winter yet! Don't let one warm
day fool you, Dutch. Whoa Mulel
There seems to be some dis
pute over Hot Rod McCIouds
title. Could it be Hayseed Nc
Cloud.
1t seems pity, those two
night time-keepers have to do
so much running around the
shop. But why should Carl (The
Ace) Weber give skate whe 4
he has his two one eyed Jacks
securely on days.
Of all nights Shorty 1.-TWO bv
four) Fellers picked to walk
home, it had to be Wed. Jan. 25,
after a short stop at his favorite
(The Garden) he was wet in
side as out.
The National Softball champs,
extend their thanks to Local IL
for the new jackets. Boy, they
sure are SnaZZy.
It's reported, Slicker Sullivan
didn't like to have his new car
to be called Ford, you know
that old saying, a rose would
smell just as sweet, by any
other name, pray tell!l What
makes an automobile any diff
ferent. 1t was you, Slicker who
put out those extra bucks for
a few extra gadgets and a fancy
name.
In the last issue we reported
about Al & Johnny's coon hunt:
in passing this story it was un-
derstood that Al had retrieved
the coon from the creek, which
isn't right. Aps mile chase was
fruitleSs and we can't under
stand just why that coon ever
floated when he was so loaded
with lead.
Another coon hunter had
promised fellow a coon, who
is now wondering if Floyd Nc
Vickers, Dept. 1913, meant this
year Orr. Oh well! it may
be better to get it when l am on
pension.
A few brain storms about the
parking problem. Herb Grounds
suggested the second trio 4
change their starting time from \
4 pm. to II pm. that is just
leave out the lunch period. Or
the Co. could buy a fleet of
Crosleys for those who have to
drive to work. Or let the men
go out and repark their cars,
or even if we could ride to work
in a taxi and hand the Co. the
bill. Then to, they could get ad-
ditional parking space without
crying their eyes out. Because
of the expense, you see they
spent about $4,000 for a park
ing space for about 20 cars.
Ed Merical (pusher in depart
ment 52) thought that he had
his parking problem solved by
parking inaProvo's parking lot.
Now Provo closes at pm. and
has no patrons to supply park
ing for. But you know Provo,S
with that Hitler attitude he
could park his big Buick on the
side walk and his trucks across
the side walk forcing the men
from the shop to walk in the
street" without being molested
by the Police Department but
not Eddie's, he ordered his car
toWed away, and it cost him
(Eddie) two bucks to retrieve il.
That reminds me, l must stop
in at Provo's and get some
scraps for my dog.
We wish to express our deep
est sympathy to one of our fell
ow workers and a swell guy,
Ken Tebary, who has recently
ost his wife.
| hear that Frank (The Chisel-
er) Jones has traded his new
Ford in on a new Buick already
Did he think that Ford would
lot fit his station in life?
Was present at the Credit
Union meeting last week and
lever have been TO a better
meeting and the food Z
md the refreshments were out
If this world, thanks to Dutch {
and a vote of thanks
o the magician who gave
grand performance, didn't he
Al Mckay? 4,
We heard some boys from
he shop had a good time at
he stag party last Friday mite,
my information on this Carl?
