A Fine Time
For Fishing!
Byron Windham (right) and Mal-
lie Proffitt (ieft) may be the envy
of every Fieidcrest empioyee who
dreams of spending a weekday or
severai down at the oi’ fishing
hoie.
Windham, a retiree of Coiumbus
Towel Mill, and Proffitt, a retiree of
the Blanket Greige Mill, were each
presented with a fishing rod and
reel in February at separate sur
prise retirement parties hosted by
their fellow employees.
Windham’s surprise party was
held at the company lake in Phenix
City, Ala.; the perfect setting to
practice using his new tackle box
and rod and reel.

colleagues when he received a
variety of retirement gifts includ
ing the fishing rod and reel, a
chef’s hat and apron and a Field-
crest blanket.

Believe It Or Not!
If you’re worried about stretching your paycheck from
week to week and remembering the good old days, think
again! Those days may look better in memories than
they actually were.
Fieidcrest wages have certainly gone up since this
paycheck (above) was issued in 1937. The amount,
$10.30, was a week’s pay and even then there were de
ductions for insurance, retirement and community funds.
Maybe THESE days aren’t so bad after all!
