West end of cough syrup-warehouse building where construction of loading platform is
underway. Features will be a marquee-type roof and hinged dockboards.
Management Dinner
Scheduled June 1
Plans have been announced by G. C.
Eichhorn, General Manager, for the
fourth semi-annual management dinner meeting to be held in the Wedge-
wood Room of the King Cotton Hotel
June 1.
The Greensboro group whose jobs
involve management responsibilities
will discuss operating problems and
responsibilities. B. B. Fort, Greensboro Operations Manager, will preside.
As in previous meetings Eichhorn
and J. W. Lovatt, Assistant General
Manager, will discuss current Company operations and future plans.
This is a continuation of the series
of meetings which began in November
of 1959, and which, according to the
comments of those who have attended,
have been highly successful and beneficial.
Others attending will be J. Adelstein, J. M. Berry, W. J. Blalock, Anna
Brewer, Carl Broerman, Wayne Calloway, Joyce Cauthren, J. W. Clarida,
Julia Coker, Robert Craven, Joan
Drummond, J. Don Duerr, and O. R.
Edwards.

R. E. McCuiston, C. A. McKeel, J. W.
In line with increasing growth and
expansion of facilities at the Wendover Avenue plant a three-truck
sheltered loading platform is nearing
completion at that location.
The 32-foot loading area will accommodate three tractor trailers at one
time to speed up and simplify loading and unloading of finished stock and
packaging materials.
Under construction at the west end
of the Cough Syrup-warehouse building, the 10-foot wide platform will
feature a marquee-type roof which
will extend three feet beyond the loading dock.
In addition it will feature three
hinged dockboards which may be adjusted to any level truck bed.
Two other access doors (only one
exists at present) to the loading platform will be added in order that all
three loading zones may operate simultaneously.
A cantilever-type gate will be installed at the entrance drive, and will
be locked at night to insure the plant's
security. A buzzer at the entrance
gate will be installed to summon a
night-watchman, should any personnel
have business at the plant after it is
locked for the night.
This modernization of facilities for
handling incoming and outbound
truckload shipments represents a major
improvement which will allow for more
streamlined and efficient handling of
raw materials and finished goods.
