Guests Enjoy Holi
More than 650 employees and
guests attended the picnic given
by Phenix Mills, local unit of Burlington
Mills Corporation, on Saturday,
August 9, at Phenix Park.
The program began at 4 o'clock irt
the afternoon and was climaxed by
a picnic dinner served at tlx.
The plant was closed for the day,
this being one of the regularly sche
duled holidays given the employees
during the summer months.
Most of the workers took advantage
of the opportunity to bring
guests, and ail of the families were
well represented.
The first thing on the schedule
was a softball game between the
overseers and tim spinning doners.
Frank Adams, overseer in the winding
department directed the play of
the overseers; and Frank (China)
Davis did the masterminding for
the doffers. George Peeler, Superintendent,
did the umpiring, until
Adams, continually dissatisfied
with his decision, took him out of
the game, led him off into the bushes,
and "shot" him. The game was
stopped, but the final score had not
been determined at last reports. To
mention stars of the game would be
impossible, both teams playing
jam-up ball all the way.
Ail entries in the rolling pin
throwing contest showed great skill,
but.Iva Lee Pearson placed first
and Grace Huffstickler was second.
Out of forty entries in the horseshoe
pitching tournament, two
teams battled down the stretch with
Wlilard Dotson and Lewis Carroll,
the winners, and James Reinhart
and James Harrison, the runners-up.
The winners of the egg toss contest
were Fred Pearson and Roy
Pearson, and in second place were
Ernest Seism and George Pasour.
'The costume race, limited to four
men, resulted in a display of masculine
pulchritude modeling the latest
in women's wear. The winner
was Ernest Seism in a close race
with Harry Wilson, who placed sec
ond.
To the winners in a!) contests
went certificates for Burlington
Made products, which will be order
ed through the Burlington Mail Order
System, a plan availame to all
workers.
The menu, consisting of fr;ed
chicken, corn on the cob, slaw, tomatoes,
potato salad, pickles, light
bread, lemonade, coffee, ar.d ice
cream, was prepared and served by
Okie Moore and his assistants.
An amplifying system was used
for the playing of records during the
afternoon program.

The USS Ingersoll's first service
was as flagship of Admiral Royal E.
Ingersoll, then Commander-inChief,
U. S. Atlantic Fleet. The destroyer
was named in honor of the
Admiral's father, who served with
distinction during the Civil, Spanish-American
and World Wars, and
the Admiral's son, a hero of World
War II.

Turkey production from 1929 to
1944 nearly doubied, but the number
of farms raising turkeys in 1944
was abom one-third that of 1929.
Consequently, the average turkey
farm was raising more than five
times as many turkeys in 1944 than
in 1929.
