Richfield Oil Co. In Annual Meet Little Change Made In the List Of Officers With the exception of the election of W. E. Dunlap to fill a vacancy on the Board of Directors and the creation of the position of chairman of the Board, the annual meeting of the Richfield Oil Company of California, held at the company's offices in Los Angeles March 21, was purely routine. At a meeting of directors following the annual meeting, James A. Talbot THE TOWN DOCTOR (The Doctor of Towns) SAYS Selling a Town is Like Selling Anything Else If you are a thinking resident of the place where you live, you desire that the world get sold on Anhelm. Before you can get sold on it yourself, and before you can sell it to others to anywhere near maximum degree, there is a certain amount of study and analysis necessary. That is, it is necessary if known ethics of good business are adhered to. Sad but true, however, this is altogether too seldom done in things civic. The first question to be answered is, "Is there a market—a demand for it?" The demand for good, live, wide-awake communities greatly exceeds the supply. Every day people are asking, "Where is there a good town in which to locate"—for an yone of a thousand reasons. Twenty per cent of your motor traffic is in the market for, or can be sold a new location. Men at the heads of large industrial concerns, people in all walks of life, in fact, everyone is looking for good towns—good communities. Few people realize the extent to which industry and business go to find good towns. There are in Chicago alone dozens of corporations, concerns and firms who have special departments to do nothing else but find out if a community is suitable for the purpose they have in mind. With some it is for locatio not a branch factory, employing hundreds; others for a distributing point, requiring twelve to fifty; others for place of residence for the representative and family who handles the company business in that area, and there are others who looking into the future, just want to know. And this is your opportunity IF your community is in position to take advantage of it. The second question is: "Is Anaheim marketable—suitable for sale, as is?" To make it marketable be eliminated—the most flashed out of the map when sold, it will stay. What business man doesn't know what he concern that places a vice in the hands of the lie that, when sold, does every thinking man spells disaster; but in very knowledge, they ect to "go over" with the public without elimination that are known to pro-tion, create loss of inthe customer. The first bug in the most communities is the obvious familiarity." You street and looks at hut that repel other people see them. You go to office and there are the abhor, but you fall to because you are so faint At the same time, at you, and on every side are "acres of diamonds been mined." It is a "so close to the picture" see the frame." Look around you—up position of a stranger things that would use community as others about it—talk to you it and then do something those things that rephind and push" those vite. Copyright, 1929.

Fuller, vice-president and general manager, elected president, to succeed Mr. Talbot. All other officers were re-elected. In acceptin gthe office Mr. Talbot stated: "This change in title means absolutely no change in the operating conditions of your company. Mr. Fuller has been the chief operating head and his taking the place of president is a recognition of his most effective leadership in operations. "My acceptance of the chairmanship of the board, carrying with it the chairmanships of the finance committee and the executive committee, will place me in the position of much more efficiently administering the business and financial affairs of your company." Mr. Talbot also stated: "Contrary to reports that have been current that my activities in the interests of Richfield are to be lessened, I wish to most emphatically state that I shall continue to devote to the affairs of the While the above collection may resemble instruments warfare, they are very modern and deal sure death to a mileage. These puncturing objects, all taken from tire over a period of a few months by E. C. Grow, manager of Auto Supply Company store in Los Angeles. Everythi blades so railroad snakes is included in the collection merged under the name of Richfield, Mr. Fuller became vice-president, director and general manager, which position he continued to hold with the organization of the present Richfield Oil Company of California in August, 1926. As a marketer, Mr. Fuller is considered one of the most able men in the petroleum business and his elevation to the presidency is a well deserved reward for his great part in the growth of his company. The directors also declared the regular quarterly dividend of $1.75 on the preferred stock, payable May 1, stock of record April 5. If California's hurry Pogolotti, who has done highs and 24.3 in this should put on a faster event with Charle C., and in the latter Payne of the Trojan never run as fast man, but he is improv eason. E. Payne ran the low sticks in the club meet, but finish ber in 25 flat last Sallott's consistency giv in this event. Captain Charley Bo company no less time than during the past years of our most successful growth." "That you may again appreciate how rapidly Richfield continues to grow I am reminding you that in the interests of efficiency we recently elected three additional vice-presidents n charge of refined oil sales, manufacturing and our fuel and asphalt division, and the change made today in our elected personnel is only a continuation of an established policy of broadening the effectiveness of the Richfield organization." Mr. Fuller, the newly elected president, originally entered the Richfield picture as a salesman for the Los Angeles Refining Company early in 1913, leaving the latter part of that year to accept a position with the National Petroleum Company. When the Richfield Oil Company was consolidated with the Los Angeles Refining Company and the Kellogg Oil Company, Mr. Fuller became a director and general manager of the merged organization. Richfield was purely a marketing organization and later when it was deemed advisable to protect itself from a production standpoint an agreement was reached with the United Oil Company, with Mr. Fuller, president of the Richfield Oil Company and vice-president of the United Oil Company, and James A. Talbot, president of the United and vice-president of the Richfield. In 1923, when the two companies were U. S. C. Meet Bear Trackmen Having disposed of their first two practice meet opponents with easy victories, University of Southern California's trackmen will hold their first Pacific Coast Conference dual meet of the year on Saturday, when they face Coach Walter Christie's "dark horse" team from California. Southern California's impressive win over Occidental College last Saturday by a 108 to 28 score—103-37 when the hammer throw which was not held is conceded to Oxy—establishes the Trojans as the favorites, since the Californians have not appeared unusually dangerous in their performances to date. The Bears, however, are a real "dark horse," team this year, as their opponent sknow little about their strength and suspect that the veteran Christie is planning a big surprise that he has been holding back in the way of star performers until the meet on Saturday. Southern California's millers and hurdlers are certain of more than enough competition in the Bear meet, and the distance and barrier events should bring out some excellent races. Harry Carter, who has done 4 mins. 23 secs., in the four-lap race, and Ned Cherry, who has done 4.25, are expected to finish one-two for California unless Vic Fitsmaurice or Bob Swede, the Trojan millers, can cut six or eight seconds from their best previous marks. Having run their first for the season up to versity of Southern trackmen will hold w be their final dual with Inglewood high afternoon at Bovard babes will not disband after Friday, however have the West Coast April 27, and the Operations at the Los May 4, on their schoo VN DOCTOR (Doctor of Towns) SAYS Like Selling Anything Else To make it marketable the bugs must be eliminated—the monkey wrenches flashed out of the machinery, so that when sold, it will stay sold. What business man is there that doesn't know what happens to any concern that places a product or service in the hands of the American public that, when sold, doesn't stay sold? Every thinking man knows that it spells disaster; but in the face of that very knowledge, they expect their town to "go over" with the same American public, without eliminating those things that are known to provoke dissatisfaction, create loss of interest, and unsell the customer. The first bug in the machinery of most communities is that of contemptuous familiarity." You walk down the street and looks at hundreds of things that repel other people, but you do not see them. You go to your store or office and there are things that others abhor, but you fail to recognize them because you are so familiar with them. At the same time, above you, below you, and on every side of you, there are "acres of diamonds that have never been mined." It is a matter of being "so close to the picture that you can't see the frame." Look yourself in the position of a stranger and look for the things that would ussell you. See your community as others see it—think about it—talk to your neighbor about it and then do something to eliminate those things that repel, and "get behind and push" those things that invite.

Migratory Birds To Have Refuge Congress Passes Bill Providing Sanctuary for Them Relief for migratory birds, and more particularly wild ducks, looms with the passage of the Andresen-Norbeck game refuge bill which passed both houses of Congress and was signed by President Coolidge. Senator Norbeck of South Dakota sponsored the bill and was ably assisted in the house by Congressman Andresen of the Agricultural Committee. The bill provides for the purchase or lease of lands suitable for involate sanctuaries for migratory birds, and the securing of these lands will be handled through the Secretary of Agriculture, upon recommendation of a committee to consist of the secretary of commerce, the secretary of the interior and two senators to be named by the president of the senate and two congressmen named by the speaker of the house. The ranking officer of the fish and game commission in the states affected will become a member of the committee. The funds appropriated are distributed over a period of years as follows: $75,000 for 1930; $200,000 for 1931; $600,000 for 1932; $1,000,000 each year for seven years, and $200,000 annually thereafter. The areas secured will be purely refugees for birds. They will not be shooting grounds, and the money is appropriated and will not be collected in licenses as was at one time recommended. The bill met with practically no opposition, due, no doubt, to the intensive campaign carried on by conservationists throughout the United States who relize the serious problem faced in the conservation and protection of the migratory wild fowl.

In Sycamore Grove Park, Los Angeles, Go as early as possible and spend the day with friends. There will be county registers and headquarters so all may find the old friends and neighbors, even with ten thousand present. The brief program will open about two o'clock, songs, short talks. All the tourists and visitors from the old home state will be made welcome and may meet thousands of old-time friends. Coffee will be served free to all who buy the souvenir badges. Each one who learns of this is asked to pass the word along. The premier of Quebec found a bomb in his office. Maybe one of the boys from Chicago who was up in Quebec after a truck load, accidentally dropped the bomb from his pocket when he called to pay his respects. WHEREAS, said Savings, Loan and Building Association of Anaheim has declared the whole of the unpaid principal sum of said note, and interest thereon as aforesaid, and all other sums secured by said Deed of Trust now due and payable, and has demanded that said Trustee shall sell the premises granted by said Deed of Trust to accomplish the objects of the trusts therein expressed; and WHEREAS, said Savings, Loan and Building Association of Anaheim did, on December 26th, 1928, record in the office of the County Recorder of Orange county, California, a notice of the above mentioned breach and default and notice of its election to cause the property described in said Deed of Trust to be sold by said Orange County Title Company, in accordance with the provisions of said Deed of Trust to If California's hurdle star, Alfonso Pogolottl, who has done 15 flat in the highs and 24.3 in the lows, runs, he should put on a fast battle in the former event with Charley Webber of S.C., and in the latter race with Ernie Payne of the Trojans. Webber has never run as fast as the California man, but he is improvin giteadly this season. E. Payne ran 24.2 in winning the low sticks in the recent Olympic club meet, but finished second to Webber in 25 flat last Saturday, and Pogolottl's consistency gives him the edge in this event. Captain Charley Borah is expected to Captain Charley Borah is expected to take both sprints with Milt Maurer and Dick Wehner of the Trojans also conceded chances of beating the California entries. The 880 looks like a good race between David Chase of the Berkeley institution and Bryce Schurr of the Trojans, as both have shaded two minutes. Ed Gloege, the Southern California star performer in the half-mile for two years, is still on the shelf with illness and may not be able to run against the Bears. With close races expected in hurdles, middle distances and distances, the Trojan-Bear festivities Saturday will probably attract the biggest dual meet crowd thus far this season in Southern California. The contest is slated to start with the mile run at 2:30 p.m., and if the meet is run off at the customary Coliseum speed, it will probably end with the relay before 4 o'clock. Having run their total of victories for the season up to seven, the University of Southern California fresh trackmen will hold what will probably be their final dual meet of the year with Inglewood high school Friday afternoon at Bovard field. The Trobabes will not disband for the season after Friday, however, as they still have the West Coast relays at Fresno, April 27, and the Open A. A. U. Championships at the Los Angeles Coliseum May 4, on their schedule. It may be true, as Shakespeare said, that all the world is a stage, but you can't get by with stage money.
