Haynes Retires From Finishing Mill M A total of 24 weavers appear on the Blanket Mill’s quality honor list for the six months ending November 30. Of this number, 16 are plain or dobby weavers and eight are jacquard weavers. Added to the plain or dobby list for the latest period was Virginia LaPrad and new on the jacquard list was Carl Bradford. The listing of the quality weavers is part of a program at the Blanket Mill designed to emphasize the importance of quality weaving and to give recogni tion for outstanding records. In order to make the quality honor list, a weaver must work for six months without a major quality defect. When a weaver on the list has a ma jor quality defect, his name is dropped. Other weavers are added as they attain six months of quality work. The quality honor list for the six months ending November 30 is shown in the accompanying box.
