DALLAS, Tex June 2S.-The
Southwestern Advertising company.
Of Dallas, a national advertising
agency, today announced the chang
ing Of its name, effective July l, TO
"Tracy-Locke-Dawson, Inc"

the concern, and came to Dallas in
1920 TO take charge Of the office here,
az Ad4 DEEn C%k4N4ArAtu III 1914.
The headquarters office was moved
to Dallas in 1923, this now being the
only point at which an office is main
tanned.
While the agency serves the bulk
OF its accounts in Texas and Okla
homa, clients are being served at
present which are located in Michi-
gan, Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee.
Alabama, and Georgia. A total of
e clients are being served at pres
ent, and the agency maintains its
original policy of accepting no new
accounts until the organization IS in
position to render the type of indi-
vidual service given al accounts.
which has been responsible for its
growth from a small service agency.
to a national organization. with a
volume Of more than Sl,O00,0 900 Of
business annually. During a single
month, the company made 1857 indi-
vidual space purchases from $50 pub
