Mcngcl Mdca Million Doon in 1950 Charlcr E. Kcndall Continuing

"A million is a lot of anything." On JanuatY l, 1950, when the Plywood Divisiorr of The Mengel Company set out to build 1,000,000 of its famous Mengel Flush Doors in one year, management was well aware that it was thinking in terms of over 176,000; 000 feet of vene'ers, 12,750,000 board feet of lum' ber, and even of 3,500,000 pounds of water-resistant glues. Despite the magnitude of the job, however, the million-door goal was set.

Less than twelve months later, the "millionth in 1950" was produced, and the vear ended with a substantial margin to spare.

The photo above shows A. L. Entwistle, Mengel vice president (center) and R. Fay Kulmer, door department sales manager (right), receiving the millionth Mengel door produced during 1950, from Thomas Bopp, plywood division production manager (left).

The average modern house uses froul 7,500 to board feet of lumber.
