PLANT OFFICE NEWS
By Harrell Rick and Glenda Davis
Another snow has fallen today — and
although it is very pretty — most of
us here are looking forward to spring.

After spring, vacations can’t be far be
hind. The past three months have been
a very busy time for all of us. We hope
that anyone who comes to visit us
won’t get lost. Most of our offices and
personnel have been relocated. The new
face at the receptionist’s desk is Jean
Keasler. Jean is replacing Judy Jones
who has taken another job in the of
fice. As we are losing old friends and
gaining new ones, we would like to
bid farewell to Judy Fowler and Wil
lie Wallace. Willie is transferring to the
Main Office. We wish her the best of
luck on her new job. After 12 years
with A & E, Millie Miller will be leav
ing us at the end of March. Millie just
wants to be a housewife for a while.
At the same time, we would like to
welcome our new employees. Lois
Connell is employed in our Customer
Service Dept. She attends Cooks Me
morial Presbyterian Church. Lois says
she has no certains hobbies — she just
likes everything. Mickey Thompson is
a new member of bur secretarial staff.
A belated welcome to Jerry Bostic of
our Plant Office. Jerry and his wife
reside in Charlotte. They are both part-
time students at Belmont Abbey Col
lege. Jerry is a member of the Techni
cal Service Department.
Thread Shipping has several new
faces. — Kathy Perkins and her hus
band reside in Mt. Holly. They have
one child. Lola Rogers transferred to
shipping from Dyed Yarn Winding.
Rhonda Barnes has joined the Shipping
Office Staff. Rhonda is single and lives
with her parents in Stanley. Her hob
bies are sewing and having fun.
We leave you with this closing —
Allan Davenport wants everone to
know that “Old Chief” (his dog) has
gone to the happy hunting ground.
See you next issue!
People are more importanl than tools. If
you don't believe it, put a good tool into the
hands of a poor workman.
