C. L. Anderson Generol Monoger Of long-Bell Vernonio Division

C. L. "Connie" Anderson was advanced November 1 to the position of general manager of the Vernonia division of The Long-Bell Lumber ComPany.

Anderson was born in 1894 in Kansas City, Mo. In 1923 he brought his family west with the intention of working for the Oregon-American Lumber Company; however, as that concern had not yet begun operations, he found employment with the Inman-Poulsen Lumber Company, Portland, Oregon, where he first became acquainted with lumber. He went to Vernonia in 1924, when the Oregon-American Lumber Cornpany began operations.

During the depression years Anderson was employed by the Copeland Lumber Company at its yards in Portland, McMinnville, and Eugene, Oregon. When Oregon-American was reorganized as the Oregon-American Lumber Corporation and resumed operations in 1936, he returned to Vernonia and held the position of mill superintendent until May 7947, when he was promoted to general manager upon the retirement of F. R. Olin from the presidency and the succession of Judd Greenman to that office. Later that same year, Anderson was appointed vice-president and general manager and became a member of the board of directors.

When I-ong-Bell purchased the Oregon-American property in May 1953, Anderson was made assistant general mon?ger; He has held this position until his promotion to general manager, succeeding Judd Greenman, who retired November 1.
