      • Warren Eugene Friel
        By Jacqueline Friel

        Warren Eugene Friel has been working since he was age 16. His first job was as a bagger in a Food Fair. After that, he was a spot welder in a place called Do All Manufacturers. His next job was as a carpenter’s assistant in Yale & Towne. After working at Yale & Towne he got a job as a mail boy at SKF Industries where he gradually made his way up to his present job as Senior Production Scheduler.

        Warren married Margaret Conway, a neighbourhood girl he had known since grade school, on August 8, 1957. He has seven children and the entire family lives in a six-room two house in N.E. Philadelphia. It is the couple’s fourth home since marriage.

        Originally they lived with his mother [Alberta Schelfhaudt], then moved into a Frankford apartment, and a row home in the Hillcreek Housing Project in Philadelphia, before moving into their present home [3615 West Crown Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19114].

        Socially Warren has been involved in such organizations as the Cub Scouts and Christ the King’s Home and School Association since marriage. He has served as Scout Leader of Cub Scout Troup 111 in Phila. for three years before becoming President of the Home and School Association for two years.

        Some interesting things he remembers from his younger days include the air raid drill that took place during the second world war. Each family had to completely darken their house to prevent any possible enemy planes from spotting them. The end of WWII was a big occasion of the time as was the Korean War when that started, though, for obviously different reasons.

        McCarthyism caused a big stir in the hearts of most people and when Eisenhower sent Marines it aroused him personally. The threat of war made the possibility of being drafted quite a reality since he was 18 years old at the time.

        A high point of that year (1956) though was when Warren bought his first car – a ’52 Plymouth.
