points. Th is club was firs t in April. Third in the .June contest was

the Chicago Color Camera Club with 136 points. The club placed first in February and second in March.

The Columbus Camera Club was fourth with I 34 points and Kodak Camera Club was fif th with 130. The Kodak Club was second in April and firs t in May.

R. H. Souers First

Individual honors for the June competition went to R. H. Souers of the Hawthorne Club. His slide, "Fishermen," scored 28 out of a possible 30 points. Second place went to Blanche Kolarik, of the Hawthorne Club, her s l ide, "Batzcuaro Butterflies ," getting 26 points. E. E. Smith of the Chi­cago Color Camera Club placed third with his slide, "Storm Clouds."

The s lide, "Fishermen," by Souers, was adjudged first in the grand finals of the year, in which the first three slides in the five competitions were entered. " Batz­cuaro Butterflies" was second. Third went to Hubert Johnson of the Hawthorne Club, who is pres­ident of the PSA Color S ection.

Fr ank Obcrkoetter of Kodak Office, Clifford Ulp of Mechanics Institute a nd Arthur Underwood of Rochester Gas & Electric Cor­poration were judges.

Wait until the dial tone begins before starting to dial the tele­phone number you want.

Dial precisely, bringing each figure as far to the right as possible a nd wait until the dial r eturns to i ts original position before dialing the next figure.

These two rules have been set forth by the Telephone Offices of Koda k Office, Kodak Park, Hawk­Eye and Camera Works, in an effort to give better service and decrease the wrong-number calls.

The dia l telephone system is entirely mechanical and does not begin to operate until the dial tone begins. If dialing is begun before the tone, the first digit is either reduced by one or dropped entirely, resulting in a wron g num­ber being obtained. F or instance, 3154 becomes 2154 or 154.

One timesaver pointed out by the Telephone Offices is to listen while dialing, and ii a busy signal is received after dialing t he first digit, ha ng up. F or example, if after dia ling 3 of 3154 the busy signal is received, this indicates that a ll the switches serving the 3000-number phon es are busy and it would be useless to dial the rest of the number.

YOUR Savings and Loan This is a s ummarization of four previou s articles to acquaint

new employees with the various services offered by the Eastman Savings & Loan Association a nd to r emind older employees of these services.

The Association has assets of over $10,500,000 and has ample money in readiness ior mortgages now a nd after the war when build­ing restrictions are lifted.

More than 2300 e mployees at present are financing home pur­chases through Association mort­gages. Thousands of others in the pas t have built or financed home buying through Association f unds. First- mortgage loans currently held total over $6,669,000. The As­sociation offers the advantages of pay-roll deductions to take care of mortgage payments as w ell as friendly assistance in solving fi­nancial problems that m ay arise.

The Savings & Loan bas four objectives:

Promote thrift. Provide a convenient, safe and

profitable means for employees to 1ove and invest their funds.

Provide a method easily with-

in the r each of the average per­son for the purchase of a home by granting mortgage loans and providing the means of accumu­la ting down payments by pay­roll deductions.

P r o v i d e short-term loans (modernization loans) for prop· erty improvements. Besides the usual m ethods of­

fered K oda k people to save for the fu ture, the Association has han­dled the sale of 13lh million dol­lars in War B onds through pay­roll deductions and has i tself bought over three million dollars worth of government securities.

The regular methods of saving are:

Zoo Notes When a raccoon perched him­

self in a tree along the south walk at the main entrance to Kodak Park on La ke Avenue recently, it posed quite a prob­lem for the Yard Dept., under whose jurisdiction fall all such minor crises.

The department's "master minds" puzzled over the prob­lem of removing the 'coon. The most effective, but rather drastic, suggestion came from Ted Cook, Yard Dept. superin­tendent. His thought was to have the tree cut down and to then "sic" hound dogs on the animal.

However, action was post­poned and it was decided to go home and sleep over the matter.

When the Yard men got back the next day, the problem and the raccoon were gone.

T hose wishing more information on the services of the Association or who desire to discuss home buy­ing or building problems may take advantage of the consultation serv­ice, offered without charge or ob­ligation, at the Association's m ain office in Koda k Office, 343 State St.

Song Fest_ Singing proved a popular feature of the entertain-ment program given by KPAA girls Saturday night,

Hawk-Eye Passes Bond Quota Five Days Before End of War Loan Drive

The Fifth War Loan .drive at Hawk-Eye passed into h istory yesterday, with the quota of $515,000 pas~ed by th~ tlme the campaign was three-quarters over. At the halfway point, despite an encouragmg start, 1t was doubted by some that it would be poss ible for H awk-Eye to meet its quota. At the close of the· pla nt's ,--------------- - - --- ------ - - -­"Memorial Day" last Wednesday, however, these doubts were dis­pelled by reports showing that the pla nt was over t he top.

That day had been dedicated to the memory of those Hawk-Eye men who had died in service: 1st Lt. Charles V. Case, 1st L t . J ames E. Elliott, 2nd Lt. George A. P ark­house and 2nd Lt. Richard L . Smith. In noontime ceremonies in the plant cafeteria Hawk-Eye men and women rose to their feet to pay tribute to the great sacrifice that each of these servicemen had made, for his country.

Clarke Gives Address

P lant Engineer Sydney Clarke addressed t he crowd. "Today is Memorial Day at Hawk- Eye Works," he said. "T oday we hold in sacred memory our buddies w ho went for th from this plant in free­d om's cause and who never again will return to work with us . To these men we dedicate all of our activities today in t he War Bond drive. You bought bonds for D-Day. Buy more than before for V-Day. Buy them today in honor of those of our lads who gave their lives that we may have our lives to live in the manner of free men and women."

Annual Picnic Slated July 29

The 26th Annual Picnic of the Hawk-Eye Athletic Association has been set for Saturday, July 29, at Seneca Park, according to a n an­nouncement made this week by HEAA Director Cap Carroll.

Transportation problems are still important enough to have been a vital factor in the decision of the executive committee to have the picnic as near home as possible.

If the weather is favorable, this year's attendance should more than double last year's five thousand, Genera l Chairman Emil Steinle estimates.

Others already at work on plans for the p icnic are J ack Vass, in charge of sports; Gretchen Van Zandt, program; Gertrude Nichol­son, tickets; Bill Doran, first aid; Sid Leggatt, photography; Carl Easton, public-address system; Lindsay ·Sondheim, publicity ; AI Desbrow, sportscasting .

Picnic tickets will be made avail­able to all HEAA members without charge. These tickets will be good for refreshments, merry-go-round rides, peanuts and candy.

" Feel any change after your va­cation?"

" Not a cent."

Large Purchases Made

Among notable purchases not yet reported in KODAKERY were the $5400 in bonds bought by Wil­liam Marks, Dept. 62, and the $2000 in bonds purchased by Charlie Snapp. A $100 bond was bought through Dept. 17 by Philip Sar- · ver while home last week on leave from the Merchant Marine. Clara Knapp, with a nephew on a sub­chaser in the Atlantic, another in Italy and a brother in the invasion forces, bought $600 in bonds. Mar­jorie Robinson, with a nephew in the invasion forces, bought $300 worth as her contribution. Visits Plant- Re!lr ~dmiral

Honorary Chairman William T . Roach summed up the sentiments at the executive offices with this statement: "As usual, I am proud of Hawk-Eye men and women. I am particularly proud of those who participated in the Fifth War L oan drive, the members of the commit­tee and the solicitors, who by their diligent work made it so great a success."

AS CHAIRMAN OF THE BOND DRIVE AT YOUR PLANT. HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THE 5TH WAR LOAN DRIVE?

I J. H. Parker. Kodak Park:

" Because of the physical size of Kodak Park and the number of people we have here, the period for our drive runs u ntil J uly 4-the best pos­sible day for the Park to successfully wind up a bond drive. For a fully- s ubscri be d quota is exactly what I expect the men and women of K o d a k Park to a c h i eve. The1·e's no question about it in my mind. The Park has shown marvelous spirit in the past and it will th is t ime as our hard­work ing solici tors com plete their rounds. All con tacts made so far indicate that Park people will again be high up in the lists of home-f1·ont patriots exceeding I 00 per cent of their War Bond quotas. That's been our record, and it's one I feel we will maintain in the 5th War Loan ."

Dick Howland. Hawk-Eye: "Just l ike everyone else in Hawk-Eye,

I feel swell about our 5th War Loan drive. At the start it seemed

a lmost impossible for us to hit the increased quota our plant, like others, was given to meet. But our men in the Army and Navy supplied the answer to tha t problem. After what they did during the early days of the drive, the men and women of Hawk-Eye could hardly do any­thing else but top thei r bond quota. And they did-before the period set as ide for our plant's drive was three-quarters over. I want to thank the solicitors and each individual bond pur­chnseJ· for their unprecedented efforts. It hns been just the support needed for our fighters who are doing an even bigger job for us far from home.

EMERY CRANE

ANDREWS

EMERY ANDREWS. of Kodak Park's Film Planning and Record Dept .. has never been to sea- but he has

a fleet of almost 500 navy fighting ships, and the U.S. Navy has asked him to build 2500 more.

Th e statement becomes m o re credible when you lea rn that his sh ips are minia­tures, built to a scale of 64 feet to an inch . But when you see the number and the exactitude of " Andy 's" navy, a maze­ment again ta kes over.

Andrews was reared in Brunswick, Me., w hich , to t he initiated , is sufficient to exp lain his in fatua tion for sh ips. As a young man, "Andy" wanted to enter Annapolis, but parental objection post­poned his navy career unti l recent yea rs.

S tamps were h is principal in te r est unti l the la te 1930's. When England and France became involved in World Wa r II , Andrews shifted his entire spare­t ime activities to ships, securing all available ma nua ls to supplement h is al­ready large library. Soon thereafter the firs t battles h ip came off his home a s­sembly line.

''Andy'' can't recall just how long it took him to make his first model. But now, having streamlined his process, he never spends more than 12 hours on any one model. and has turned out some in 30 minutes during evenings or week ends.

Andrews' flee t , with but few excep­tions. are replicas of vessels launched prior to 19-11 and date back to the days when Amer ican figh t ing ships rode in to battle under sai l. Battlesh ips, destroye rs, c r uise rs . ai rcraft carriers. tan ks, oi le rs,

1 colliers, escort vesse ls, converted yachts - ''Andy" has them a l l. At first glance, it appears that he has already made a r e ­p l ica of every s h ip in the U .S . fleet. But , a lthough he has destroyers by the scores, Andrews assures us that his navy is only a " task force" when compa r ed to the an­nounced proportions of the U.S. Navy in 1944 . Nor does it include the very latest naval craft.

Much as he migh t desire, " Andy" r eal­izes full well that his mocle ls cannot de­pict new and perhaps secret designs or include unannounced weapons.

' 'Andy 's" original model of a ny one type of ship is made of balsa w ood. All work is done by ha nd. His "pliers" are t weezers. His "sandpaper" an emery fin ­gernail board. Once he has completed a model for a certa in class vessel, " Andy'' makes a mold from which he can turn out as many hulls as d esir ed-letter per ­fect , and a ll bearing the grain o f the balsa wood o r iginal.

Not all of Andrews' fleet are navy. T he re a re som e merchantmen and some passenger l ine rs. His Queen Mary and Normandie are beautiful m inia tures with their gay, peacetime trim.

Mounted on s helves, " Andy 's" sh ips have been displayed throughout the country. They toured the nation as part of a Four Freedoms show. T hey were displayed at Macy's in New York in J une of this year and at the State Street audi­torium last w eek. They a re now on ex­hibit il') Wash ington, D.C.

Bob Fisher. Kodak Office: "Great! Kodak Office, considering its

relat ively small number of employees, had n really formidable quota to meet in the 5th War Loa n. When we passed the $200,-000 mark last Wed­nesday afternoon we knew tha t the Kodak spi r it is even more ac­t ive than it has been in the past. The peo­ple of the Office have mor e than shown that they realize the part they m ust take in backing the attack of the men who are en­gag in g both the Nazis and the Nips. I especially want to thank_ the committee chairmen, the team captams, and the campaign workers, with­out whose help we never could have reached our goal."

Sid Hines, Camera Works: "I can't heap too m uch p raise upon both

our employees and our bond solicitors who cooperated in the War Loan campaign. They have a II done a great job. That goes for all of the men and women of Camera Works, whether 'old­timers' or newcomers. I especially like the example of a new girl who, on her first day of work, signed up for

!sUGGESTION SYSTEM-VICTORY AID, MONEY-MAKER I The men and women of the Eastman Kodak Company were $50,756.33 richer last

year because of 3375 suggestions. Some of the suggesters received checks for SlOOO. Some received $2. But whether their ideas concerned a product improvement, a reduction in manufacturing costs. or pointed a better way to guard against lire or accidents. the idea contributors were richer. too. in the knowledge that their sug­gestions were helping Kodak help America win its war.

Hawk-Eye's Anne Ridley was one of the 3375 Kodak people who turned in adopted ideas. Her cash award was $120. Her idea was not overly complex. Many winning ideas are almost obvious-that's why they occur to people. But someone must get the idea FIRST. Unfortunately, however, many of those with whom idea~ originate believe that others must have thought of the same thing-and that any­thing seemingly so evident would already have been adopted if there weren' t a "bug" in it.

Anne Ridley didn't think that way. She knew there was no door about the plant marked "Idea Office," She figured that even if there were people who spent all their time beating their brains out in pursuit of new ideas, they might have been too busy to think of hers-and that, after all, this was a good time for ALL of us to be idea thinker-uppers, each on his or her own job.

So Anne turned in her idea- and what happened is told in the pictures on this page.

Each Kodak plant has its own Suggestion System organization. The Office sys-

tern also takes care of the ideas from Kodak stores and branches. Each system has its secretary, and all suggestion blanks go to him to be dated-to establish priority, to be given a serial number. and. of course, to be acknowledged by a letter of re ­ceipt to the suggester. Copies of the suggestions are passed along to the heads of departments concerned. When all reports are in, and if these returns indicate a "thumbs up" atti'lude. the idea is presented for final approval. If it hilS been pos­sible to estimate the full savings and value of the idea. after a thorough study of all the facts. the award is made. If the idea is recommended on a time-will-tell basis, a preliminary award is made. to be followed. perhaps. some months later. by a sup­plementary award after the idea has proved its value.

Those suggestions which fall by the wayside are not ignored. Their contributors are told, in writing, or in person. why their ideas failed to click-and their sugges­tions can be reopened at any time for further investiga tion.

Most suggestions, these days. have to do with Kodak's war products. Each sug­gestion secretary. however. has his files for ideas on postwar improvements to post­war products. Their contents indicate that many of us have learned a lot which will be helpful to the Company, and to the contributors. when tho contents of these files are brought up for consideration.

Read the story of Anne Ridley-chances are you can think up a winning award. too. Then. get yourself a suggestion blank and fill it out. If it rings the bell it will be good for America, good for your Company, and good for you.

1 Wonder_ Anne Ridley. assembler in _Ha_wk-Eye Dept. 11. wonders why the ms1de sur­

face of the len10 cap for Kodak's K -24 Aircraft Camera couldn' t be given a rough paint surface instead of going through a more expensive threading operation.

L 'k Th • Anne tells her story to Henry Freitag, I e IS- assistant foreman of the department.

"Gosh-why didn't I think of that one myself?" says Henry. He encourages Anne to talk over her idea with the general foreman.

S d G d General Foreman Bob McGrail OUn S 00 - thinks Anne has something. He

helps her write out a full description of the idea on one of the suggestion blanks available to every Kodak em­ployee in plants or Office.

H Suggestion Secretary Herbert Knop. m-m-m - and his secretary. Bobbie Foster, are

going to pass Anne's idea along to the supervisors of all Hawk-Eye departments which will be affected by elimin­ating the cap threading.

Kodak Park Takes Undisputed Major League Lead Hawk-Eye Now in 2nd As Ritters Lose Pair

Kodak Park took undisputed possession of first place in the Major Softball League last week by scoring two victories, one over Hitters, previously tied for top honors. Hawk-Eye also won two games to take over the second berth, knocking off Ritters and Balcos.

The P ark nosed out Balcos be­sides taking the measure of Ritters.

The Hawks took the measure of Ritters, 2 to 0, on Monday night and then nosed out the Balcos in nine innings on Wednesday, 2 to 1.

J ohn Bonacci's big bat was a contributing factor in each game. He singled in the second inning

of the Ritter game a nd sco red on Sulli's triple. Sulli tallied on a passed ball. Against Bal­cos, John knocked out a two-run homer in the last inning.

The Haw k-Ritter contest was a n ip­a nd-tu c k affair and a pitcher's

Bonacci battle de luxe-Senger a llowing

but one hit and Ciaccia only two. Sen ger came back to hold the

Balcos to three hits Wednesday, while his teammates gathered five off the twirling of Kuhn. After four scoreless innings, each team pushed over a run in the fifth and the count was dead-locked until the ninth when Bonacci connected for his four-baser. The Balcos weren't beaten yet, however, and Kuhn led off with a triple and scored on an er ror. Senger settled down and got the next three men out in order.

All the Park-Balco scoring came in tr.e fifth inning. The Bnlco:: shoved over their tally when Cal­lipare walked, went to third on

ladies even playing softball as they plead with Um­pire Eddie Tarsz to change a decision. what with straightening his tie, holding his hand and putting their arms around him. Of course it' s just a gag "shot" because the gals raise heck just like the men when they disagree on a d ecision.

Tally 1 _ Kodak Park's Hazel Luce crosses the • pla te t o score one of the Kaypee 12

runs against Camera Works. Mickey VerHoeven, Camera's catcher . is chasing the ball on a throw-in from one of her teammates, but its too late. The Park lassies t eed off on Pitcher Tarricon of the Cameras in the second inning, scoring six runs. The losers got a lone counter.

I The aroma of liniment was so

strong around K odak Office Friday m orning you could slice it with a print cutter.

The reason was that the Old-Tim­ers' Softball League got under way Thursday night at Brown Square.

Don McConville's Grunts scor ed a lopsided victory over Bob F isch­er's Groans, 14 to 4.

It was a tight battle up to the fifth when Fischer's men began coming apart at the seams and from then on the outcome was never in doubt--even McConville stretched a s ingle into a home run.

Barney Pilot started in the out­fie ld for the Groa ns but Manager Fischer finally had to let him catch
