solicited Fred [Frederic V. J Malek. Then he and John
Clarke went about a nationwide search of manpower for
us. They did a hell of a job. John Clarke probably
talked to five hundred men; of those we probably talked
to a hundred; of those we probably picked thirty-five.
Some of those were some of our best advance men. The
only thing they lacked was experience. It was very

We've had four seminars this year. The last seminar I
programed to end on the first of June. After the first
of June we were finished. No more interviews, no more
talking to people.
In the meantime I hired Julie Rowe, Marsha
Griswold. We hired Julie Rowe out of Rochester, New
York. She helped in the advance office, she was a
school teacher, she did a hell of a job, came back down
here. We had steps, Curintelligible due to table

Hall. These are all men that
