Recreation: A Bi# Job

From Cricket to Piano Tuning Youa l know the old say-

ing a b u t "all work and no play." Well. Aramco realxzes that play--recrea- tlon, t au sea better word-- i s essential to its opera- t~ons . F s t p t h r e e facilities testify to thim and provide a wide varx~ty of recreational cutlets. Top this with the extra organization and at- tention willtng a d abla volunteer leaders brmg to the programming. and the results go a long way to- ward s tbfyingas diversi- fied a group of employeee u i apt to be foundmywhere.

Seven recreation super- visors, along with their staffs. a r e responsible for operating SIX swimming pools. six theatera, nine libraries, nine recreation centers, three bowling alleys, three golf courses and seven athletac fields.

Think of a supervisor as a combination swimming pool-theater-bowlingalley- golfcourse manager with a dash of librarian and re- creation leader thrown in, and you have some idea of the compledtiesof the job. U al l they had to do was handle the facilities, the task wouldbe nearly a full time orp, what with the maintenance,the ordering, the training and the plain old operational mansgxng tbat mustbe carried on day by day. But that isn't all.

The supervisor carr ies much of the initiative in arranging for team sports and special events. For example, take softball:

leagues have to heorganized every year for senior staff employees, a s well a s intermrdiatesmd generals. Often thia i s not difficult. thanks to plenty of wlunteer hands;but makingthe rule*. lining the fields. providing the cqwpment.adjusting the lights, relocating the bleachers, dressing up the activity, and scurrying for umpires. call for plenty of advanced planning, and the supervisors a r e it.

Some of their work falls into r e p l a r schedule patterns. hut a great deal comes under "spur of the moment" heading. Recent- ly, with four hours notice. a U.S.O. show was sand- wiched into the movie schadule--a typical example of the unexpected that continuallypopainto the k p of the supervisor.

Or, for other incidental, yet important, time-con- s w i n g duties to enliven the daily routine of the super- visor, he may be faced to- day with staging an Mer- district banquet. seeing that an outgoing conducted tour has guides and water. emtimating the cricket equipment needs for 1955. arranging for a concert right down to getting the piano turned, ordering the holiday decorations for next Chrimtmas, appeasing several groups deairing the mame facility a t the same time. straightening out the kids in the theater, arhitrat- ing a soccer decision protest. staging a gardcn show.
