Last Week's Quiz: The Battle
of the Overpass involved thugs hired by the Ford Motor Co. beating up union
organizers in Dearborn, Michigan in 1937 (not 1932, as it said in last week’s
quiz; thanks to Lynda J. DeLoach, an archivist at the George Meany Memorial
Archives, for the catch. We also mis-spelled Loudon County, VA; our apologies
for the errors). Congrats to Don Walsh of the NALC in Alexandria, VA, this
week's quiz (and CD) winner!
