~ from your ola news Houiiu VI
the Air Way Airings. 1t is that
time of the week to read the gos-
sip collected from around the
shop.
Well it seems that Big Al and
Dutch of the machine shop are
back in the headlines with their
usual spats. This time it was
overheard they were we're dis
cussing politics. AS usual, the
Dutch man losing his shirt in the
hot arguments but, it was also
noticed that Big Al had a few
holes in his pants. Why don't you
boys choose your weapons and
end it all. You know you can
never win, Dutch.
We have heard of lot OF
titles in the US. Government but
Big Al tops them all this time.
His new title now is Big AL D.
p. c. P. What itsall means is a
mystery to us. Maybe if you ask
him he can put some light on
the subject.
How one person from the
machine shop can afford two
cars with the work he does is
loo great for the ordinary per-
son to figure out. We are refer
ring to Joe Syacurse for 1t
seems he drives the old one to
work and keeps the new one at
home Just to look at. How about
it, Joe?
Water is a great thing, runs
: power houses to generate elc-
tricity, affords great sports and
numerous other events, but to
Pete BrOnkie it only means to
save him from falling off the
bench at noon. What four
!, drops can do to person can
, only be told by Pete. Don't
sleep SO sound the next time.
, 1t seems that the month of
July plus June are the big.
gest months of the year for
weddings and what have you.
; To Big Steve and Paul Cupp,
both from Dept. 10 are the
! proud fathers of babies, thanks
for the cigars, fellows.
We, at least, have two loyal
members in the shop or shall
we say on leave. These two
people come from Dept. IA and
they were the only ones who
came out to vote in our re-
cent shop election which, by
the way, was won in our ia
vor.. The score is 1853 for and
az against. 1t is great to see
that so many of you saw the
light and followed it.
Spills, thrills and : Excitement
were in store for two people of
the shop last week. Virg Robie,
of Dept. IL, and Estel, of Dept.
IA, had the misfortune of being
in a wreck. However, it turned
out to the best for both, neither
one sustained such injuries as to
, keep them from work.
We have heard of people
counting sheep, but now they
! are counting their calories to
) keep that slim trim around the
waist line. How about it you
girls on the mixer line? Any
saving in the food bill? Some of
you have started too late in the
game to get the advantage of 1t.
The most common saying now
adays is Il am from Missouri and
you have got to show me-. That
is the way we will ever believe
you, Esther, by bringing us proof
that you caught all the fish on a
recent fishing trip. 1t may be the
truth but with all the fish stories
going around it makes people
wonder, Hope you can take a
; joke.
The song ooh Johnny, Oh
Johnny, how you can love,
should be changed to Poor
Johnny, Poor Johnny, how you
forgot to duck. Of course we
mean John Konwinski, of Dept.
IL. If you saw his jaw last week
: you would know. Of course he
tells us it was a sore tooth but
we have our own opinion,
], Why was Laura K. of the
Paper bag not at work last mon
day. Could it be that you forgot
to set the alarm, or was it you
Just wanted to stay home because
Johnny stayed. That is a hard
question to answer isn't it
Laura?
Maybe the night superinten.
dent would like to run the
machines plus all departments.
We think it wise if you would
leave the supervisors take care
of their own department and you
act just as an overseer, other
wise you might have one of
those awful heart attacks that
seem to be taking all the fore
men by surprise. Think it over.
A lot of people around the
shop think their names appear
on all property that belongs to
the company. The articles that
are used for the production of
