FROM THE EDITOR
Champion Spark Plug Unit,
ITAUv CIO

JAW -ClO,
800 Upton Avenue.
Attn. Lloyd Spiedell, Chairman.
Will you please convey my
thanks and deepest appreciation to
the members Of the Champion Unit
for the splendid support they have
given, and are giving the TOLEDO
UNION JOURNAL.
While the pressure on labor in
creases on all sides, it is impera-
tive now, more than ever before,
that labor avail itself of every
means of presenting its case to the
public, combating the anti-labor
propaganda of the industrialists,
who are able, because of their po-
sition, to utilize both the daily
press and radio as their weapons
against the workers.
In giving the TOLEDO UNION
JOURNAL their support, your
people show enlightened interest in
their own welfare. which indicates
they realize the Importance of their
paper as an instrume ent in
promoting their welfare. Such will
ingness on the part of the workers
to support their press shows a spir-
it of progress which ! hope every
union will show as time goes on.
Again thanking your unit for its
support and with every good wish
for the continued progress of your
organization, | am,
Sincerely and fraternally yours,
OLIVER j. PECORD,
Managing Editor,
Toledo Union Journal.
Leo Carr, sometimes called the
Greyhound Kid" of Dept. J, is a
very happy boy when the Mud
Hens are at home. Somebody gave
Leo a season pass and now his wife
knows just where to look for him
when the lights come on over on
Monroe Street.
Ted Hill, that remarkable player
of Dept. X, not only excels on the
indoor field, but also in his duties
at the shop. We wonder if all Ted's
perspiration is from hard work,
drinking too much water or I?
Who is the Mr.. Five by Five that
Ethel Hahnlen is dreaming about?
We still have at least one fore
man who thinks the way to get
things done is to shout and pound
on his desk. Of course, he's new.
We are sure he will learn in time.
We like the way our transporta-
ton problem is being handled. 1t
is a tough, thankless job, but it is
being well done by Bruce Melvin
and DeWayne Wisebaker.
We still hear some complaints
about certain stewards, but never
at Unit meetings, which is the
place to beef. What's the matter,
afraid to come out in the open and
voice your objections publicly?
Grup and Speidell deserve
word of encouragement about now.
Their work becomes more burden
some month by month.
How about ventilator over your
annealing oven, Habicht? ? The odor
isn't very invigorating.
A sure sign that warm weather

BYLAWS CHAIRMAN RESIGNS
BY Winfield c. Vernier

Edward GolembleWSkl rendered
his resignation to the secretary of
the Bylaws Committee for the
following reason: He has been
elected scoutmaster of Boy Scout
troop and stated that any father
who has a boy II years or older
and interested in the boys future
could readily understand his action.
We understand, Ed, and the COM
mittee appreciates the valuable aid
you gave them while serving with
them and welcomes your service
again whenever it is possible for
you to serve.
UNIT MEETINGS ONCE A
MONTH-JUNE, JULY, AUGUST
Frank Rostetter reports that due
to motion passed at Unit meet
ing there will be only one meeting
each month, on the first Sunday,
for the aforementioned summer
months. P. S.: Of course, if spe-
cial Unit meeting is requested by
25 members as per Section Z Of
Article VIII of our present By
Laws, we would have more meet
ings. Or would we, Frank?
CHIEF STEWARD ON
THIRD TRICK ELECTED
Spike Ryan of Dept. 205 was
elected chief steward on the third
trick. He also acts as assistant to
Paul Nay.
June Dorr, who works for Bruce
Strain, speaking: Doctor John
(meaning John Dennis, steward in
the hospital on second trick, can
you fix my finger for me. It's cut
and bleeding?" John: Don't call
me DOCTOR" Maybe it's that medical
accent you have, Johnny, that fools
the girls!
Two Spicer Unit members who
deserve a lot of credit for going
out of their way to serve the Local
and our Unit are Ralph Mason,
manager of the Local II baseball
team, and Robbie Robbins, manag-
ing the Spicer softDall club. Let's
turn out and see our boys perform.

Elmer Gregory, scrappy former
chief steward on the third trick, is
convalescing from a recent appen-
dectomy. We hope you are well
soon, Elmer, and able to be with us
again.
Tom Adair (Odair to some) of

Three Bandits

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 20. tUP)-
Police today combed southern Cali
fornia for a bandit trio which VIC
Tins have twice identified as con-
victs who scaled San quentin walls
Christmas day.
The three bandits, identified from
police pictures as Ralph w. Ward,
%, Lawrence Matari, 81, and Roy
Drake, 10, last night held up a
drug store and robbed customer
after an earlier robbery of a
jewelry store
A fourth escapee was captured
Monday at Fort Bragg, Cal.
The holdup team used the same
technique in both robberies. One
man entered first and asked to
look at the jewelry in the first
store and for a drink of water at
the drug store. His two accom-
plices followed, one waving gun
and the other with hand in his
pocket.
Redford and Drake went to San
Quentin for the 100000 robbery
of the Beverly Hills hotel in Feb
ruary, and Ward began his robbery
term in April. Motari went to San
Quentin in July for burglary.
