INew Supermarket in Auburn Opens Doors to Delighted Public

IIIf-

f

I

When the new Store 32 in Auburn was unveiled by tak-

ing the wrapping paper from the windows shortly beforenoon on Wednesday, August 10, this was the view pre-sented to residents of the community. Note the design,which is similar only to Store 42 in Seward. It is construct-

ed primarily of concrete blocks and steel, with a large ex-panse of plate glass at the front of the store. Brilliant,but not glaring, lighting emphasizes the tasteful decor andbrings out the graceful lines of modern shelving and fixtures.

Then came the ribbon-cutting. Taking part in the cere-mony were, left to right, Non-Foods Buyer Clarence Hearn;Chamber of Commerce President Byford Elwonger; HinkyDinky Vice President Chuck Monasee; Jaycee PresidentJoe Edwards; Mayor Claude Matthews; (partly hidden)Bakery and Dairy Supervisor Glen Alley and Store ManagerElvin Shew; Miss Nebraskaland, Pat Knippelmier; (partlyhidden) Chamber Office Manager Sharon Krickbaum; Miss

Auburn, Mary Ann Griffith; and (partly hidden) Store Super-visor AI Opperman. Other notables also were present.

Next came the people-singly and in droves. Somecame to look and to visit; others came to shop and totake advantage of the outstanding bargains that are alwaysavailable on the shelves of every Hinky Dinky store. Every-one was most welcome.

Part-Timers Are BriefedOn Food Field Careers;Executives Are Teachers

In line with national thinking that to-day's youth needs more informationconcerning business and industry, thE>opportunities they offer and what theyrequire in return, Hinky Dinky has setup a Career Days program to enlightenits part-time employees regarding thefield of food distribution.

Four day-long programs were present-ed for part-timers in Omaha and thesurrounding area. Two half-day sessionswere held in Lincoln. Others were orwill be in Des Moines and out-state Ne-braska.

Spe'akers who have participated inthe programs to date include: PresidentNick Newman; Executive Vice PresidentBob Newman; Board Chairman J. M.Newman; Vice President Chuck Mona-see; Personnel Diredor Jim Herron;Store Supervisor Sam Garafalo; Person-nel Supervisor Bill Fast; Checker In-structor Nita Schroeder; Grocery BuyerAllen Noddle; Assistant Store ManagersJim Huyck and Cal Campbell; and youreditor.

The speakers pointed out that HinkyDinky is limited in its plans to expandits operations only by the scarcity ofcapable, trained personnel; that experi-ence gained through part-time employ-ment during the school years providesthe means for more rapid advancementin the full-time ranks; and that thereare many opportunities now and in thefuture for capable, ambitious and de-serving employees who desire a careerin food distribution.

The speakers also explained that thereis much more involved in the supermar-ket business than the actual selling ofgroceries; there are opportunities in ac-counting, advertising, buying, labor re-lations, personnel, operations, transpor-tation, and other allied activities.

At the end of each session, everypart-timer who attended was pre'senteda "graduation certificate" signed byHinky Dinky's president, vice presidentand personnel director. Each also re-ceived a "Sacker's Manual," a copy of"The Hinky Dinky Story," and a "HinkyDinky Staff" T-shirt. The Omaha em-ployees also were given a tour of theDistribution Center.

Hinky Dinky is confident that its part-time employees now have a better un-derstandinq of the American free-enter-prise system.

The honeymoon is over when the hus-band gets out of the car at a drive-inmovie to wipe off the windshield.-Brooks (Alta.) Bulletin.July - August 1966

Warehouse Crew DaresStore 69 Softball TearnTo Place Title on Line

After seeing the smiling faces ofStore 69's championship softball teamin the last issue of the News, HinkyDinky warehousemen and drivers areloudly protesting. In their opinion,Store 69 "doesn't have- the necessarydepth of feeling t'0 be in charge of anice little guy like Squeezix (the trophy).We are better qualified to give him thelovinq care- and attention he deserves,and we are ready, willing and able toprove it on the field of honor."

To further emphasize their determina-tion to take the champi'0nship fromLincoln, the warehousemen and drivershave' issued the following challenge:

"Whereas, we, the warehousemen anddrivers softball team, having amassedamong us the greatest aggregation ofsoftball talent to be found thr-oughoutthe length and breadth of our company,and

"Whereas, we consider the so-calledchampions, hereinafter referred to asthe Unmentionables, so..lackingin thetalent departme-nt that they are unableto hit their '0wn mouths with a wetnoodle, field a bean-bag or throw any-thing but the proverbial bull, and

"Whereas, the so-called championsare adept only in the art of running, asproved by their running away fromand artfully dodging opportunities toprove the-ir mettle,

"Now, therefore, Be It Resolved thatunless aforementioned Unmentionablesaccept this challenge to prove theirright to the title of champion by law-ful C'0mpetition at a time and placemutually agreed upon by both teams,said title shall be declared forfeit,and the trophy shall pass into the handsof the challengers.

"If this challenge is accepted and acontest shall be forthcoming, may thebest team win-and we hope the Un-mentionables won't feel too badly '0vertheir defeat.

"However, if this challenge is ig-nored, a protest demonstration shall bestaged before the City Hall, the Gov-ernor's Mansion, the White House, theUnited Nati'0ns, and Shakey's Pizza Par-lor."
