Raw Seafood Is Harmful
To Some People
The Texas Department of
Health has warned that it can
be dangerous for some people
to eat raw seafoods, or even to
expose injuries to the salt
water of the Gulf of Mexico,
because of the possibility of
serious infection and illness.
Richard Thompson, director
of the TDH Division of Shellfish
Sanitation Control, said that
the source of danger to some
people is a common micro-
organism found in Gulf waters,
especially in the warmer mon-
ths from April to October. The
name of the culprit, if Vibrio,
especially a subgroup of the
bacteria, Vibrio volnificus.
When consumed uncooked,
usually in shellfish such as
oysters, mussels, and clams,
Vibrio can cause serious illness,
even death.

RA Holdaway Named
Division Manager
Of Santa Fe
R.A. (Dick) Holdaway has
been named division manager
of Santa Fe Railway’s Texas
Division headquartered at Fort
Worth. The appointment was
effective April 1. He was form-
erly superintendent at Temple.
In his new position, Hold-
away will have responsibility
for facilities and operations in
Texas and Louisiana. The Tex-
as Division includes trackage
from the Sweetwater area to
ghe Galveston-Houston area,
from Temple north to Fort
Worth and Gainesville, and
from Coleman to Presidio.
The Texas Division is one of
six new operating divisions
created as a part of a system-
wide restructuring that be-
comes effective May IS. The
other divisions include Kansas,
headquartered at Newton; Illi-
nois, headquartered at Kansas
City, Kansas; New Mexico,
headquartered at Albuquer-
que; Arizona, headquartered at
Winslow, and California, head-
quartered at San Bernardino.
Holdaway will have super-
intendents reporting to him
from Temple, Houston, and
Fort Worth.
A native of Wellington, Kan-
sas, Holdaway earned his bach-
elor of science in electrical
engineering from the Univer-
sity of Wichita in 1964. He is a
1980 graduate of the Santa
Fe-sponsored Institute of Busi-
ness and Economics held an-
nually at the University of
Southern California in Los An-
geles.
He worked summers for
Santa Fe as a road fireman
while attending college. He
joined Santa Fe as an assistant
industrial engineer at Argen-
tine, Kansas in 1970 and held
various operating positions at
Chicago, Temple and Long-
view, Texas before his pro-
motion to trainmaster at Fort
Madison, Iowa in 1978. He
moved to Temple in 1986 as
superintendent, the position he
held at the time of his appoint-
ment.
Holdaway and his wife Liz
have two daughters, Lisa who
lives in Chicago and Lori who
resides in Dallas.
such illness are those with
existing health problems, such
as liver disease and weakened
immune systems, especially
those recovering from stomach
or intestinal surgery.
Since Vibrio vulnificus and
some of the other Vibrio bac-
teria can also cause wound
infections, people with open
wounds or sores are warned
against exposing them to sea-
water, and anyone who is cut or
otherwise injured at the sea-
shore is warned to wash
wounds immediately, liberally
apply an antiseptic, and call a
physician if irritation or other
signs of infection appear.
Thompson said, “Wound in-
fections, while they can be very
serious, are more obvious to
the victim from the outset than
are food-borne illnesses. A
person who has a cut or
puncture stays aware of the
injury, while a person pre-
occupied with dining may be
taken by surprise, possibly
after ingesting dangerous
amounts of Vibrio-contaminat-
ed seafood. Therefore, most of
our warning is aimed at the
unsuspecting person who might
be tempted to try raw sea-
foods."
Thompson explained that Vi-
brio bacteria occur naturally
and increase their concentra-
tions in warm water. Even
healthy, fresh seafood may
contain the organisms, just as
other meats or poultry contain
other harmful bacteria if served
raw, improperly cooked, or
mishandled.
Normal cooking procedures
easily kill Vibrio, and re-
contamination of the seafood
after cooking can be prevented
with the same cleanliness pre-
cautions (hand and utensil
washing) necessary to avoid
other food-borne contaminants.
Thompson said that seafood
species other than oysters,
clams, and mussels are not yet
popular unless traditionally
cooked. “But an increase in
ethnic populations who prefer
raw or lightly cooked seafood
has increased our concern
about possible illness out-
breaks," he said.
