your lunchpail,' he said.
"Teigert made the mistake of
trying to jerk free. Then Boleslau
looked toward the lunchpail and
saw the burning fuse. He picked
the guy up and slung him under
his arm, ran to the window sill
and grabbed the lunchbox. In case
you're interested to know what
might have happened. that guys
lunch contained a deadly bomb.
We'll. when another guard got
there, Boleslau had yanked the
fuse out of the bomb and had
everything under control"
Crosby sat down.
]. F. Hendricks. the big boss,
spoke up: There seems to be no
doubt that Boleslau is entitled to
the Heroic Service Medal and the
Bond. But for his presence OF
mind, a vital section of our plant
might have been destroyed -
hundreds of lives lost He did some
mighty quick thinking - yanking
that fuse out and holding the
saboteur, too. Smart boy. Wish we
had more like him"
Two days later, all the employ
ees of the four to midnight shift
were assembled in the center court
during lunch period. The area was
lighted with flood lamps, and Hen
bricks stood before a microphOne
on a small platform.
Crosby and l stood on either
side of Happy Boleslau, ready to
escort him forward for the great
honor.
AS Hendricks recounted the big
fellows heroic action, tears began
to trickle down Happy's cheeks.
As the President described how
the guards quick thinking saved
the plant and many lives, Bole-
slau began shaking his head. and
mumbling.

Hendricks gave us the signal to
bring him up on the platform. so
we led him forward. But before
Hendricks could say word.
Happy went right to the micro
phone and started to speak:
''Folks-I-I got to tell you"

lieving. do you mean you were

fuse was still burning"
"Yes, SIR" Happy said meekly.
THE only way l could think OF
to save the plant and the people
was to kill the force of the bomb;

A thousand horror-stIuck,

Without faltering for an instant.
Happy Boleslau had offered to
sacrifice his life to help defeat his
country's enemy, and now he was
denying his right to a hero's
glory!
The boss opened his lips, but he
couldn't make words come out.
Instead, he put his arm about the

an affectionate hug.
A moment later, a cheering bed
