Hold Retirement Party For Arthur Ted' Baumgartner Friends and business associates of Arthur \“Ted”) Baumgartner, Standard oil agent in the Milford area for the past 28 years, paid tribute to his years of company service at a retirement party at a North Webster restaurant Thursday evening. Mr. Baumgartner was the recipient of three pieces of luggage, presented by sales representatives John Slater of Warsaw. Field representative Eugene W. Hall of Syracuse was master of ceremonies of a program which included testimonial remarks by friends and associates of Mr. Baumgartner. Mr. Hall read several letters of congratulations which were sent to him by company officials who could not be present, and addressed to the years of service of the honored guest. Mr. Baumgartner spoke at some length concerning the years with the Standard Oil Company, remarking, “I was told when I took this job that two years with Standard Oil was the same as a liberal education. With my years I should probably have a Ph.D.” He recognized the assistance he has been given by his two daughters-in-law, Mrs. Roger Baumgartner and Mrs. Steven Baumgartner, in handling the details of his job since the passing of his wife in July. His sons, Roger and Steven, were also present as were other members of his family.
