well as an electrician, telephone man
ager and street fair booster. Some of
his friends knew this, and some knew
that the Portland Cement company
needed just such man. The tele-
phone was used, and before Phil knew
what was doing, he had situation
staring him in the face as construct
ing engineer for the cement company.
1t was "a bigger job, bigger money,
and allowed him to stay among his
friends. He was simply headed off,
SO Phil has resigned his connection
with the Telephone company to take
effect August /, and on that date he
becomes part of the Portland push.
And Phil's friends are glad.
