1941 Sun (Baltimore) 16 Oct. 7/2 Dairy officials pointed out that the new system would eliminate ‘back trippage of drivers’ and make for ‘straight trippage’. Under the old system, most drivers made early morning deliveries and then, on collection days, repeated the routes to collect the money. The second trip will be eliminated under the daylight delivery system.
