Tours Goodyear - ÎPAUL MORRIS ] IDEALIZATION OF THE DECEASED In tho period immediately following following death the bereaved may tend to think about the deceased deceased continually, talk about him constantly, until his image becomes subtly transformed from real to super-real. This process process is known as IDEALIZATION, IDEALIZATION, and its end product is a false, all-positive portrait of the deceased. Unhappily, because this idolization is artificial, or at least incomplete, there may be complications. complications. Disguised as respect and admiration, idealization may be the survivor's unconscious method of paying off guilt. The higher the survivor raises the deceased up on a pedestal, the more inadequate seems the survivor survivor herself. "He was so good. I didn't deserve him. I am no good." Idealization in some form is a natural reaction to the death of a loved one and is, within bounds, a normal one. Like many aspects of the mourning process, it becomes dangerous only when exaggerated and prolonged. prolonged. MORRIS FUNERAL CHAPEL 4 Division St., Bowmanville Tel, 623-5480 Serving Durham Region Since 1881 by Geoff Simpson On Tuesday, November 29th and Wednesday, November November 30th, the students and staff of the Bowmanville High School Cooperative Education Department went on their first field trip of the year to the Goodyear plant in Bowmanville. The tour operated once in the morning morning and once in the afternoon afternoon of both days, so that the students could cover the entire entire building in small groups. By running the tour in four sections, the guides hoped to achieve a friendly, personal atmosphere. The desired effect effect was achieved and an enjoyable, enjoyable, rewarding experience experience was had by all. At the main entryway, the students were greeted by Mr. Charlie Trim, the Industrial Industrial Relations Manager for the Bowmanville plant. Mr. Trim led the group up several several large flights of stairs to a training room where the students students were shown a presentation presentation consisting of two videos. videos. The videos explained much about Goodyear and its many products. The students quickly learned that tires were not the only thing on the production production list for Goodyear Canada. Canada. Besides tires, Goodyear also manufactures industrial hose, hydraulic hose, fuel cells, air springs, automotive parts, rubber railroad crossing crossing pads, and conveyor belts to name only a few of hundreds hundreds of products. The Goodyear plant in Bowmanville specializes mainly in conveyor belts - conveyor belts that weigh up to 450 tons per section! Since 450 tons is the maximum maximum weight that can be transferred by a railway car, the belts are delivered piece by piece to the location desired desired before being put to' gether. Belts made in Bowmanville Bowmanville are sent all over the world. Many students were surprised to find that Goodyear Goodyear Bowmanville produces high tech belts for the U.S.S.R. Yes. High tech. Some of the larger belts designed and built by Goodyear are linked to a main computer system which monitors every inch of the belt using a gridlike layer of electronic sensoring QUAN'S CHRISTMAS* SALE COLOUR TV'S • VCR'S • MICROWAVE OVENS • APPLIANCES L j§| | TOSHIBA 1 COLOUR TV § 14" 289.00 1 20" 389.00 | 20" Remote 469.00 1 50 Month Parts & Labour yj 21" FLAT SCREEN TV • MTS Stereo • Remote $579°o 40 Month Parts & Labour flagBgggM 32 " TOSHIBA FST ■ 'iï " . • 37 Key Random Remote • External Speaker Jacks MTS STEREO SKSSBiSiM 21 " TOSHIBA I litW pi AT RPRFFN ™ L./A 1 OGnCtli In home service ! iSSm f: 29 " ©PHILIPS 5 j • Remote TV | • Flat Screen 1 ] • MTS Stereo • Random Remote 4 $849 00 J 40 Month Parts & Labour 26 "^PHILIPS COLOUR TV • MTS Stereo • On Screen Display •Remote Control $679oo TOSHIBA 4 HEAD VCR • On Screen Display • Toshiba TVA/CR Remote • 4 Event/14 Day Timer $499oo ^PHILIPS Or QUASAR VCR • 2 Head • Remote • On Screen Program •4 event, 4 day timer • Picture Search $39900 MID-SIZE MICRO • Clock • 1.0 cu. ft. • 720 watts • Jet Defrost $299 00 Months Parts & Labour QUASAR VCR 4 HEAD VHS Hm i • On Screen Program • 4 Event/1 month timer $689 00 0 HITACHI MTS STEREO VCR • 2 Hoad Sill *3 Speed - j 'Cable Ready i $559oo TOSHIBA DIGITAL HI FI VCR . • . • ' «On Screen Programming | SB • MTS *36 Function Remote -- (■ ill l rnrrn i n_. g •tmuaa'tcvi/ wuay i I $899oo j 0HITACHI DIGITAL REMOTE VCR •4Hoad rtælfllli • 4 EVT/14 day bmer S •Random Remote tAOQOO TOSHIBA ON-SCREEN VCR •3 Colour Display • 4 EVT/14 day timer •Random Remote $49900 "h H TOSHIBA • Big Screen • MTS Stereo • Super VHS jack $4199°° QUASAR MICRO-CONVENTION Top o!tho Lino • Auto Cook • Micro Convention • Probo • Auto Dolrosl $709oo TOSHIBA Full Size Micro • 1.6 cu. ft. •Touch $329°° Compact Microwave TOSHIBA •.6cu.fl •Touch Pod • Defrost* Clock / $179oo 50 Months Parts & Labour "Over the Range" MICRO Quasar Moffat I GENERAL ELECTRIC $699 00 GENERAL ELECTRIC 1.0 cu. ft. ■ Auto Defrost • Auto (Dock • Temp Cook $349oo GENERAL ELECTRIC Auto Defrost 1.4 cu. ft Moat Probe Autoweight Cook Weight Defrost Auto Cook $369°° QUAN TV & APPLIANCES 4421 Hwy. #7 E.

Next to the Goodyear plant in Akron, Ohio, the Bowmanville plant, founded in 1910, is the oldest in the world. Akron is the rubber producing capital of the world, so it makes sense that Goodyear, as well as Uniroy- Firestone and others, al, would build their first plants there. The students soon learned of the vast career opportunities opportunities available to Goodyear workers - workers who earn excellent wages. Says Mr. Charlie Trim: "Goodyear paycheques aren't made of rubber." The tour group saw immediately immediately that the workers seemed to be a cheerful group of people, excitçd about their work. Maybe this is because of the fact that Goodyear is on the leading edge of technology technology and its workers are often tne first to discover something. something. For example, it was a Goodyear worker who first thought of putting air in tires . rather than having them made of solid rubber. Goodyear Goodyear has always been at the top and they hope to remain there. By educating students about how the company works, Goodyear hopes to. draw even more attention to itself from young people who desire to be successful. After the tour, everyone assembled back inside the conference room and we took our leave. It was certainly certainly an interesting day for all concerned and theCo-op Department looks forward to more field trips like it in the future.
