From the Folding Department, he was transferred in 1948 to assistant ship ping clerk; and in 1950, he was named supervisor of the Pairing Department. Served In Marines His new assignment in the Pairing Department was interrupted by a year with the United States Marines at Camp Lejeune, N, C. He returned to A'dams- Millis in December of 1952 as a super visor of the Boarding Department of P]ant,#7. He was again named super visor of the Pairing Department in 1964.

He and Mrs. Eddinger, the former Miss Doris Leonard of Thomasville, have been active in the youth training pro gram of the church. For three years, Claude has assisted in the Little League Baseball Program of Thomasville. He is cur rently coaching the Thomasville Jaycee team. One would quickly guess that his hobby is baseball. His three sons (Mike, age 13; Jeff, age 11; and Robbie, age 5), already active in Little League, keep him busy the year round. They fish, too, when there isn't a ball game or practice. Outstanding Safety Record Eddinger's efforts in promoting safety are evident in the record that his department has worked more hours than any other department of Adams- Millis without a lost-time accident. Since September 3, 1957, the Pairing Department has worked 1, 156, 128 hours without time lost due to injury on the job. Asked how he accounts for the splendid safety record, he said, "We constantly keep looking for any thing that might constitute a hazard. Our pairers have become conscious of keeping our department in order. We are proud of our record. " a OBEY "^FBHRUL^l
