SHIFT COATING
By Nathan Reed
The month of the big feed
is here again. Snow has fallen
in these hills—hunting season
and the big bucks are again
the talk of the town.
r many changes
[■ brought about a change in
personnel for D Shift. We are
losmg Coy Corn to Polyethylene. We all wish Coy
success on his new job, knowing quite well he will
make them as good an operator as he did us.
Since last writing Joe Whitmire and Nathan
Reed loafed away a week each on vacation. Joe is
the proud new father of a son, born October 14.
He took his vacation a few days after his arrival
and played handyman, taking care of the house for
a few days. The new heir is named Gary Stephen.
The Coating team of the Ecusta Handicap Bowl
ing League is tied at present for 2nd place. We
look for Captain Joe Whitmire to break this tie
and pull Coating on up to first place.
Does anyone know where I can hire a secretary
for lunch period.? Cheap I mean—I want someone
to take down in shorthand everything said at the
first table in the Cafeteria for inclusion in a new
book I’m planning in competition with Robert
Ripley’s "Believe it or Not.”
With malice toward none; with charity for all;
with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see
the right, let us strive on to finish the work we
are in; to bind up the nation’s wounds, to care
for him who shall have borne the battle, and for
his widow and his orphan—to do all which may
achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace amon^
ourselves and with all nations.” *
—Abraham Lincoln, Second Inaugural
Address, March 4, 1865.

"A" SHIFT FINISHING
By Jim Schreiber
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Zeigler were gifted with
a baby boy October 17. His name is Van Blake
and he weighs 9 lbs. 9 02. CONGRATULATIONS!
Well, football season is about ovsr and every
body is starting to talk basketball, but I can say
that this was one interesting season. Although I’ve
been on this shift only a few weeks, I found a
great rivalry between the supporters of Hender
sonville and Brevard. Hendersonville ended up
with a better record than Brevard and was rated
higher in the schoolboy ratings. Yet there was one
big, ugly black spot on their record — Brevard
14 - Hendersonville 7.
Bill Parris took his vacation November 1 with
the intentions of getting plenty of hunting done.
He forgot about the weather, it was bitter cold,
snowed, and the temperature reached an all time
low. Better luck next time, Bill.
Speaking of hunting, I guess this shift has got
ten its share of it so far. Hunting seems to be the
main topic of discussion in the "smoker” these
days. Everyone seems to be having pretty good
luck too. They say so anyway.
That’s about it from this corner of the Film Di
vision so until next time — SO LONG!
