Santa Claus attended the Christmas party for Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company women employees in 1950. The 28 women and their male supervisor gather around a Christmas tree in the company's lounge. Each of the women wears a corsage. Pacific Telephone and Telegraph provided an employee benefit plan that provided continuing paychecks during illness after being with the company two years and a pension plan. At this time the plan had been in effect 38 years. Ordered by Mrs. McKinley. (TNT, 1/23/1951, p.9)
