Toots From The
Round House
By Charles Erickson

Howdy folksl Yes l came right
back to the Meteor City again, just
like ball with a rubber string
attached. Sunny California is sure
keen and l certainly enjoyed my
vacation with mother and friends,
but believe me old Winslow is O..
K, and I'm really glad to get back,
for several reasons (the main one
being financial resources).
Of course L took in many SPLEEN
did shows and revues and we'll say
that New Yerk's Zigfeld Follies
have nothing on. the young ladies
playing in the wonderful musical
comedy Lady Be Good" when it
comes to kickin' a high heel and
and-well-they aren't hard to look
at either. Some show.
In the course of my ramblings
in Los Angeles, met up with sew
eral former Winslow folks and
among theme were Mr.. and Mrs.
Eddie Suter, who send their best
regards to the Meteor City.
Well, now lets see what l know
in the way of news. Just being
fresh from visit to our company
hospital, a little conditional" dope
on the inmates there from WinsloW
may interest you. Of course our
general foreman Jim Kiely, as you
is back at work, very glad are we
to see him.
Stanard Nesting returned east
Saturday, after undergoing a salts
factory examination of his auto in
juries and will report back to work
within a few days.
A L. Hanson will likely be in the
hospital another month, but is up
and around feeling nicely, except
he's pretty weak.
Benito Aragon is also strolling
around with the aid of pair of
crutches, while S. (Shorty) Okla
boyoshi's broken arm is getting bet
ter day by day. Mrs. Phyllis Will
hite, our janitress, is improving too
and will be back soon.
l did not get to see Miss Cathe-
rine Bowman, but was assured that
she was getting along very good
and brake Gerald Lloyd was sitting
up when last saw him and ex-
poets to be back in time to take
part in the grape rush" The
trachoma eye disease cases are all
cleaned up now, for which every
one is thankful, so you see folks,
Winslow's representation in the Los
Angeles hospital is small but the
smaller the better
Oh dear! Where are those deer
Well anyhow unless they watch
their step there won't be any
''bucks" left for several crack
marksmen on the shop forces have
shouldered "old betsy" and are
combing the mountains. B. H.
Canady, accompanied by Dan
Hitchcock, and Roy Mullins, has
set his thoroughbred dogs on the
trail of not only deer, but the par
ty expects to bring back four or
five lion, bear and wildcats, more
or less, but Jim Kiely thinks Can
ady will have to go to Mexico to
find his hounds if they run onto
any big game.
Two groups of Indian hunters
got back Sunday evening, each
bringing home nice big buck. One
party was composed of Joe Kie,
Frank Scott, Earnest Yasteya, John
Chavez and Ben Annie, while Clyde
Trijillo, Frank Cheromiah, V. Ara
gon and Ben Smith made up the
second group. The Indians bagged
their 'venison feed" way over be-
ypnd the Soldier trail country.
Carl Sayer and H. H. Sterling
are among the hunters still ouy,
while w. G. Fertig and F. c. (Cap>
Blumlien have returned from the
Kiabab forest, but don't know
whether they got anything except
"back" or not
Ray Cheromiah, John Analla and
Henry Whitmore spent the latter
part of last week at their homes
in Laguna, New Mexico, but are
again hitting the clock" at the
roundhouse.
After finishing up his monthly
2031 report for September, Wallace
Merrick says we handled $40 en-
gines during the month and that
tiic is an increase of half a hun
G-ed as compared to September,
1J24 Alta ol way we like to do
it and lets hope California don't
run out of grapes too quickly or
that the fasteners don't lose their
appetite for wine-er-er excuse me,
/ mean grapejuice.
