Lma Convention

(Continued lrom Page 9) came Monday and Tuesday when it actually cleared and it was rumored that outgoing prexy Homer Hayward had actually, although briefly, spotted the sun. This rumor was discounted somewhat, when someone pointed out that the Salinas dealer was a past president of the Monterey Peninsula Chamber of Commerce.

Inclement weather or not, it was everyone's conviction that the meet produced tangible benefits never before achieved. The association's strong leadership con- tinued with the seating of Art Masters of The King Lumber Company in Bakersfield as president. Les Ley of Santa Cruz Lum' ber Co. and Duane Bennett of Mead Clark Lumber Co. were named first and second vice-presidents assuring a further continuation of that leadership.

Profit Progratvt

,.. '

The o'Alliance of Profit" program began early Monday morning with dealers and suppliers meeting separately, not. to rake each other over the coals, but to do some in depth soul-searching, the goal being better cooperation-and profits-for both. Weyerhaeuser's Rick Pratt led the supplier discussion on how to better supplement LMA programs and Lyle Schafer spear' headed the retail group.

A real treat for the grouP that noon was the appearance of California Lt. Gover' nor Robert Finch who covered the Red' wood Park Issue, the objectionable secon' dary boycott bill (H.R. I00) and curuent problems facing the California housing industry in a manner that left everyone feeling that "someone up there really DOES care!"
