Breast Cancer Treatable If Detected Early
Breast cancer kills more women each year than any other cancer. It is the most prevalent cause of death for women 40–44 years old and typically strikes women over thirty five.
Breast cancer is only treatable if found in time, with the best results dependent on early detection.
Self examination of the breast on a monthly basis is an important aid in finding most breast cancers before they spread too far. This is an easy thing to do and your personal physician or the plant physician, Dr. Bakunin, will show you how to do it. Dr. Bakunin is at the Chemical Plant Hospital from 8 AM to 10:30 AM on Monday through Friday.
It is important to have a complete medical check up at least once a year and more frequently for those over 35 and with a family history of breast cancer.

SAFETY:
Our last Serious Injury occurred January 13, 1975. Our last Lost Time accident was February 21, 1975 and still holding up.
As part of our new Foremen Safety Program, some of the topics that will be reviewed with Operators will be the handling of hazardous raw materials, safety aspects of S.O.P’s and the safe operation of equipment. With our excellent progress of reducing accidents, we should easily meet the Corporate goal of a 20% reduction over last year.
Safety Slogan for the Summer!
Practice safety at home, work and play.
PRODUCTION
Business seems to be improving with increased activity in most departments.
Recently the 7 Building Crew met with the Chemical Production Division Chairman and his Stewards to discuss the impact of the proposed Reclaim shutdown. The anticipated problems confronting us were discussed in detail. See your Steward for details.
Due to the present economic situation, we continue to run with very tight inventories. This makes it imperative that we meet all schedules with high quality production.
101 Building produced small quantities of potential new business products—Blowing Agents 744, 746 and 747.
Recently Rocco Magnanimo was lamenting his frequent job reassignments and composed the following verse:
Eagles and Roosters
I feel like an eagle, soaring from place to place.
I long to be a rooster and king in my own little place.
But, forever I must roam, therefore, I call all of the Chemical my home.
Styles for Summer
The Consumer Products Division foot stylists have designed a new Malibu Thong casual shoe for summer wear that is comfortable, refreshing, and stylish. The Malibu is only one of the many high-fashioned Grasshoppers that can be purchased at the Uniroyal Footwear Employee Salesroom or at the Oxford store.
