CAMPBELL LIKELY TO

Portland, Or, Jan. Exchanges in
the operating department of the South

E. E. Calvin, vice.president in charge
of operating, to become president
and general manager of the Oregon

promotion for D. W. Campbell, general
superintendent of the Southern Pacific

Mr.. CALVIN will succeed W. H. Ban

was forecasted in the Oregoniau on
