PER CURIAM:
This case is controlled by Commercial Lighting Products, Inc. v. United States District Court (9th Cir. 1976), 537 F.2d 1078.
The contacts with the state to which the district court transferred the action were no more substantial than those in Commercial Lighting Products, Inc., supra. Here, only one of the California residents ever visited Minnesota. Aside from letters and telephone calls, the remaining connection is an averment in the complaint, as yet unsubstantiated, that a conspiracy existed to restrain trade in both states.
We vacate the transfer order and direct that the case proceed in the Central District of California.
