Unemployment isn't working so
they will have to try something
else.
Let's this month have each one
contact one person who is not a
member of the Association. Who
knows? It may bring in some of
the AWOL's. We got to get the
whole group together. We can't be
hinders, we got to be fronters.
When Roy and Wanda Hill glances
eyes on these words, Routine work
will be a thing of the past. Leisure
will be the name of the game. Hope
you can do all the things you want
to do that you wanted to do while
you were answering to someone
else. If the words are not in order
and the English is poor, we mean
one thing. The best and good
health to you both.
Connie Burke and Shirley. We are
happy to hear that you will see us
in Minneapolis. Last time was
Cleveland. Good time Huh? Give us
some news.
Bill Baraniak, Fran Reed, Neil
Lyons, Harry Davis and Howie
Brooks are the latest ones to join
the group. Hello to you all. No
news. Got to tell us something. We
can't print ZEROS.
Al Lipschultz sent some photos
that he took in San Francisco.
Maybe we can get one in the Hell-
cat News. I will try. Thanks Al.
Where are the other snaps you
guys promised? Promises, Promises,
Promises is the name of a play.
Good too.
Talked to Lil Mezzy in far off
California. Bernie was working so
I couldn't have words with him.
She tells me that Bernie has a new
job and is doing wonderful. Our
condolences to Lil. Her brother
died in Philadelphia.
Remember, two can live as
cheaply as one, If they're both
working.

that Virginia is back in good
health. Doing dishes is not your
ball of wax.
