Russ -
And I'll bet you heard that story in one of Donny's favorite hangouts (Lake &
Indian Trail in Aurora)! "Goon Belly", as he was affectionately known, was
Local Chairman of the BLF&E (fireman/hostler's union prior to becoming the
UTU-E in 1968) after Jerry $hoemaker (Sr.) was thrown out as LC. The reason
for
$hoe's departure was that he surrendered a "trunk full" of valid time claims of
many firemen, for payment of his own claims. Hansen inherited the job and
the no longer "good", Trunk Full of timeslips, worth a "fortune". Hansen was
quite a character and fun to be around. Too bad he died before taking the
pension.
