- Akron, on the site of the present
Goodrich factories, was part Of the nucleus Of
the industry itself as it now exists. At that time
few persons ever dreamed what the industry
could become. Scarcely any of the fields in
which rubber products play SO important part
had come into being. Electricity was undevel-

automobile and motor truck were unborn. The
combination of circumstances which brought
about the greatest industrial era of the world
was virtually unseen.
Yet the history of the company shows that
even in those early days DR.. Goodrich and his

which comprises the entire Goodrich organiza-

1t requires people to make city, and the spirit
of those people is the soul of that city. The per-
sonnel of Goodrich is one that has family feel
ing-a pride in its work-a determination to
maintain the integrity of its creed and which
extends that integrity to the service of the prod

Wherevera Goodrich product is used, it carries

Boxfnr fans had their nrst glimpse
OF Midget Smith in action last night
and the second Terry McGovern" liv-
ed up to advance notices by shading
Joe Burman in ten siam-b bang rounds

Three stanzas went TO Burman ana
the other two were fought on even

The New York Midget made big
hit with the fans here, who had rather
looked for Burman to explode Smith
reputation, which was based largely
on his knockout of Jack Sharkey, well
known 10 these parts.
