Bradley r. Thompson, who
had served as president and
sales manager since the COM
pany's founding in 1945, was
named to the new post of chair
man of the board.
Thompson pointed out that by
relinquiShing certain duties to

will be free to devote more
time to several new products
recently developed at the com
pany'S plant at Desert Hot
Springs, Calf. These new min
iaturized versions of the com.
pany's products were especially
designed for use in aircraft and
guided missiles. .
At the annual meeting oi
shareholders last night, Thomp.
son announced that 1856 sales
of Assembly Products were ST..

in 1854" Thompson commented
"Our sales that year were ap.
proximately $500, 900, up 40 per
cent from 1858. Each year since
then our sales have increased
at least 40 per cent. In 1857
we expect sales to reach al
least So, 900 ,OO0."

that the highly encouraging
increase in earnings was achiev,
ed during year when the

electronicS companies failed to
keep pace with increases in

Thompson, Saint-Amour and
Pugsley, they include r. E.
Britt, Matthew A. Mathieson,
and James ]. Murley, Cleveland
attorney who is also company
Secretary-treasurer.
Saint-Amour, a native of CleVe-

The new president joined AS
Sembly Products in 1913, when
the company occupied several
rooms on the second floor of
store building in Chagrin

soon put in charge Of a meter
assembly line. Before long he
was production superintendent.
Saint-Amour was named vice
president in charge of engineer
ing four years ago and was
elected a director two years
later.
An important factor in his
rapid rise was his work in per-
fecting various electrical and
mechanical details of the con-
tact meter-relay. This is a type
of control instrument first de-
veloped to a high level of re-
liability by Assembly Products
Meter-relayS now account for
approximately half the COM
