United Lumber Yords Joins lumber Merchqnts Assn. of Northern Cqlifornio

United Lumber Yards, which maintains heaquarters at Modesto, California, was welcomed into a full membership in the Lumber Merchants Association of Northern California on September I. Don Vopat is general manager of the large chain organization which operates 17 lumberyards one large building supply in the Central San Joaquin Valley and center at South Lake Tahoe.
