However, just this afternoon George came to my office to see me. He said that he had been in Lawrence Saturday but did not locate you at that time. I had been advised by our Engineering Department here that he was already enroute to Judkins, Texas, but the facts are that he is now on his way there. George tells me thet he has definitely decided to go to K. U. and is very much enthused about it. I made him acquainted with several of the K. U. people here, par- ticularly with Fred Pralle, who just started work today. He seems to be a very likely looking boy. I advised him as to the procedure he should follow to preserve any senior- ity rights he has with the Company.

ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT E-221-58 Dr. F. ©. Alien, Director of Physical Education, University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas. Dear Doc: This morning, upon receipt of your letter regarding George Darrow, I did some checking up to find out something more about his work with the Company. I find that he has been on duty for only a little over a year, having started originally with the Production Department at Oklahoma City, subsequently be- ing transferred to the Construction Department there. His job in Kansas recently was a result of his being "loaned" to Standish Pipe Line Company, our crude oil subsidiary, to work for ir. E. V. Kile, Superintendent, while Kile's regular employees were taking their vacations. 1 find that Darrow, in the past few days, has been returned to the Construction Department as a result of the completion of Standish Pipe Line's vacation schedule and he apparently is now en route to a construction job on a polymeriza- tion plant being built at Judkins, West Texas, near the Southeast. corner of New Mexico. From the above, it is obvious that he has been shifted about eonsiderably and it is rather a surprise that he has been able to weather the storm in the face of the release of approxi- mately 1500 employees since last July, most of whom naturally were employees of short past service record. You have asked what the Company's policy is as to an enm- ployee keeping his seniority when he goes to school. The group in which he is working covers such points under the provisions of a collective bargaining contract which the Company has with this group. Considered with seniority, however, is the ability of the employee which sometimes accounts for the employee's progress not necessarily being correlated directly with seniority provisions. In Darrow's case, it would be necessary for him to handle his plans with his direct supervisors in the Construction Depart- ment. I note thet he had intended talking to Kile. The work in oo the Construction Department has violent ups and downs and it is practically impossible for them to make any commitments as to guaranteeing the employee a job upon his return to the de- partment after an absence of several months. In practically every instance the employee group would have moved to another location. , In some of the operating departments, where the employee is training himself for a special technical service such as petro- leum engineer, research, etc., a tentative arrangement is made with the employee so that he works during the summer within a department and if everything proves out satisfactorily he is employed as an apprentice engineer upon graduation. Unfortunately, when an employee is working in the field forces, which are all covered by collective bargaining contracts, the management does not have much leeway in giving assurance that the employee may re-enter service as the provisions of the contract have to apply at that time. However, it would seem from Darrow's ability to keep on during the past few months that he would not be running too great a risk if he were to obtain a leave of absence from his department. At the most, he has only a year's seniority built up so the only gamble would be on whether or not there was any work going on at the time of his return. If I can find anything more about Darrow, 1 will be on the look-out to do so but trust that the above information may enable you to discuss with him more clearly the questions which he has presented to you.
