STUDEBAKER CORP.
NAMES HARPER TO
HEAD SALES DEPT.
Announcement of Appoint.
ment is Made by Vice
President Biggs.

II. A Briggs, vice president Of the
StudebaEer corporation, has ap-
pointed Harry B. Harper TO the po-
sition Of sales manager Of that in
stitution. No more important an
nouncem ent to the public in general.
and the industry in particular, could
be made at this time. Since Mr..
Harpers retirement as the largest
distributor OF WHY'S Overland mo-
tor cars, there has been much spec
lation as TO his future plans. His
great interest in the automobile in
dustry, and its remarkable merchan-
dising possibilities. together with his
long record of repeated successes
throughout his meteoric career,
made it evident that his next step
would be one TO arouse more than
passing comment
Harry 3. Harper, as one or the
countrys most resourceful eXecu-
tives and, without doubt, one of the
keenest of automobile merchandis-
ers, has watched the phenomenal
success of Studebaker from the
standpoint OF a man who has an in
innate knowledge Of all the factors
that contribute TO the popularity Of
a motor car. Mr.. Harper will take
up his new duties Nov. 7.
Sees Big Job Ahead.
Mr.. Harper brings to his new po-
sltion a wealth Of practical knowl-
edge gained in nearly 20 years of
selling experience. He reliquished
the advertising managership Of Bow
ser & Co., FIT Wayne. Ind, in 1905,
to become advertising manager for
the Ford Motor Co. In 1907 he was
made Ford's first foreign manager.
His work with the Ford company
attracted the attention of John n.
WHY'S and, in 1911, Mr.. Harper
opened up the foreign department
for the Willys-Overland Co. His
rise here was rapid, due TO his
ability to do just the thing neces-
sary to accomplish results quickly
and thoroughly, and a year later he
was made assistant to the sales man
ager. In 1914 he succeeded George
Bennett, as sales manager, and in
1915, '16 and IT was the WHY'S
| Overland Co.'S general sales man
ager. Mr.. Harper was president of
the National Automobile Dealers as
ISOLATION in 1920 and vice-president
Of the Philadelphia Auto Trade as
ISOLATION the following year His eff
forts in behalf of these two organi-
cations, brought him constantly into
national prominence.
Il fully realize the Importance OF
my association with Studebaker. "
said Mr.. Harper in speaking of Mr..
| Bigg's announcement. II have
watched Studebaker mighty close
| for the past few years and I must
admit that have been astounded az
their amazing progress. This most
assuredly is a Studebaker year and
my big job is to keep the ball roll
/ ing. Every year must be a Stude-
baker year and will be because of
I Studebaker's wonderful manufac-
turing facilities, the recognized
value of the cars it produces and the
| high caliber of its extensive dealer
organization. Studebaker has reach
| the pinnacle in the automobile in
| dustry and is pitted against the
field. In value of sales Studebaker
continues to lead the industry with
