Griebeler Quits DFPA for Hqrbor r

W. L. (Bill) Griebeler, Palo Alto, Calif, field promotion representative for the Douglas Fir Plywood Association since 1950, resigned March 1 to accept an executive position with Harbor Plywood Corporation, Aberdeen, Washington, where he will work from Harbor's general of fices.

H. W. Van Natta, director of sales, says that Harbor's expanded sales activities, principally of Harborite, the resin-impregnated overlay boat hull panel which is featured in recent national advertising, would probably require all of Griebeler's attention for the foreseeable future. As assistant sales manager, he will have complete charge of its further development and sales expansion through sales promotion representatives and distributors.
