DEPARTMENTAL NEWS CELLOPHANE DIVISION ^ . .^fi MAINTENANCE By George Ryder By Kay Keenan Budgie Frazer and Leonard McCall are both on leave of absence this month. They each had an operation in the Transylvania Hospital and both are recovering rapidly. We hope they will be back at work by the end of No vember. I’ll bet Budgie kept the hospital in stitches. R. V. Pierce, Bob Korstain, John Sowell, Hank Bailey, Leonard Cousins, Nat Townsend, Hoyt Carr and George Ryder attended the Greenville Textile Exposition the second week of October. Everyone enjoyed the exposition and learned a lot. J. C. "Cass” Cassell, Earl Powell and Bill Nich olson were on vacation. Bill stayed at home, "Cass” fished a little at Charleston, and Earl caught up on his post card writing in Florida. All came back refreshed and ready for another year. The season for short days and long underwear is here again. Let’s all pull up our collars and wait for Spring. Notwithstanding the life of a dollar bill is only seven or eight months, we have never had one die on our hands. HINTS FOR GOOD BULB GARDENING: First, always buy all your bulbs from a reliable dealer, selecting large, sleek, firm ones. Order early to be assured of the best selection and keep them in a cool, dry place until ready for planting. Second, plant them in well-drained soil before frost hardens the ground, placing them at the cor rect depths. Your dealer will supply you with charts showing correct planting methods.^ Third, plant your bulbs in any part of your garden. There’s a place for them almost every where, whether used for mass plantings, groups or borders. Fourth, if you’re really ambitious you can cover the soil with a layer of mulch or leaves or straw just after the surface of the soil is frozen, remov ing this in the early Spring. This step is not ab solutely necessary. Fifth, sit back, relax, and wait for Spring to arrive, with the gratifying pleasure of seeing your handiwork blooming before your eyes—your own private flower show! Conversation going at a brisk pace here in the New York office the early part of the month. What with the Dodgers and Yankees battling it out in the Series, there was a regular 38th parallel right down the middle of the 7th Floor at 655. The balance of power swaying back and forth for so long stirred up considerable dis cussion on Black’s pitching prowess and Mize’s hitting technique. Final day told the story, though. Grace Tier nan is almost broken hearted about the fate of the poor Bums. The Eleanors—Moss, Coughlin and Borchard—sympathizing with her. New Staff Assistant for Polyethylene named. John Ciarrocca appointed to take over the task now that we’ve taken over the sale of poly from Harwid. Mary Kepting taking a speech course at the Y. We’re going through the "how now brown cow” routine. "Hello” to Joe Browne, new in the Customer Service Department replacing Harry Pollay. Harry has been transferred to Ben Heim’s territory as a salesman covering the Philadelphia area. Good luck to both. Marge Alberti "shuffling off to Buffalo” for a week to visit her piano-playing son. Bob is on tour with Charlie Spivac’s orchestra. Violett Cunniff is Tom Spear’s new "Girl Fri day” replacing Mary Dalton. Mary, by the way, is scheduled to hear those wedding bells on Satur day October 11. Good to have Ann Rubeo back in the office after a session in the hospital. Two new mail-messenger boys to help Eric. Charlie Wunderlich and Tony Civile will contend with the ozalid machine, mail, etc., in the future. Foreign visitors here in New York. Mr. Xavier Olin of Brussels spending a little time with us. Soon will be "trick or treat” time. Have a ghostly Halloween! Shower Cabinet—A new concept in bath en closures, composed of 2 rigid transparent plexi glass panels that slide with finger tip ease in a track cemented to the tub rim, has just been an nounced. 18
