"B" SHIFT SLITTING
By Ernest G. Gilstrap
News this month is at a standstill, but vacations
keep rolling along. Craig Snipes, Dan Taylor and
Dallas Ball said they caught up with some much
needed rest on their vacations. "3-D” McGee was
more adventurous. He toured Georgia, Alabama
and Florida last week. He got a nice sun tan, too
—on his left forearm. Grady ("I The Jury”)
Jackson is sitting in judgment at the Henderson
County Court House this week and Merritt is
probably using his two weeks to polish his Hud
son.
Tom Ellis said that he couldn’t stand to lie un
der a shade tree and watch his wife hoe the gar
den. He said he just had to turn his head.
If any of you fellows are seeking any informa
tion on the new motor cure deal, get in touch
with Jarrett Smith. What do you say, Watson?

Wondering what happened to our news last
month? We were in the process of changing "re
porters” and saving news items, so it looks as if
we will have oodles of news this month.
"Spring has sprung” and we find Sam back in
Clinton, Iowa, for a week trying desperately to re
new his Yankee brogue. He was so afraid he was
turning "Rebel”.
Poor Tom hardly knows spring is here. All he
can think of is having to r-snew his Air Force
"career”. (For fifteen days.)
Jency and Dorris are really making a great head
way at getting their household supplies. They
took a trip to Kannapolis via rail with the inten
tions of buying out Cannon Mills. Know what
they came back with—two towels and three dish
cloths. Keep up the good work, girls. You’ll soon
have enough to start housekeeping.
"Professor” Whitaker is instructing "special stu
dent” Dickson in figures (numerical, that is).
Boys, who’s teaching who what?
The patrolmen are really keeping a close watch
on the highways nowadays. The reason—Bobbie
and Dottie have recently acquired their drivers’
license. If you see something creeping up behind
you, it will either be a ’54 sports model Studebaker
or a sleek black "Chewy”. They don’t have enough
nerve to pass yet.
Wonder why Bettye has been riding around on
clouds? She is the proud owner of a beautiful
new Pontiac. (Anyway she says she has a small
claim.) Smooth riding to you, Bettye.
If any information is needed concerning the
"hurry-back” shift, which, of course, evenings one
night and days immediately following, ask Mada-
line. She knows how the over-sleeping part is
done.
If you have noticed anything unusual about
Judy and Lu lately it is because they have gone
"export crazy”. Judy has been training Lu for her
job. There’s a way out of it all, girls. Ever thought
of exporting yourselves?
Surprise!! Bill Stroup has a new addition to his
family—"Chigger”, a Mexican Chihuahua.
Johnny just had to get away from it all, so he
took a trip to the eastern part of the state.
We all welcome Luther Norton to our force,
for the time being, and we prolong our welcome
to Ruby who is almost a permanent fixture by
now.
That’s all for this month, but don’t miss us next
month for, by then, we will be hearing wedding
bells.
