"Me and the old gent." "The old gent and me" form the only two-man labor-management war production drive committee in the United States. Jake Sparling Pulley Manufacturing Company at Bay City, Michigan, and his helper, seventy-nine-year-old ex-lumberjack Percy Fogelsonger, were cited by Donald Nelson and named to head the list of 1,300 plants enrolled in the War Production Drive. They work fifteen hours each day, seven days a week, and produced 18,000 steel flanges for war equipment in eighteen months
