Piedmonitor Pix
THE NEWEST MEMBER of
the very exclusive 30 year
club of Piedmont employ
ees is Eddie Culler who is
the Service Manager of
Fixed Base. His induction
came at the last service
pin luncheon when Presi
dent Davis presented him
with the three diamond
lapel pin.
WHAT BETTER WAY to promote Piedmontiand as golfer's
land than to have our own men on the links mingle
with others who frequent the World's Greatest Greens?
That is just what Carroll Gambill, at left, and Sheri
Folger were up to as they played the most famous
course of all at St. Andrews, Scotland in conjunction
with a promotion by BOAC. The tammed twosome is
shown here in front of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club
on the old course at St. Andrews.
PIEDMONT GOT A LOT of publicity out west when Wilmington's
Post No. 10 Legion baseball team went to Oregon for the National
Championship Playoffs. They started and ended their journey via
Piedmont and in between placed fourth out of 3,100 Legion teams.
FOR 20 YEARS of working with Piedmont's flight crews Director-Flight Services
Harold Warner doesn't seem to have aged too much. He received his pin from
Mr. Davis at the last luncheon held at the home office.
