Gamboa brothers way down in
McAllen, Texas they were in line

Talking to Jose and Geronimo
Ganlboa we find they certainly are
glad to return to their jobs here
and they have several good reasons
Why. These brothers were working

Doc an hour.
So, we most heartily agree with

WONDERFUL place to work, since
we have a WONDERFUL union.
