GP Announces Woodleof Timber Purchqse And Negotiqtions for R.oyol Confsiner
Two large California concerns, one of the Woodleaf Timber Corporation, with mills at Woodleaf and Marysville and headquarters at Sacramento, were purchased by Georgia-Pacific last month.
Woodleaf Timber Corp. sold its sawmill at \A'oodleaf, California, its remanufacturing plant at Marysville, and timber-cutting rights to 14,000 acres of timber land to Feather River Pine Mills Co., a wholly orvned subsidiary of Georgia-Pacific Corp. Total sale price, including property in the town of \Aloodleaf, was indicated to be more thatt $5 million.
T. D. Bennett, vice-president of Woodleaf, a privately held concern, declined to give the sale price. However, he noted that the northern California timber marrufacturing facilities at Mroodleaf and Pearsor.r Station "alone are valued at more than $2 million."
Bennett also said the sale could lead to otl-rer timber lancl purchases in the area and a total investment by GeorgiaPacific in the neighborhood of $15 million.
At the same time, Harold R. Freeman, president of the Royal Container Company, San Francisco, saicl an exchange of stock agreement with Georgia-Pacific is "imminent." IIe said negotiations have been "going on for several months," but that "nothing has yet been concluded."
Royal Cortainer is a privately owned company, Freemarr said, with "total annual sales of $12 million." The company makes corrugated shipping cases in San Francisco and at a recently opened Los Angeles plant, and has a paper manufacturing operation in Santa Clara, California. Freeman declined to give details of the stock transaction, but said, if it is approved, Royal Container will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Georgia-Pacific Corporation.
Alling Reports the Terrible 2O
The 4l7th Terrible Twenty tournament was held at San Gabriel Country Club, Friday, February 17, 1961, under the guidance of George Gartz. We had a large turnout, with nine guests, and it was a most enjoyable party, from the brunch thru the gin rummy.
Bob Pierce shot the second best golf score he ever made, 76-ll-65, (he once shot a 74) to win the lower bracket hands down. Bauer, as customary, stole the horse race profits, betting on Pierce. Syd Alling won the higher bracket 90-14-76, due to penalty strokes suffered by Bauer, Huck, and Pruessing. The prizes this morrth were Janzen sweaters. and thev are beautiful !
Wade Peror.rg iras been nominated for membership and approved by the Board of Directors and vvill be a caudidate at our next tournament. FIe is a general contractor, "R. J. Datlm," ancl was introduced by Bob Field and Virg Oliver, and a member of Lakesicle.
Our next tournament is at Annandale Fridav. March 17. Better make it for sure-we have beautifui new greerl score cards, illustrated-that may help to keep your mind off of our tlvo temporary god-awful greens.
