(Ray) Willey of Bountiful. -- MR.- WILLEY, shop foreman, bid goodbye to a'l his fellow employees and his many fnendrat Davis High School on Friday, Apr. 29 as he retired from his job He said he plans to drop by now and then to chat with all of them. Mr. Willey started at the bus shop in 1954. At that time there were only three' men working in the shop, Glen Bryson, the late Orval (Bus) Morton and himself. Mr. Bryson was supervisor of transportation at that time. THERE were 27 buses and three maintenance trucks. They now have 81 buses, 65 of them are regular route buses, 190 pieces of equipment which includes buses, tractors, trucks, lawn mowers and etc with four mechanics working. At the time he started, .there were no spare buses All the buses had to be kept in running condition. There was not such thing as eight hour shifts and a 40 hour week They just worked as long as they were needed to repair the buses and keep them on the road. Sometimes it was way into the night before they would return to their homes. HE RECALLS in those days a bus driver would have to drain the water from the bus at night during the winter J months and refill the bus in the morning. If a bus got stuck or quit running, the "driver would pull it with a tractor. They pow have a maintenance crew they send gmnnp (HUlfflsB (23 stGEtSB1 'fe neon it. 013 flit 'ljjigrai out if the bus driver has problems with his vehicle. All the driver has to do is call in at the office, if an emergency should arise. The long hour shifts have changed. Now when the whistle blows they pick up their hats and go home. MR.
