    ARGUS EYESArgus Eyes is published for the

    employees, of Argus Incorporatedand their families.

    It is intended to be a means offriendly communication betweenthem, and to provide a reliablesource of information concerning thecompany's business.

    Beverly Bullis of the Personnel de-partment makes sure that news isgathered and that pictures are ob-tained and arranged in readablefashion for publication about the10th of each month.

    Sam Schneider and Gerry Daven-port will furnish the pictures, unlessthey are to be made with a pen orpencil, in which case Marie Barbierand Ed Palmer are called upon.

    Charles A. Barker, "Jimmy" to all,will be Art Director and Art Consul-tant. The profile will be done byHarry Rookes.

    COVER PICTURESam Schneider and Jimmy Barker

    made an extended photographic tour lastyear, taking many beautiful pictures.The cover picture is one of these, takenby Sam Schneider with an Argoflex.

    "Know Your Filters"Many of you probably noticed the

    blanks for the Argus Filter Contest onthe show case in the hall of Plant I. Thecontest is bringing out much interest, asindicated by an article published in theJuly issue of U.S. Camera entitled"Know Your Filters." This article isprefaced by the Editors Note as fol-lows:

    "EDITOR'S NOTE : It seems that some-where along the line, photographerseverywhere have been given the impres-sion that niters are used only "to getsome clouds in the sky." This is but aminor accomplishment of niters. Thereare many, many uses of the coloredglass and gelatin disks, and this articleseeks to drive home the point that nitersshould be used more intelligently and formore specific reasons than to get clouds.The facts are presented here in simplestterms so that you will be able to easilyunderstand the whys and wherefores ofthis important phase of photo tech-nique."

    The article following this note ex-plains clearly the use of colored niters.

    "Know Your Filters" in July issue ofU.S. Camera.

    Optical DesignWe would like to introduce you to our

    new Optical computer. She is VerjeanO'Mara, who comes from Jackson. Wealso have Shirley Carpenter in our de-partment. She is a transfer from theprojector line.

    Vacation NoticeVacation is July 23 to August 9, 1948.

    The Argus Eyes staff will be on vacation,too, so it has been decided to skip theAugust issue of Argus Eyes and publishthe September issue as a vacation num-ber. Pictures and news items of vacationtrips and experiences will be of primeimportance.

    Don't forget the Recreation Club'sfish contest—pictures might show youreligibility, if you've eaten the fish. Sohave your camera along and help makethe September issue an outstanding va-cation paper.

    In place of the paper, we will distrib-ute a booklet entitled "1948 ElectionYear Helps." Since this is a generalelection year in which a President,many Senate members, and an entireHouse of Representatives are to beelected, it is important to refresh ourmemories regarding our method of elec-tion. This booklet is full of useful in-formation.

    Argus Rembrandt sSummer is officially here. How do we

    know? The Paint Shop had their annualpicnic, and that is always a sure sign.It was a pot-luck supper this time withthe women furnishing the food, and themen supplying the beverages. I thinkthe men were quite surprised to findthat their co-workers are pretty goodcooks. It rained all evening, but luckilywe held our spree at Fritz Park wherethere is a shelter, and the steady drizzledid not prevent us from putting on alittle skit. This was a mock wedding,with Ethel as the bride, Louie thegroom, Sally K. the flower girl, LeonaS.» the preacher, and Katherine thebride's mother. The costumes were veryoriginal and very funny.

    We all extend our deepest sympathy toDelia B. over the passing of her father.

    Anyone wanting advice on bulding,contact George H. He has been build-ing his house long enough to knowwhat it is all about.

    We all miss Rudy Janci who wastransferred back to Plant II. A lot ofour fun left with Rudy.

    Doc, Al, and Alma have been trans-ferred to Dept. 10. We will miss them.

    Inspector in Plant I. for over six years—but has been with the company, shesays, at least since 1931, during the pioneer radio days. Was born in Ann Arborand lives at 1719 Calvin Road. Has two sons—one married—and a daughteraged 21. One son spent three years overseas, and was stationed at the air base inLancaster, England. Is a keen football fan, and when questioned about hobbiesreveals that the entire family packs a mean pair of roller skates. Becomes lyrical,however, about cooking methods, strange recipies and so on, and would like toown a farm in the future, where she can try out some of her ideas.

    If Argus, Incorporated moved to a

    new location, we would notify you.

    It is just as important for you to notify

    us if you change your residence.

    Hi, Daddy

    Maureen Place welcomes Roger likethis every night. Don't you envy him?

    Sales SlipsGood Day Mr. and Mrs. Argus and

    all the little cameras at sea( three).Front Page News

    At the Republican Convention DougMacPherson was there but the delegatesdidn't recognize him as a man who canreally give orders. Bill Armstrong andJack Pelton were making the importantdecisions in a smoked filled room withtelephones jangling wildly. Dick Cut-ting was in the press box madly scrib-bling the story for "Argus Eyes".

    Sportshe department is baseball batty these

    days, with Jackie N. rooting for hubbyand Wilmot cheering for her son—Deland Elaine are official score keepers.At the Indianapolis races we saw Bon-nie's name on the program, she wasracing with her car. The tire-changingcrew consisted of Pat Yek and IreneSchneider.—The mechanic was NancyD.—Well known personalities seen wereElizabeth, Jackie P., Jean, Dorothy M.and Gerry.—Doris Strite was busycounting the punches at the Louis-Wal-cott fight.—Herb Hall recently return-ed from the grand opening of the yacht-ing season at Sandusky. It was interest-ing to note that in spite of Herb beingaboard with his shoes on, the good ship"Ellie" crossed the line 1st.

    SocietyWe sadly say good-bye to Miss Lun-

    dahl who leaves Argus on August 1st,after eleven years of faithful service tothe company. She will move to EastLansing, where literary endeavors will

    This Is Pam

    receive her complete attention. Ourwishes for much success go along.—There are too many good-byes to saythis time, with Joy going to Detroit,Agnes leaving, and Janet heading forCalifornia. Wedding Bells ring for JoanReilly on July 24th, but she's going tostick with Argus anyway.

    Sales Department welcomed their newdebutantes, who are Miss Parrish, Nan-cy Townsend, Barbara Chatters,Mary McNamara, Georgie Drevdahland Marie Dickerman. Percy Stillerwas welcomed back after a year at theUniversity.

    Dorothy Bates recently banished herhusband to Chelsea, thereby being ableto give much more of her time to win-dow entertainment and concentration onother arduous duties.

    Evelyn has had a busy time workingwith visiting addressograph experts fromDetroit. They acclaim her quite an ex-pert herself.

    Margaret, Lee. Mary B., and Earlynehave been mapping trips to Denver,Rogers City, Atlantic City and KansasCity. It looks as if the Argus Salesmenare going to get a little competition.

    Baby Smith

    Service ScoopsThe proper thing to occur in the mer-

    ry month of June is, of course, a wed-ding. Two of our members of the Ser-vice Department announced their in-tentions. Pretty Miss Merriem Russelland lucky Mr. Ralph Merrell becameMr. and Mrs. on June 26th at the Meth-odist Church. The wedding was a fam-ily affair. After the ceremony the youngcouple took a trip to, of all places, Ni-agara Falls. Best wishes to you.

    Donna Swain just got back from hertwo week's vacation, looking bright andrested. Last year she and her husbandmade a two week automobile trip toCalifornia, flying low up there and back.This year they wanted to do somethingdifferent, so they stayed at home.

    There are several new faces in thedepartment. Welcome to our ranks, TomRentes, John Rigan, and Audrey Horn.

    Toolroom NewsIt will be useless to look for any

    brilliant witticisms and repartee in thefollowing news. It seems that at timesthings just sort of drift along; however,since last heard from there have beenseveral changes and additions to thetoolroom, and that should be reported.

    First of all there are several newpeople working here among us. EricRose and Virgil Boyd are in the grind-ing room; on the bench we have BillSveska and John Desmond.

    There have been several people whohave been transferred to the toolroomin Chelsea. These include Carl Bates,Harry Bates, Rube Koch, WilliamGlover, Jim Fraser, Marv Wilson, andKermit Gleason.

    As most of the die work has beentaken over by the Chelsea Plant thegeneral type of work done here haschanged complexion considerably. Thework pattern is now focused predom-inately on model work and special as-sembly tools, jigs, and fixtures alongwith gages and cutting tools.

    The healthy youngster above isAlan Douglas Smith, born April 13.Bob, his pop, took this picture withan Argus C3.

    Optical AssemblyThe new system of timekeeping has

    brought Virginia Susnjer back—andBarbara (Smith) Helfrich is back withus. Hello, girls!

    Ma Green's latest story is a doozeyand it goes like this. It seems two men. . . . CENSORED . . . . CENSORED.(Personnel).

    Did you know that we handle atleast 89,000 pieces of glass a month inO. A.?

    Helen (Fraser) Stricklen and BerthaJedele left in June. Helen started hereas a part time employee during theSummer of 1941, and then went back toschool. She must have liked it here, asshe came back and has been with usever since. Bertha, though, was allthrough school when she started, butshe didn't seem to need a trial period,as she stayed with us, too. The reasonsfor leaving, as shown on the personnelrecords are, Helen: "To have a baby,"and Bertha: "To be a lady of leisure."Argus was lucky to have both of them,and we hope they stop in once in awhile. We know we want to see Helen'sbaby and hear about Bertha's trip.

    The day Helen and Bertha left wetook some color movies with Berthanew camera, right in the department,and Esther was telling Red that theyturned out swell. So: we're going to gethold of them, and in combination withGirvan's projector we'll have a showone of these days.

    Did you know that Betty Robinsonhandles over 159,000 individual partseach month? Is that the high?

    They had a blessed event at the Bour-delais' mansion during June—or shouldwe say blessed events? Edna's dog hadpups. She brags about that dog, and wassaying the other day that she (the dog,that is) doesn't even have fleas. That,she explained, is because "She doesn'tmix with any other dogs." Come now,Edna, there must be at least one otherdog around!

    We are moving the benches in O.A. sothat Gert Haines will have room tospread her arms when she and Fuzzyget back from their fishing vacationHolding your arms out won't be enoughGert, we have to have photographicproof. Taken with an Argus camera, oras one girl in O.A. calls it, "My Arguskodak."

    Did you know that there is enoughlight in O.A. to take a hand held snap-shot? With your C3 and medium speedplus-x film the exposure is two secondsat £4.

    As this is written Mary Wingrove isoff on a vacation, too. We hear that sheand the Mayor are jitterbugging at allthe night spots in Northern Michigan.

    Watch the King-Seeley stock go up.They just hired an ex-O.A., LeonaWard. Her husband, Athol Ward,(rhymes with path) is at the ChelseaArgus now.

    Ellen Bentz, also an ex-O.A., wasgiven a surprise shower June 25th. Ifit's twins, Ellen—we duplicate.

    One more ex-O.A., Betty Hetchler,(the last of the old maids) is a happygal these days. Looks like she's got oneon the hook.

    Personnel PersonalsWhen Bev Bullis is away it leaves

    a great gap in our ranks, out of all pro-portion to the size of the little girl her-self. Bev had an emergency appendec-tomy and returned to work Monday the28th of June. This explains the loudcheers that were heard on that day.

    Betty Steffy usually reports on Mon-day mornings with various bits of evi-dence pointing to a gay week-end. LastMonday, in addition to another layer ofsunburn, she produced two handsomeyoung men, who were her and George'shouse guests. We enjoyed meetingGeorge Roney and Max Weston at lunchthat day, and hope they will come a-;ain soon.

    Roy begins his vacation the week ofIndependence Day. He will spend twoweeks at his cottage in Lakeland, fish-ing, gardening, and minding the grand-babies.

    Vi Tyler spent another week with us,replacing Frances Watterworth, whosemother was ill. (It must be almost apleasure to be ill in Frances' family,with such wonderful care available).

    Mr. Reid's farm is a great success.Peonies and strawberries are the currentfeature, with other exciting events book-ed right through until frost.

    Mrs. Radford must have felt a par-donable pride when her third and young-est child graduated from Michigan thisJune. (Her son-in-law received his de-gree in Law at the same time.) It willbe a couple of years before Georgie andCarol Lee start nursery school, a littlevacation for Mrs. R., after which shecan start all over again following aca-demic careers.

    Becky MatsonHonored

    We think the remarkable thing aboutthe Advertising Department is the in-genuity of its personnel. When facedwith the unpleasant prospect of losingJecky Matson to the Deep South, a

    well-organized plan of propaganda wasput into effect which attempted to dis-courage such a move. Almost everydayBecky was briefed on the disadvantages

    of the South Country especially of Birm-ngham, Ala. . . . which was reputed to)e teeming with little four legged an-mals and coated with mildew. A shortweek before her departure, the Plan wasstill in effect but making little headway.Becky was busily packing and smilinglygnoring us. Before a dinner party hon-oring Becky and her husband Bob—The Plotters - - Mac McCoy, SamSchneider, Ed Drury, Jimmy Barker,Edythe Keig, and Sally Fors, wrappedlittle gifts of powerful cleansing agentsand disinfectants sufficient for the evilsof the South. The party was a wonder-tul success with dinner at the BowerHouse and an attractive (and serious)gift of silver, which .(Jdiglited thesouthern bound Matsons.

    Around The In-ProcessStock Room

    Elmer Kalmbach has transferredfrom Expediting to the Machine Shop.Bet he will miss the exercise of thosetrips between the Stock Room, E Line,Paint Shop, etc. Gene Gehringer istaking over his job.

    Florence Esslinger Frisbie certainlysurprised us one Monday morning. Shewas married to Milton Frisbie on May29th. Congratulations, Florence. Hopeyou like living on the farm.

    John Shattuck recently invested in aspeed boat. He named it in honor of hiswife "The Betty Jane". How about aride soon, John?

    Gen and Joe Wright are eagerly a-waiting their trip to California. Wereally envy you kids. Have fun whileyou are gone!

    Edgar Fowler had a very busy weekback in June. One son graduated fromhigh school and another son from juniorhigh.

    Mortimer The Mouse

    Isn't she adorable? Pam, and Earl inthe opposite corner of the page, arethe children of George Navarre ofthe Machine Shop.

    M.S.

    Mort took an extended leave of absence:We tho't he left Argus to get married,But we see that's not so. He's back,Poking at my typewriter. I found thisNote this morning.

    Ad LibbingYou probably think you have heard

    of the Real McCoy—but don't be mis-led. The REAL McCoy just arrivedat the Mac McCoy residence and when"she" gets a little bored with snoozingall day, we'll have a picture for our col-umn.

    People in this department are excitedabout the series of lectures in Photog-raphy which are scheduled for July 16th.Mac McCoy, Jimmy Barker, and SamSchneider will turn Professor and tellus what most of us have been wantingto know—about the essentials of pho-tography.

    These discussions will be held afterfive o'clock and will include a ten min-ute question period so we will havea chance to "stump the professors" andget all our "whys and wherefores" clean-ed up. We like the idea!

    Nuts To YouIf you could have had the opportun-

    ity to listen to the following argu-ment between two grown men, youwould have wondered. Yep, wonderedif they just were not a couple of boysat heart. But still, are there not manybig men all over the world that are justboys? Just a minute boy, let us get outof politics and on with the story.

    It seems as though A was telling B,'Ah your nuts," and B said to A, "Oh

    you're nuts too." After about one hour

    Mother and Daughter

    of this A opened up on B with quite aninteresting story.

    It seems over in B's country theywere holding court. The defending lawy-er did not have much of a chance, so hethought he'd have a better chance ofwinning the case by talking for a longtime. After talking for over two hoursand still going strong, something hap-pened. Yes sir, something quite extra-ordinary.

    There had been a boy sitting on thesill of an open window, listening to theproceedings. He listened so long to themonotone of the lawyer that he wentto sleep and fell out of the window tothe ground below. Just a minute bubno wise cracks, the story isn't finishedyet. The window being a few stories upthe boy broke a leg, whereupon thelawyer was hauled into court, foundguilty and fined. The charge being thathe was responsible for putting the boyto sleep, thus causing the injury.

    "Now," said A, "isn't that nuts? Theyfine a guy for something he actually hadnothing to do with. It's nuts, just plainnuts."

    "Well now," said B, "I'll top thatone". Now over in A's country a fellowwas brought into court on a very serioucharge. The old blackguard stole some-thing and it wasn't small either, infact, it was a steam roller. He had noout because the cops caught him haulingit down the street. Not only that butthe guy admitted his guilt. Did theyfine him? Did they put him in jail? Nothey didn't, they turned him loose.

    Now if that isn't nuts, what is? Hereis a, guy that broke a law and nothingwas done about it, and all because of avery weak alibi which happened to be,"Judge, I just borrowed the steam rollerto press my pants."

    "Nuts, just plain nuts," said B.Whereupon both A and B started to

    laugh, patted each other on the back,shook hands and went their way, eachmurmuring, "It sure is a nutty world."

    Well known mother and daughter on the Camera Line are Lucy Hawksand Virginia Jacques. Lucy has been with Argus three years, while Vir-ginia celebrated her second year with us last January.

    SPORTSHIGHLIGHTS

    The Industrial-F|rat;ernal SoftballLeague got under way with three teamsout in front the first night of play.However, the course of play since thenhas brought out the leaders in their re-spective places. Argus now leads theeague with four wins and one defeat.Under the very able pitching of JoeDobransky, the team has showed theorm necessary to win the league this

    year. After suffering their first defeatat the hands of St. Paul A. C, the Argusteam is now trying hard to hold theirhalf game lead on King-Seeley.Team Won Lost Pet.Argus 4 i 800King-Seeley . . . . 3 1 750Stags 2 2 500Eagles 2 2 500Northside 1 1 500St. Paul 1 2 333Engineers 1 3 250Bell Telephone 1 3 250

    The Argus Fun and Fumble team hashad some pretty tough going. Theyhave had three losses and no wins inthree starts. However, they show a lotof promise of coming up among thewinners before the season closes. Theone thing these teams need and get theleast of, is good support from those whocan't participate!

    The employees of the various com-panies about Ann Arbor got togetherthis spring and organized a golf league,much to the happiness of many a link-man desiring the keen competition thatgolf can afford. It has proved so far avery close competitive league, with littlevariation between the first team and thelast in the league. The Argus team hasagain proved its ability to be a contend-er in city sports by winning 3 and losing1 game by a very small margin. Theteam was organized and captained un-der the very able leadership of RobertsBorusch. The team consists of RobertsBorusch, Harold Peterson, GlenndonHilge,Maurice Howe, Norman Tweed,Fred Mercer, and George Conn.
