Claims He
Had Okay
Former Official
Said to Have
Approved Fund

Although Attorney Cen
eral Thomas B. Finan has
questioned the legality of a
special investments fund set
up by a Baltimore insurance
firm which covers a number of
savings and loan associations in
the State, the firms president
has revealed that the funds le-
gality was sustained by a for
mer Attorney General of Mary
land.
David F. Woods, president of
Security Financial Insurance
Corp. of Baltimore, said the So
called trust fund" was APP
proved by Attorney General c.
Ferdinand Sybert who, he said,
was acting on behalf of Mary
land State Insurance Commits
sioner F. Douglas Sears.
Nine savings and loan asso-
Citations insured with Security
Financial have been ordered to
half their investment of share
holders savings and other
money in the trust fund"
after State officials announced
they had determined such in
vestments were Illegal and i'm
proper.
Questioned about Woods de-
Tense of the fund, Commissioner
Sears said he wasn't sure
whether Sybert had approved
the funds establishment, and
that he would have to review
past records.
He stressed that the State is
questioning the right savings
and loan associations to partici,
pate in such a trust agreement
with anyone" and is not con.
filming its inquiry or disap-
proval solely to the Security Fl.
nancial fund.
According to- Woods, the in.
vestment funds legality was
approved by Sybert, Finan's
predecessor, acting in the be
half and interest" of Commits
sioner Sears. Sybert is now a
judge Of the Maryland Court
of Appeals.
He charged that Finan's cur
rent action is dramatically op.
posed to the affirmative actions

He said the agreement is

where he now has one of the larg-

Heggen prides himself in per-

other is perhaps the reason for the
rapid growth of the shop. He in

Returning from a recent bust

been appointed the franchised
dealer for the sale of Piper Air
craft for Kodiak Island and West

First of the Piper line to arrive
in Kodiak was the two-place, tri-

from several of the worlds largest
trophy manufacturers.
Celebrating the goth anniver-
sary of his arrival in Alaska, Heg-
gen unveiled what he considers the
only truly Alaskan trophy ever
produced-with real cedar totem
pole and appropriate sports figures
added. There can be little doubt
where anyone has been who has
such a trophy among his collec-
tion," Heggen stated.
Pop, as Heggen has become
best known in Anchorage, when
not talking trophies, is always glad
to talk about his son Russ, former
Navy Electronics man, now an
Electronics design engineer in
California.
"I'll always have warm spot in
my heart for the Navy who did for
my kid what l never could have
done myself" Heggen says-"giv-

education for free, and teaching
him to keep his shoes shined."

Yes, only Scot can muke this guarantee. Here
are the facts:
In private and State tests Scot GaSolines have
been proved equal to or better than nationally
advertised brands. This proof is based on
OCTANE RATTNG-the quality of a gasoline
that lets car operate at best efficiency with
out knocking. AS Scot has been the first to
point out, there is an octane rating that's Just
right for your car. And whereas most gasoline
companies offer just two or three grades of
gasoline, Scot Gasoline stations offer different
Octane grades-the widest selection available
in this area.
Scot Gasolines are produced in the worlds
most modern, scientific refineries.
Scot GaSolineS have all the known scien-
tific benefits including weather blending,
refinery freshness, as well as all the in
gradients that can be refined into today's
fine gasolines (butane, pentane, alkylate,
iSo-octane and others).
Because Scot Gasoline stations specialize in
gasoline, you can buy the finest gasoline at
lower prices-actual savings of &c to &c per
gallon.
Rather than waste space and run up costs
trying to offer "every- -once-in-a-while me-
chanical services" we will gladly recon-

mend a nearby specialist. But when 1t
comes to the finest gaSOlines and motor
oils, Scot Gasoline stations can offer big
savings and outstanding service.
Because Scot Gas stations are super sized,
with extra pumps, we can handle larger
volume of business. Our attendants can
pump more gas, thus we can offer better
gaSolines to you-at savings Of &c to &c
per gallon. ...
You pay less at every Scot Gasoline sta
ton because you pay cash. It costs money
to provide credit. We pass these savings
on to you.
S-Minute Service is the rule at Scot Gas
oline stations. It takes us less time to wait
on you and you spend less time waiting
on us.
Now, with Scot "Octane- -BIender' pumps
we save on costly multiple bulk tank Stor-
age for different octane gasolines and pass
on these savings to you. We can offer you
different Octane grades at Scots low prices.
You can choose the correct octane rating for
your cars most efficient operation from the
Octane Selector chart in all Scot stations.
Drive into your nearest Scot station and let
us prove to you, on the basis of our guarantee,
that there is no finer high Octane gasoline on
the market today
