as bacte-
riology, chemistry and hemotol-
ogy work with blood)," she ex-
planned. -
Miss Murphy herself is en-
ployed by three pathologists in q
clinic IN st. Louis, Mo. d..
Some have constant contact
with patients through such acti-
vities as taking blood, or giving
basal metabolism tests. Others
prefer to sit back in the lab and
work all by themselves"
Medical technologists must
complete two years of college,
she explained, and one years
training in a school approved by
the Council on Education and
Hospitals of the American Med
ical Association. Then they must
pass the examination given by
the registry of medical technol-
ogists of the American Society Of
Clinical Pathologists.

1--WE found that a fox likes
to curl up and snooze on a
mound of dirt" he says. He
digs his bait hole in a mound
at such an angle that a fox
can't crawl up the back and
see in. Dirt is sifted over the
trap, which is at the bottom
Of the mound, and pebbles are
placed on either side. "This is
done to encourage a fox to

Red and gray foxes have
increased because no one
traps them anymore" MIR.
Harrison says. "Ten years
ago, their pelts ran as high
as S. apiece, but they're
hardly worth a cent now"
His AZ traps are spread over
Il square miles In the Vienna
Herndon area, most of them
being arranged in two Smile
square circles. Connecting the
circles are strings of single
traps, each about A-mile into
woods, of back dirt roads.
The jaws of the 1-pound
spring trap open up like a
clam shell. In the middle is
a pedal like device, attached
to a trigger. When a fox
steps ON the pedal, the trigger
is released and the jaws snap
shut. The trap is placed to
catch a foot about the time a
fox's nose is over the baithole.
1T is humane" MIR. Har-
rison explains, because the
trap holds firmly but doesn't
break the leg. To prove this,
a trapped squirrel quickly
ran up a tree on release.
Foxes usually romp and
hunt at night, preferring
wooded spots near open fields
which yield mice, the trapper
explains. He has a few traps
along wooded rims Of pas
lures. Some are set along
woodland trails - natural
highways for the ever-roam-
ing fox-or near a broken
fence. Other traps are buried
on dusty cattle paths where
a. fox may take dirt baths,
or near a stump in a field On
which he may scan for prey
or foe, or at the end of a
fallen log, bridging a stream.
