News And Refining News By JACK RHODES The big news in the beater house this month is about none other than a dog. Seems as if most everybody wants Burgin’s “14-inch trout-catching dog”. Among his offers for the dog is a milk cow from Clarence Nichol son; Ed Whitmire would like to swap several bee-hives if he can— if not, he will give ’em to Bur- gin, anyhow. Not to be out-bid on •the dog, that “Terror of Transyl vania Trout,” Bud White is offer ing four cans of Prince Albert, a second-hand'toupee, and offers to keep Burgin furnished with cof fee (with sugar) on evenings and graveyard. At this writing, Burgin is holding out for more and better offers. Incidentally, Hubbard Sledge reported a nice vacation—6Vz days of clouds and rain, % day of sunshine, and a wonderful time warming his tootsies before a good warm fire, while the thermometer registered 38 degrees on the out side. ' Cecil Whitmire finally got back, and is telling that he practically lived in a trout stream for ten days. Reported a pice catch; would say how many, but he is afraid the game warden might read the £c|io, too. Other vacationists are Frank Tinsley, V. Owens, Guy Emerson, Lloyd Cable, J. Patterson, C. Thomas and C. Orr, with C. Reid on deck right away. Bud White must be planning to run for dog-catcher in Rosman, from the practice he’s getting. Af ter buying an old flea-bitten hound from Jerry Freeman, Bud decided to de-flea the dog. Placing him in an airtight pasteboard box, he turned on the flea spray, not only killing the fleas, but the dog as well. Now he is trying to make Freeman refund a dollar on the purchue price. It is looking like old home-town week for the beater room. Bill Cauble, Charlie Russell and Jack Wijbw are in town on furloughs. Jack has recently been promoted to S-Sgt. and expects to report back the last of July for duty in the Pacific. Charlie is recovering from flak wounds, and will report back to an Army hospital in Ala bama. Bill Cauble, fat as a rail, is in town after serving in the Navy on New Caledonia. He is looking good, so Uncle Sam must feed him steaks and ham, instead of baloney, eh. Bill? All of the boys are looking swell, and de clare that Brevard, N. C., is the garden spot of the world. Glad to get a letter from Sgt. Roy Jarvis, who is in Austria at present. He has seen a lot of the world the hard way, and when he .first saw the Alps his first thought Wiis of Enno Cariienzind, his old foreman, who was from Switzer land. Enno is still in New Guinea, Roy, and from what I can gather, is doing fine. Roy says he gets his Echo regularly, and always looks for the next Issue. . Dick Perron is thinking of learn ing to play a mouth harp, so he can join Talley's band, and Jim mie Sledge is thinking of learn ing to play baseball. Since they nicknamed No, 4 machine “The Cannon Ball,” Mitch Lance goes through the basement to get to No. 1. From th« way our Super, Finishing Dept. News “B” Shift By GINNY STEWART And BERTHA EDWARDS Looking around the Finishing department this month, we f i n.d that Charlie and his girls (Mar garet, Sallie, and Gladys) have really been having fun lately, a watermelon cutting and a trip to^he Smokies all in the same week. Mildred Frisbee had a big time in little Rhode Island. She also visited many places of interest in and around New York City. Alberta, you must never go to Lake Lure again all alone! From the reports, Charles Mc- Graw must have ha^ a wonderful time in Daytona and Fort Lauder dale. Could it be the sunshine that put on those extra pounds? We wonder if Virginia Burrell visited her brother in Norfolk or if that was just an excuse to see some handsome sailor. Mr. Matheson was missing from the Finishing department for al most a week. We would like to correct the rumor that he was in Frank Patton, has gone to town in the bond drive, the boys are wondering where the string band v/as. Congrats to Frank, and also to the boys who pitched in and bought bonds. Dead line is here again, so, So Long, Folks. the dog house—it was only the warehouse. We’re sorry that Hubert Orr had to have his appendix taken out and hope that he will soon be able to be back with us. Who says Martha Lee’s enthus iasm won’t help to make her a good cadet nurse?
