"Don" Wilson, one of the hardy "Knights of the Road" and ac'e trouble-shooter for the Lumber Merchants Association of Northern California, ieft his association post September 1 to join Vince Wilson at Central Lumber Company in Stockton. Don (left) leaves behind two friends of long standing, Jack Pomeroy and Claire Zimmerman, executive vice-president and the "veep's" secretary, respectively, both of LMA, who wish Don the best of success with Vince Wilson (no relation), a solid LMA member from way back.

Don Wilson originally became interested in the lumber business shortly after World War II, when he took a job as a truck-driver with the Homer T. Hayward Lumber Company in Salinas. He later became assistant manager of the Homer T. Hayward Pacific Grove branch, and then went on to become credit manager for all of the Hayward yards, with headquarters at Salinas. It was this position he left in 1951 to join Jack Pomeroy and the LMA.
