Goodyear to Extend Policy of Making Employes Partners For the last ten years the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company has followed a poliey of making “young partners” of such of its employes as have shown special ability and rendered highly effi- clent service, by making them common stockholders in the company. Goodyear has 235 of these young partners at the present time—hranch managers, depart- ment hegds, factory foremen and others who ' have distinguished themselves by svecial service. The result of this policy has been so matisfactory that the company now pro- poses to extend it. The organisation has grown mightily in the last few years, Just o the business has grown, and more’ candidates ‘for ‘‘young partner- ship” are under consideration. To that end a stockholders' meeting will be beld June 1 to authorize an in- crease in the company's common stock, as all the present authorized common is outstanding and none is available for the proposed distribution. In the past Goodyear has disposed of ts k to employes on the basis of five-year contracts, simply setting the stock aside in the beneficlary’s name and permitting dividends, cash and stock, to accumulate to the end of ‘the period, when settlement is made. The employe really purchases the stock at par, though most of the payments automatically take care of themselves. Students Oppose The Gambling and Love Eigking Tdea Cards, love-making and gambling were scored by the University of Omaha Young Men's Christian assoclation when that body met Friday afternoon to dis- cuss legitimate sports. Dancing and thea- ter-going was criticised, though the mem- bers seemed about equally divided over the former. Checkers, chess, base ball, foot ball, hikes and fishing were among the sports endorsed as suitable for a person having the true Christian spirit. The meeting was one of the regular weekly affairs and was presided over by Dean Halsey. No definite arrangements have as yet been made for the sending of delegates to the Rocky Mountain Student: ference at Estes Park, June 12-21, but it 1s expected several will be selected to represent the local school LISTER BATHS SOON TO BE !
