I think this is a hard one, so I'll take whatever answers I can get with much appreciation.
I'm looking for the names of men who worked at the DP. Besides the obvious- Clark, Perry, Jimmy, Ralph- who else was seen, or even just mentioned in passing?
Anyone know? I owe you a donut if you do!
Thank you!

There was Wally Sciarra (who appeared in Individual Responsibility), and Eduardo Friaz. I've often used them in stories. There was also Pete, in the first and part of the second seasons. Jimmy mentions in Metallo that Pete in Sports asked for a raise and a week later he was gone. There's three. Hope that helps.
Nan
Edit: There was also Applegate, (no first name) who appeared in All Shook Up. Definitely male.

Myerson & Burns(foreign correspondent??) from Pilot when Lois asks for a task force
If she had to move heaven and Earth, perhaps come back to haunt Perry and explain the story after they'd killed her, she would do it.

In the pilot, when Lois asks for a Task Force and Perry says she can have Kent, she asks for Myerson or Burns instead. No specifics on whether either is male or has a first name. AmyN (AnKS beat me to it!)

And there's Steve Sanchez, who also gets a pink slip in Barbarians at the Planet right after Jimmy and Jack receive theirs. Since Lex comes in later that morning and announces "no layoffs", presumably Steve kept his job after all...

Brief mentions: Applegate in "All Shook Up" (Perry suggests Cat ask his help to write her article). Jurgens and Swan in "Through a Glass, Darkly" (Perry barks orders to them). Harry in "Stop the Presses" (he is one of the reporters in the conference room when Lois is Editor-in-Chief). EDIT: Nan beat me to Applegate. Andreia

I think this is a hard one Ya think? Lois blames "Carl, in Travel" for stealing Perry's last cinnamon donut in Lucky Leon. In The Phoenix, Perry yells at someone called Langdon, wanting to know where his story is, and a male voice replies from off screen, "Right on it, Chief!". LabRat

Hi CC There was also 'Carl in Travel' whom Lois blamed for taking Perry's last cinnamon donut, as she choked down the last bite. OOPS! Hadn't read Ms. Rat's post when I wrote this. Sorry. I'll just say hi anyway. Jude

Soooo, I take it this one wasn't so hard? Holy cow!! You people are brilliant! And if I'd had any idea this was so easy and there were so many potential answers, I never would have rashly promised donuts. Thank you everyone! (Hi, Jude!) I really appreciate it. This is more and better than what I thought I would have to work with. So...yay! CC

BTW: Jurgens and Swan are nods to the Superman comic books. Curt Swan is the iconic Superman artist who drew Superman for over thirty years during the Silver Age of Comics. A nicer gentleman you'd never meet.
And Dan Jurgens, who happens to be a Minnesota resident and a friend of mine, was the primary artist on Superman during the late eighties and early nineties. He wrote and drew the infamous 'Death of Superman' issue.
