”k" SHIFT WHITE DEPARTMENT
By Gertrude Summey
We’re happy to welcome Betty Powell and Jack
Zachary to our shift. Both come to us from Grey
Department.
Charles Ayers was on the vacation list this
month and enjoyed a quiet, restful week at home.
Autumn seems to be about the best season of
the year to climb into your car and "just drive”,
or visit those special friends and relatives. The
following enjoyed week-end trips during the month
of October.
J. B. went to Gatlinburg, Tennessee by the way
of the Smokies. Betty P. visited friends in S. C
Sydney C. and friends went to Grandfather Mt.
"Aunt Janes” and family visited relatives in Shal-
otte. Ocean Isles and Myrtle Beach, S. C.
Sharon and Jimmy W. spent the week-end in
Knoxville, Tennessee, while there they attended
the University of Tennessee-U. N. C. football
game.
Our shift really believes in supporting the local
football team. Several of us including Waynes-
ville’s own Ruth M. went over to cheer for the
"Blue Devils” when they played the "Moun
taineers”. Honestly, Ruth, we’ll never tell them
what you did!
Lillie G. says after moving furniture from room
to room for a week, she is now enjoying her new
ly sanded floors.
Sid and Ruth have become excellent (soup)
cooks, since they moved to their home on Hayes
Street.
L. C. Wilson is in the market for an alarm clock
—one with a very loud bell. He hopes to find one
by the next time he has to work graveyard.
We sure had a sharp looking bunch of fellows
on this shift last week. They all wore their shirt
collars buttoned, and Jack Z. was even seen wear
ing a "White” bowtie. Wonder if the season’s first
icicles had anything to do with all this.
Well, seems as though the squirrel hunting has
faded out on our shift and we now hear talk of
"The Big Hunt”! Sure hope you fellows are real
lucky.
That’s all for now folks. See ya next month.
Have a nice Thanksgiving "You All”.
Fruit, Apple Grove, Grape Vine, Lemon Springs,
Peach, Pearland and Cherry are towns in this State.
Tomahawk, Warrior, Cannon and Battleground
are also places in North Carolina
"B" SHIFT WHITE DEPARTMENT
By Dot Angel & Peggy Freeman
We sure were surprised when Betty Lambert
came in with a set of rings, after her marriage on
October 23. Best of luck, Betty, we wish you a
lot of happiness.
Seems as if getting married is becoming a habit.
George Limbo surprisingly announced his marriage
which took place May 9th. Congratulations,
George.
We have a couple of vacationers this week.
Gene Stewart is enjoying a week working on his
new home and Jackie Whitaker is spending a
week in Kentucky.
Tom Corbett must have gone to Cherokee on
Wednesday night of 3rd shift. He came to work
with some war paint on. Watch it, Tom.
Wonder why Amanda Corn is going around
with a long face. Could it have anything to do
with Carl Mathews going back to camp after spend
ing several days at home. What gives, Bugs?
Wonder why Georgia Ann Reid likes green
Mercurys? Could it be she has new interests.
Seems like Phil Riddle isn’t getting much sleep
this week on 3rd shift. He is too busy painting
his house yellow. Hope "you-all” like it?
Seems like Chick Loftis eye’s are as blood-shot
on day’s as they are on 3rd shift, from walking the
floor with his little crumb-crusher.
Wonder why Francis Lyday has the new name
of Strawberry, of course it’s not because she has
red hair.
We think Oscar Whitmire should start him a
pear orchard so he could furnish us all with pears.
Out on Owen Lee’s farm, he has all kind of
animal’s including chickens, pigs and cats.
We are glad to welcome Dennis Norton back
after being sick for several days.
I wish someone would find a way for Marie
Calander to cover her windshield at night, since
she has a lot of trouble getting that paper to stick.
On these cold mornings you can see two of our
girls trying to start their push-model Collapsible.
Thank goodness these graveyard’s are over. Poor
Madge almost didn’t make it. But that’s O. K. —
we know how you feel, kid.
Welcome to town Jack. We hear your moving
over with us. Hope you like it.
We are wondering why John stays down on
No. 3 machine so much. Could it be that you have
new interests down there, old boy?
This is all for this month. We will try to do
better next time. Now don’t go and stuff yourself
too much with that Thanksgiving turkey.
