A British European bloc seeks to deploy double shuttle automatic looms to lift Western European industry. Col Line & Aikman owns exclusive patent rights and offers licenses to several European textile manufacturers amid a manufacturing slowdown and skilled labor shortages.
The Jr Hi-Y club elevates loom capacity with wartime gains and lists officers for 1949 including president Louis Ama rate Jr. and treasurer Joseph Simmons. A new men's volleyball class begins with a brisk but cautious start as Columbus Day alters schedule. Officers of Jr Tri-O also announced and a movie night planned. TV remains popular with World Series, Milton Berle show draws, and fall YMCA schedule posted. Over 400 copies of the Y News mailed with Lois LeClair and C C Cirillo co editors.
After a long day the corps relaxed at the YMCA then journeyed from New York to Philadelphia. The trip included a pool swim, a movie, souvenirs, and a concert in the park as rain and storms delayed detours on the return through Connecticut and Rhode Island. Officers were nominated and the group packed up Wednesday morning before returning home with memories of the Philadelphia trip that will last.
