Not a pair in the array

Like the days when Bill Gheens cleaned out the Mechanics Wagon.

One of Bill's crew told me Bill could take a tire in shreds to any tire shop and get an adjustment on it.

Gheens used to keep a keen eye on Tommy Napoli, our first trumpet in the band. Tommy drove 96 Bible Wagon, and used to poke a tiny hole in the governor Bill had installed, in order to increase the allowed speed. Bill tried every day to catch him at it, but Tommy knew how to switch the gaff.
