Top Speakers Will Address LASC Convention

Members and guests who attend the 45th annual meeting and trade show of California will be enlightened and entertained by a number of speakers who are authorities in their field.

Dr. Gunther Klaus, Professor, School od Business Admir{istration, UCLA, and staff economist for the Purex Corporation, will speak on "The Role of Business Management in Future Small Business."

Various panel discussions will also be featured- during the three-day pro- gram. Of these probably the one to draw the most interest will be that .which will take up the question, "'Who 'is going to sell the new building materials that are being developed?"

Don Comstock, Western Pine Association. will moderate a "Lumber Grading Pack Course."

Many years ag'o a certain member of the U. S. Senate was an enthusiastic fisherman. He was so robust in his reports of his fishing, that his friends got to doubting him. So one of them went with him on a fishing trip. He found tha! the guide's scales seemed to prove the stories. It just so happened that the guide's wife had just given birth to a son, and the guide invited the fisherman to his cabin to see the child. One of the gentlemen asked what the baby weighed, so, the guide brought out the fish scales, and put the baby on the scales. He weighed ninety-six pounds.
