CLIcKER SULLIVAN Strikes
BY Deak & Dock

SLlChEh SOLGlN AN StrlKeS
~ Again. After a recent opera
ton George. Snyder returned to
work in Dept. A, and thought he
was doing OK. when the boss
came to him and said, Sullivan
gave orders that if you get too
tired to work, just check out and
go home any time you like even
if it's 7:10 AM" It's not just the
force of habit that keeps George
coming to work, it's that big bad
wolf that keeps knocking at his
door every week. OF course Slick
er wouldn't know anything about
that, because he's always brown
nosed his way into a better pay
ing job.
A set back for Pinkey Zim-
norman. After trying without
success to get his inspection job
eliminated so he could bump in
the tool joint to get that Satur-
day and Sunday work, Pinkey
decided to take matters in his
own hands and went to work or
a Warner Swasey. The men ir
that Dept. did the same thing
Pinkey went back to his inspec-
ton job not as fast as he left but
much wiser.
We regret the passing away
of Jimmy Walker, Sr. He was
a good union man and did his
share in the early days of the
union in our shop, when he was
an executive committeeman.
He came here from Chicago in
1929 with many others, some
of whom still work here. We
extend our deepest sympathy
to the Walker family.
Joe Biscay, Sr. inspec o r
needs something besides a new
bowling ball. How about a new
delivery, Joe?
Now that the baseball season
is over and Louie Batemar
Dept. 81, no longer needs Shorty
(ticket taker) Sager, he hai
taken a like position at the Ava
Ion Theatre.
Jim Gosling, Dept. 81, is al
ways Dragging about his gol
games, why doesn't he accept ;
challenge from some of the boys
Charley Jackson, Dept 81,
passed out cigars last week.
The event, Charley was mar
ried. Best wishes from all of
us to you and your bride.
Ray Carter didn't make tina
blue coat that he wished for, bu
managed to snag a Saturday an,
Sunday overtime. Any beefs
Ray?
Joe Geogduski, heat treat,
soon will receive his sixth dia-
mond. This means that he has
thirty years service at Nation
al Supply Co. Nice going, Joe.
The boys in Dept. 43, though
that two weeks vacation woul'
do Harold Jones some good: w,
now wonder if it's the vacation
or the job that makes Harold 81
tired.
Butch Bowers reports that h,
Just lets Homer Harris beat hin
so he won't pass out on the link
and have to he carried back t
the car.
Think you are having a
tough hOmelife. Lend an ear
and / will tell you about a
couple of brothers, Walter
Bahnfleth and Art Denman,
who for Is years not only
worked at the shop, but went
home and took care of their
invalid wives. We admire them
for the great spirit they have
taken In this endurement.
We have an inspector in Dept
A, nights, who is more interest
ed in the sweeper's job than hi
own. You would look good ol
the business end of a shovel
Friedrich.
If you don't think Tony Pa
licke is good at golf just ask him
In a very short time you'll thinl
you're talking to Ben Hogan.
Some of the boys in Dept. 50
since Bob the stock chaser ha
come there, are thinking of tax
ing up Grand Opera. Maybe he'l
find a Caruso among the bunch
How about it, Coleman?
We wish to thank the boy
who so kindly turned in tn
news. Keep it coming.
