Vol. 3 No. 11

The Fisk Tire Company's Social and Athletic Association events and happenings for the week of May 29, 1919.

A four page newspaper describing the events related to the social groups and athletic clubs of the Fisk Tire Company for the week of May 29, 1919. Park night happens every Friday night and the fun is just getting started. This week's page one announces the Old-Timer's Baseball Game as the newest feature to be added to Park Night. Other events include Building 6-A taking on the Tube Room in a track meet and there will be wrestling and boxing bouts on featured Fridays. In other page one news, it was the pitching performance of Frank Maguire, of Building 27, that wowed the spectators watching the interfactory league game at the first Park Night. Page two takes all the jumps from page one. Page three has stories on the Factory League standings, William Whitlock leaving the plant for an extended vacation before deciding what to do next, the Red Tops winning two more games and the crew team making some progress. There is also a photograph of the Fisker eight-seat boat on the Connecticut River. Page four touts the gift-giving efforts of the Fisk employees, proclaims the efforts of the Cutting Room and the latest safety contest, mentions the learning efforts of the beginning dancers and mocks the driving ability Frank Whittaker and his new Ford. It seems he miscalculated the speed on a turn and mistook the brake for the gas leaving a roadside farmstand in a shambles.
