J 4th YEAR PACIFIC-ALASKA DIVISION

PACIFIC-ALASKA DIVISION

17th YEAR PAA HAS FLOWN IN ALASKA
Voi. 5, No. 9 PUBLISHED BY THE EMPLOYES OF PAN AMERICAN WORLD AIRWAYS May 19, 1949
San Francisco Ball Team Maintains .500 Average
PAA Tossers Still Rate Good Chance To Cop League Crown
Pan American’s San Francisco softball team was playing .500 ball after four games in the San Mateo Recreation League. Still rated one of the top outfits in the league, the PAA nine has dropped a pair of heartbreakers.
On their first trip out the flyers wound up on the short end of an 8 to 3 game with the Peninsula Social Club. Tedrick and Bowling shared the mound duties in this contest, giving up 10 hits between them-Ted Morrison wielded the big stick for the losers.
A basehit barrage brought a 13 to 2 win in the second game against the Eimacs. Emmett Costello and Jim Thornton hit round trippers to pace the team along with Hank En-gledinger, who garnered four base knocks.
Pan American again tasted victory in the third game, as Ted Bowling tossed a two-hitter in the face of the San Bruno A. C., winning 6 to 2. Hank Engledinger and John Flannagen hit for the circuit.
Moesteri’s Sport Shop gave PAA a set back in the fourth contest, 3 to 0. Ray Tedrick allowed only three hits, but you can’t win ball games without runs. Inability to hit in the pinch cost PAA the game.
Crowds have been disappointing so far. Pan American has a really top class outfit, and a little more screaming from the stands is all they need to come through in these close contests.
Plan now to see the boys in action. It’s a guaranteed good evening!
The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission has approved a plan for erection throughout San Francisco of signs directing motorists to the San Francisco Airport. The state will place similar signs on state highways within the city.

WINS NEW HONOR
Dr. Rodney R. Beard, head of the PAD’s Medical Department, was honored this month by the Western Association of Industrial Physicians and Surgeons when they elected him to be their president for the next year. The purpose of this organization is to improve the practice of medicine in industry. This is done by the interchange of scientific ideas and technical methods. Dr. Beard had previously served as secretary of the group for the past two years.
The world’s fastest airplane, the Air Force North American F-86 Sabre, will be manufactured in Canada for the RCAF under a licensing agreement.
A few months ago Stewardess Lorraine du Bois was riding home from San Francisco, and shortly after her Greyhound bus departed the terminal she noticed that the man opposite her had apparently passed out. The driver at first assumed the fellow had “had one too many,” but Lorraine was certain that the man had not been drinking.
Along the way she managed to procure some cold cloths which she applied and generally did what she could to make the man more comfortable. By the time the bus reached Burlingame, the gentleman had still not revived; so Lorraine slipped a note in his pocket before she got off.
When the bus arrived at Palo Alto, the driver assisted the gentle-

man from the bus and also told him of the efforts of “some young lady” to help him on the ride down.
It was at that time that the driver found out that the man had been given opiates which he was taking to lessen the pain followuig two operations, necessary because of wounds received while fighting on Okinawa. It was also then that the gentleman reached in his pocket and read Lorraine’s note: “Hope you’re feeling better when you get to Palo Alto, and if you ever fly, please fly Pan American.’’
And that’s why—a couple of weeks ago—that same gentleman, who had just received an opportunity to enter business in Australia, walked up and bought his ticket on PAA.
