When my grandfather settled in Conway, PA he worked for the railroad on a wreck crew. Then he went to work for the American Bridge Co. in Ambridge, PA(really imaginative name). Three of his four sons also worked there. One was killed in a fall from an overhead crane. The term hunky was used in the area where I was raised to refer to anyone of southeastern European descent (Hungarian, Slavic, Bohemian, Croatian even Italian sometimes. Never for Germans). It was so common as not to even be offensive. Ray All OUTGOING mail from this address has been scanned PRIOR to sending, by Norton AV--2000
