Representation Vote Friday At Evendale Plant
A United Steelworkers union organizing drive heads to a representation election next Friday at Magna American Corp in Evendale to win bargaining rights for 262 employees. The NLRB ordered the vote, reviving a long contested union effort previously ousted in 1958. Magna workers are currently represented by the Independent Union of Weber Magna Employees. Magna was a key target of the steelworkers drive begun last fall. The piece also notes that the first nuclear reactor on a college campus was installed at North Carolina State College in Raleigh in 1953.
