Hood 70 LOGGING TODAY IS DIFFERENT Perhaps the best-recognized symbol of modern logging techniques is the power chain saw. Yet, it is only one of many significant changes which have characterized the progress of the logging industry during the past decade. In pulpwood production, for example, the advent of tree-length skidding, skidding arches, small crawler tractors, hydraulic skid-loaders, truck-mounted hoists, and pulpwood cranes have virtu ally revolutionized the industry. One factor in this development has been the sterling efforts of indi vidual working loggers to improve their own methods and machines. Another has been the increasing prominence of technically trained logging engineers. These men have been effective individually, and also through well-coordinated mechanization programs of forest in dustry associations. A third factor has been the willingness of equip ment manufacturers to invest in purely experimental machinery. The progress of the logging industry is reflected not only in more efficient production methods and machines but in higher earnings and better working conditions for woods workers. Skilled men with fami lies, living in forest communities, are replacing the legendary lumber jacks in the large camps of bygone days. Logging today is different, and with the continuing efforts of the logger, logging engineer, equipment manufacturer, and the forest products industry, even greater advancements can be expected in the future.

Friendly ad vice and hard workers are always appreciated on a project such as this. Don Duncan, our faculty adviser, was always ready with a willing hand and did an excellent job on the 50th Anniversary. Dr. Kaufert and R. M. Brown contributed articles that will certainly interest every one. Secretaries Lois Wieseke and Alice Becker came through to help in much of the typing and usually had the answers to many perplexing problems. A special thanks should be extended to Kenny Winsness who so ably handled the Alumni News Section and as would be expected did a very fine job. Al Lundgren also contributed favorably in his synopsis of the Graduate Student News. The cooperation of these people, the alumni, and advertisers have helped tremendously in making this Peavey what it is. May we thank them all again. 86
