Mar^ 1942 THE ECHO Page 5 Chemoipagne Team Ten-Pin Champions ^ulp Mill Second Inspection Is Third The Champagne bowling team, led y captain Buck Albert, pushed over enough pins during the 1941-42 bowl eg season to carry away top honors the Ecusta Ten Pin League. This earn, working as a machine, was ever in danger until the last three eeks of the season at which time Pulp Team and Inspection 6am started pushing rather consist- ^tly from the number two position, hen the final whistle blew, the line- P found Champagne leading Pulp y three games. The Pulp team sewed 9H, place on Monday, March |n, by whipping the Office two out three games. Third place honors P to the draft riddled Inspection The up-and-coming Office Team ®^led for fourth position. The season’s outstanding feats were high average of Bruce Reynolds, fte high set of Jimmie Dunne and the game of “Knuckle Ball” Morris, nfortunately the swell average that th Colwell had claim to through first 26 matches was disqualified ®cause of the rule that states a pwler ineligible who has not parti- ipated in at least two-thirds of the ^eaSon’s games. . Following the close of the season the Girls’ and Men’s Duck Pin ®3gues, there will be a banquet and ^Jice in the cafeteria at which time ^^ards will be presented to winners the three leagues. Unless something unforseen pre- k^Qts Mr. Straus from attending the Lj^^uet, he will be guest speaker of F® evening. Mr. Raymond Bennett act as master of ceremonies.

He did! At the present time a great per cent of the cigarette paper produced by the Machine Book let Department is being sent to U. S. Soldiers. It seems that Mary Carolyn and Carolyn of this department may be come globe trotters, that is, if a cer tain soldier keeps being transferred. First the girls planned a trip to Mis sissippi, then they were forced to change their destination to New York and at the present time are awaiting further information, but you can bet they’ll go somewhere. Buddy Hunt has turned out to be an early riser. He is up with the SON nowadays. Buddy’s new addition to the family is Edwin Jr. Mae Whitmire is to be commended for her splendid effort to save auto mobile tires. “What better way,” asked Mae, “than to learn to ride a bicycle?” Well, that’s fine if she con tinues to handle the two wheeled affair as she recently did, as she will very well save tires, but may not be able to work. Those melancholy days are coming in the Spring of the year for Agnes (Allison). Her “one and only” will leave in April for the Army. If the girls who come to work in this department in the future are as lovely as the last few, the Machine Booklet wiU look like an Atlantic City Beauty Contest. Inspection Boys Are Moving Fast The Blockers Ronnie Orr has finally found her man. After all these years of search ing for a tall, dark and handsome man he turns out to be a striking blond. Of course, she hasn’t had the proper introductions yet but she’s all full of hopes. . . . Kat M. is back at work after a short illness. Could it be that her most delightful callers, Charlie Rev. Clarence Garren had something to do with her speedy re covery? Yes, could be . . . The block ers certainly do miss Janie Wilson but we can’t say that wee Margaret (songbird) Ponder doesn’t fill her place well.... In case of a recurrence of our recent snowfall, don’t call a wrecker. We recommend Jessie Lance. She’ll be glad to render service at any time. Some pushing power, Jes sie! . . . We’re lucky to have Char lotte B. as private detective in our crowd. She sees all, hears all, and knows all. For further niformation see T. K., B. L. and A. P. ... If be ing true to your soldier sweetheart means building morale and winning this war, Wylma Blythe’s boyfriend should be able to whip those Japs single-handed. tell /oU i^Ppers ^^oert . ?oggs . 168 166 165 161 158 157 3tthews 154 yUoway 150 w- Morris 150 'ewbu^ 150 K Individual High Three Games }^ne 607 h^'ael 588 ^^ynolds 588 Individual High Single Games We learn from Champagne Hand- booklet that Lt.

Con- gratulatiops, also to the lucky fiancee, Robert Jackson, who works in the Re finer Room. Talking about protection, I hear that life in Florida is just so much more enjoyable when leisure hours can be spent in the company of strong athletes. For further information drop around and chat awhile with Rose Wolfe. Why has Eula Whitlock lost her talkativeness ever since she had to stay home a day during the recent snow? Bobby Anders wants it understood that he will gladly shake anybody’s hand now, but when little Elsie will be “Miss America of 1960”, he’U be more particular. Talking about Bobby “A”, mention to him the fact that Charlie Colwell is Tennis Champion of Ecusta, and just listen to him. . . . How about getting your tennis racket out this summer, Bob, and let it talk for a while? ampagne Leads Duck Pin League Ust Friday night, the Champagne Pin Team virtually clinched place in the Ecusta Men’s Duck League by defeating the Inspec- ^ Team two games to one. There possibility that Inspection can the league lead providing they C games from the Paper Mill ^ Champagne loses two games. Hooper of Inspection came with a high game of 152 to if^^tically sew up single game hon- owier of Champagne still retains ^«igh set of 376. ^ftis and Fowler are very near be- ^ied for high averages. Final 1^, ages will be released after the Co Friday, March 20th. League Standings Jimmie Sledge blew his whistle and clanged his bell, And ran in the office with a mighty yell. He blinked his eyes and pulled his Handbooklet NewS nose. Then turned to Gordon, said. Boy, grab a hose!” He pulled his mustache and said, “Boys, you’d better jump For No. 2 battery is about to dump.” He went over to Fisher with his hands in his hair, And said, “May I borrow your helper, Whitmire? “3 is behind with an empty chest, McCaU and McBride are doing their ^^S’id to Jimmie, “Where are Bill and Ed?” Jim thought for a moment, «irr3tcli6(i his hGfld And “eplied, “I don’t know, they are slv like a mouse. I’ll find them but this is a very large house.” . ,,, So up jumped Gaither, his paddle he slung, j a ij h/tp. Then ran oyer on No. 7 and told M - “What’s up?

B. was so excited he dumped broke and ran, He yelled back to Sitton, ‘ Snap up if you can!” . The boss fumed and bellowed, and out of my way! Get the boys on the conveyor young Galloway!” So they all met together in one big clump. And thought it such fun to see battery 2 dump. Miss Ruby Baynard announced her marriage to Ray Rigdon of the Finish ing Dept, which took place January 31, at Pickens, S. C. . . . Wedding bells are tolling for Blanche Hollings worth who was married February 4th to Donald Hampton at Greenville, S. C. . . . Myrtle Little is sporting a diamond ring which announces her engagement to Ray Cook who was employed in the main office but who is now doing a job for Uncle Sam. . . Phil Riddle is spending more time in Brevard, especially Satur day nights. . . . They employ some pretty mean fellows in the stitching dept. They just sit there eating candy in front of G. Hensley until her ton gue hangs out. . . . Well Bonnie, did you accept that marriage proposal? . Clarence Garren came to work with his face all cut up. He said it came as a result of a fall while rid ing his bicycle but we wonder. . . . Bob Clayton has been showing off his wings. He finished his CPT course in Hendersonville and it won’t be long before he will leave us to take an advanced course in flying. Good luck. Bob. ... The hardest day’s work we’ve had so far was last Tues day, March 3, when only 50 out of 160 showed up for work. . . • We had three very good games the other night when Hand Booklet B played End less Belt. Hand Booklet came out on top with two games to one for End less. Hand Booklet B Maintains Lead With only two weeks to go in the final Ecusta Women’s Duck Pin Lea gue, Hand Booklet B remains in the envied top spot in the league. Endless Belt rates 2nd position with Office running close for 3rd. Several changes in the past two weeks find some of our long ranking top raters pushed to second and third places in individual competition. Ann Morris still maintains her early lead with a 90 pin average with May- mie Reynolds in 2nd place with 89. Sarah Avery lost her high single game record to Virginia Carland who rolled up a 116 game to push Sarah to 2nd position with 115. However, Sarah now holds the “3 game” record previously held by her teammate, Ann Morris, for on the 4th of March she rolled a 302 against Ann’s 297. On March 12 Mary Sue Thorne of Endless belt tied Ann for 2nd place. We are all agreed that this has been the greatest bowling season in Ecus- ta’s history and to climax the season a banquet is being arranged for all Ecusta bowlers. At this time trophies will be awarded to top teams and special recognition will be given those individuals who, in the minds of their teammates, are deserving of this hon or. Any Ecustan who has played one game during league play is eligible to attend this banquet. Announcement as to date will be made the first week of April. Ecusta 5th In Tri-City League The two snow storms that presented themselves during the monfhs of Feb ruary and March played havoc with the Tri-City bowling league schedule. Due to postponements of matches, the league standings remain almost iden tical to the previous month. The only change that is noticeable is the spurt made by “Knuckle Ball” Morris in the league averages. He fin ally managed to take over the high average and push Bruce Reynolds down to second place. On March 30th, the Ecusta Bowl ing Team will enter the W. N. C. An nual Handicap Tournament in Ashe ville. Several bowlers from our own Ecusta League intend to place their names on the entry list.
