Now when we're having more than one, we'll know where to turn. Heinie Swarthout is now with American Bank Stationery Company in beautiful downtown Burbank. Maybe we'll achieve Bud French's dream of a class meeting somewhere between L.A. and S.F. which will give us a chance to meet again with him, Herb Mandeville, Chuck Faye, and some thirty other men who call California home. Karl Rodi's law firm has combined with another and Wright, Rodi, Wright, Tolton and Van Zyl can be your counsel in Los Angeles or Beverly Hills. Another merger involves the Robert S.
