By RALPH YOUNG, Secretary

three months, turned to me the
other day and said: who is that
guy they call Colonel Tarver?"
(Some day, soon, we will try
to give the writers, a descriptive
write-up. RHY).
Quoting Earl Wilson, who
said Wish I'd said that, When
you see man deep in train
of thought, you can bet there's
a women passenger Walter
Shirley. End quot. when it's
a woman running the train, you
can bet she has a handsome
male conductor. Colonel Tar
ver).
1t was suggested that we un-
roll the red carpet and dust it
off thoroughly as part of the
.preliminaries in giving typical,
cordial welcome to the newly
arrived operators in department
E. This group includes: Helen
Lahey, Margaret Ehlert, Felice
Domalski, Della Smale and Thel-
ma Rocker.
This is another one of those
"believe it or not" true stories.
This time it is about one of our
esteemed readers, Ralph Farrell
of Eng. Insp. He had no thought
that his words of appreciation
would be printed, therefore they
have genuine value. He said and
Il quote: "Our column in the
Union Journal in its present
form, shows literary craftsman
ship of high order, and it pro-
vides a wonderful medium
through which the Champion
family of workers can become
better acquainted and thus our
union becames a better union,
am all for it." (Thank your,
Mr.. Ralph Farrell.)
Dept. L 1st shift
Journeys End, Lake Wilson,
Hillsdale, Michigan was a noisy
Hahrly's summer resort at 8
place on June 18th. Department
L girls hurried up to Beryl
am. that day for an outing. Ka-
tie Miller won the prize for the
Old Fashioned Bathing Beauty
Contest; Irene Rudolph took the
1949 honors. Anne Haverman
and Isabel Essing won the Horse
Shoe Match. 10 Kucher and
Delma Walsh won the Boat
Race. Caryl Conliss won the
outdoor" prize set of spark
plugs donated by our company.
Everyone enjoyed the picnic
lunch and wonderful time was
had by all-including the young
thing who fell out of the ham
mock; the gal who got caught
on the barbed wire fence, plus
the three casualties on the
homeward-bound chartered bus.
Dept. III 1st shift
Some fellows just won't eat
candy regardless who buys it.
Just think of the vitamins in
one bar of good candy, Archie.
We hear that the candy has
led to a separation between two
very great pals. 1t is really re-
gretable to see friendship of
such a long standing break up
over little candy. Every col
umn has its sadness so let the
world know that Archie and
Johnny are no longer friends.
1t seems like a lot of angle
iron and channel iron is being
pile up outside the Welding
Room in the driveway. He must
be busy on other jobs SO as not
to use it. Maybe the Millwrights
need more help in that depart
ment.
Dept. AA 1st shift
I saw fellow walking up and
down the railroad tracks, the
other day, looking for some
thing, could it be watermelons?
Eh? Parker?
Dept. E
HOibert Jennings
/ feel sorry for the man who
has never gone without his din
ner to buy a book of poems, a
ticket to a concert, a little stat
uette, or even a pretty hat for
wife. (Ah, Romeo, there you
are!)
Union Office, 1st shift
! We felt deep regret when we
read of the death of Cliff and
Harry Patton's father last week.
We extend our heartfelt SYM
pathy to their family.
The mother of Clara Horvath,
Dept. E 1st shift, died last week
and the members wish to extend
to Clara and her family, their
sympathy.
REMEMBER JULY 7th is
THE REGULAR UNION MEET
ING. LET'S MAKE IT A BIG
MEETING.
Gene Kissel and Harry Berry
were fishing last weekend and
report the trip a huge success
for the fish. Harry's boat
thought it was a submarine and
proceeded to submerge. The oc-
