This Week’s Cover
- Once there was a business executive who, instead of taking a business trip in a baseball direction during World Series week, loyally stuck to his desk and listened to the murmur of a radio concealed in a drawer. Other officials dropped in on company matters, until finally fourteen men were holding a conference. The meeting broke up after a baseball fellow hit a home run, and the conferees, forgetting their where-abouts, impulsively uttered a shocking, great cheer. The moral is that widespread hypocrisy can only be dispelled by company presidents’ declaring World Series week a national holiday. While waiting for this, we wonder why Artists Donahoe’s electrical-minded lads don’t rig up a television set on that pole.
