Starts Feb. 9th

The Summer Camp Women's
Guild got off to a flying start
January IL with a reactivation
meeting held at Local II head
quarters.
The Women's Guild became
inactive about two years ago.
and when the union was under
steady pressure by management
and the Toledo Blade Last year,
requiring the focusing of the un-
ions attention on the beating off
of the attack, requests to revive
it were not possible.
The work of the Guild had
been SO important (and the
meetings so much fun) that re-
quests to reestablish it and put
it on a more permanent basis
have finally got under way.
The next meeting, February 8
will start off at 8 pm, with cof-
fee and cake afterward, (the
cakes to be made by Lucille
Shaffer and Flora Meyers).
There will be movies and other
entertainment.
Jean KreuZ was elected re-
cording secretary, and Lucille
Shaffer financial secretary.
A door prize will be given at
the February 8 meeting, with
