The case of the typing paper
that erased without a trace-^-Q^
EATON’S CORRASABLE BOND
Typewriter Pap er
It’s a cinch to "rub out”
typing errors and leave no
"clues”, when you use
Eaton’s Corrasable Bond
Paper. Never smears, never
smudges—because
Corrasable’s like-magic
surface ... erases without a
trace! (A flick of the wrist
and a pencil eraser puts
things right!) This fine
quality bond paper gives a
handsome appearance to all
your work. It’s a perfect
crime not to use it!
Erasable Corrasable is available in all the weights y
might require —from onionskin to heavy bond. In co
venient 100-sheet packets and 500-sheet ream boxes.

Eaton name.

HIDDEN WEALTH

mystery as to what happened to
$37,418 in checks made out to the
State by 536 auto license applicants
two years ago has been solved.
Some of the applicants com
plained that the checks had never
cleared their banks. They were
found stuffed in a cardboard box

CAMPUS-TO-CAREER CASE HISTORY
’S’ '
Pete McCullough (center) discusses requirements for new
telephone equipment with Traffic and Plant Managers.
Success story—with a moral to it
Robert G. “Pete” McCullough got his
Bachelor of Arts degree from Columbia
in June, 1953. In September, he took
a j oh selling for a manufacturing firm.
He was hurriedly trained—and, after
23,000 miles on the road, decided he
wasn’t fully using his capabilities.
He resigned and contacted his college
Placement Office. Interviews with a
host of firms followed. Pete chose the
New York Telephone Company.
That was April, 1954. He spent the
next 13 months training—getting basic
experience as installer, repairman,
frameman, staff assistant, etc. He was
then appointed Service Foreman.
In January, 1957, he moved over to
the business side of the company. In
May, 1957, he became a supervisor. In
January, 1958, he managed a business
office serving 25,000 customers, with 42
people reporting to him.
In October, 1958, Pete was promoted
again—to District Commercial Mana
ger. Reporting to him now are two
business office managers, nine super
visors and 54 service representatives
and clerical personnel. There are 64,000
customers in the territory he heads up.
That’s Pete’s story—up to now. Fu
ture promotions depend on him. Op
portunities are practically unlimited in
the Bell Telephone Companies for Pete
and many young men like him.
Moral: The most capable of men
need good training and honest pro
motion opportunities to move ahead as
they should. Shop carefully for your
career. And be sure to talk to the Bell
interviewer when he visits your campus.
Pete is active in civic affairs. Here, as chairman of a Boy Scout fund drive, he confers with
R. A. McCaffrey, Branch Manager for the First Natioi ! City Bank of New York.
