OUR NEW TERMINAL at IDL is one step nearer completion as a 210-foot-long steel beam weighing 78 tons is positioned atop its support column by giant cranes using specially constructed slings and supports. The beam, one of the largest ever used in airport construction, is one of 32 beams that will form the ribs of the parasol roof of our Jet-Age terminal. The roof, under which passengers will board aircraft protected from the elements, will be four acres in area and stressed to withstand winds of hurricane force. Club Boosts '59 Activity Plans for the publication of a monthly newsletter and an expanded education program have been announced by the Management Club of New York, whose newly-elected officers will serve until September, 1960. At the December meeting of the Club, members voted to change the start of the Club’s year from January to September to conform with the resumption of Club activities after the summer hiatus. Thus the Club’s new Officers — President Bill Manners of Maintenance, Vice President Angelo Mileo of Division Accounting, Treasurer Bob Ingham of Division Accounting, and Secretary Jim Gilbert of SOS System — changed horses in the middle of the stream when they took over the reins of the Club early this month, but their successors in September, 1960 will start right out with a new year of Management Club activities. Members of the Board of Control elected for the year-and-a-half term are: John Henry, System Advertising; Phil Parrott, Commissary Manager; Dr. O. B. Schreuder, Medical Director; Rocky Masiello, Assistant to the Maintenance Manager; and Frank Kelleher, Publications, retiring President. The proposed Club “Newsletter,” a function of the publicity committee headed by Charlie Hervish of Engineering and John Mirabelli, Division Accounting, will be issued monthly to keep members informed about Club activities. An ambitious education program has been outlined by the education committee, of which Carl Doyle, Ground Training, is Chairman. Its goals are the establishment of a library of reference material, college-level technical and academic courses for members, visits to the plants of industries related to our own, and exhibits concerning technological improvements and new methods aifecting our operations. The Program Committee, which arranges for speakers, films and entertainment at Club meetings, promises entertaining and enlightening meetings. The Program Committee Chairman is Joe Giamelle of Engineering. Speaker at the January meeting was Admiral H. B. Miller, System Director of Public Relations, who, in a lively, down-to-earth talk, pointed out how the actions of each employee can affect the growth and income of the Company, the benefit of which reverts to all employees. Chairman of the Membership Committee is George Updike of Industrial Relations, aided by Art De Simone of GAO System. (Continued on Page 8) Fund Grows This year’s contributions to the Greater New York Fund are running nearly $2,000 ahead of last year, according to George C. Updike, Campaign Coordinator. This is heartening in view of the fact that this year’s campaign started two weeks later than last year’s. Many employees have not yet returned their campaign cards, Mr. Updike declared, but those who still wish to make a contribution may do so by sending their check to him, made payable to “Pan American—Greater New York Fund” Mr. Updike’s address is Industrial Relations, Hangar 14, IDL. At the same time that our Jet Clippers are carrying nearcapacity passenger loads across the Atlantic, they are carrying up to five tons of cargo eastbound — and still manage to shatter speed records. Flight 100 of December 11 carried nearly five tons (9,775 pounds, to be exact) of cargo and mail — and made the trip from IDL to LON in the record time of five hours and 41 minutes. During the first half of December, flight 114 carried an average of 7,819 pounds of cargo and mail from IDL to Paris on each flight, while operating with a seat factor of above 95 per cent. This is comparable to the amount a B-377 and a DC-70 together were able to carry when operating over the same route. From December 1 to December 15, Flight 100 carried a total of 85,928 pounds of cargo and mail, for an average of 7,161 pounds per trip — over half the cargo capacity of a DC-4 freighter. Heavy cargo loads were aboard all eastbound recordsetting flights. Flight 114 of December 11, carrying 7,698 pounds of cargo and mail and with 110 souls on board, set a speed record of six hours and four minutes from New York to Paris. Another flight to London carried 10,098 pounds of cargo and mail and 97 persons. But the heaviest cargo-lift to date was on Flight 100 of December 5, which carried 10,554 pounds of cargo and mail.
