Show Sisters Win 'Real Thing' Allow Workers to Join Association, Official Urges Bountiful Council $1,000 By RON KNOWLTON By LYNDIA GRAHAM Review Staff ' BOUNTIFUL Bountiful city should change its present policy and allow all city employees an opportunity to join the Utah Public Employees Association, the executive director of the UPEA told the City Council during council meeting Nov. 11. Clark Puffer said the citys present policy does not allow anyone directing another person to join. Also, where an employees position makes it inappropriate to join, the city recommends against joining. Whos to judge the appropriateness or inappropriateness of ones position, he asked. Puffer said elected officials, department heads and supervisors have been excluded by the city from membership in the past. But the organization, which he said is not a union, is open to all city, state and county employees and does not exclude management. He said that even the states governor and attorney general are members and most department heads in state government are members. Out of 165 Bountiful city employees, 71 are members at present. Mayor Elmer Barlow said that even if department heads were allowed to join, he doubted many Raviaw Correspondent LAYTON The real thing to Jana and Sally Steed is the check for $1,000 they deposited to their savings accounts last week.

Around Halloween the girls decided to have a few friends in for a party, according to Jana and they bought a few six packs of the soft drink. During the party they opened some of the cans and saved the pull tabs which had various words printed on them. .They just tossed them into a pile on the counter, said the girls mother. Everybody joked about it but nobody really thought much about winning. All of the pop wasnt opened that night and some time during the next couple of days as the cans were opened and the tops added to the pile it was noticed that they were getting a good mix of the words needed to win. We knew that real' was the hardest one to get, said Jana. Mrs. Steed described the exciting moment when they realized that they really had a chance of winning. The girls were just looking through the little pile of tabs, she said. We had just been tossing them in and no one had paid much attention to them for a while so when n.

We didnt have a tab with thing on it so we bought another six pack and got that one because it was a fairly common one. Ben Day, a representative of the Coca Cola Bottling Company in Ogden said he got a call from the girls father early the next morning. We get a lot of calls that are phony but this time we were sure we had a winner, he said. We were really thrilled for them.

He said the citys present policy is a violation of Utahs law and if the city did not change the policy, the UPEA may be placed in the situation of having to take depositions from city employees that could later be used in court. Council member Bob Linnell said he thought it was ludicrous for the governor to be a member. Hes not an employee by any stretch of the imagination," he said, noting that the governors salary and benefits are set by law. It doesnt even make sense to me that management should be a part of a bargaining team, he said. He said he would resist any attempts to change the citys policy. Management should function separately from other employees, he added. Puffer said the council had blinders on if it only saw the UPEA as a bargaining agent. He said the association has many services and benefits that employees can use and that the association does not just function as a bargaining agent. The council referred the matter to its attorney, Layne Forbes, for further study. Barlow also told Puffer he resented allegations by the organization to the press that city officials are dealing underhandedly with employees.
