Van Nuys, Calif., Mar. 28—
Here at the Metropolitan airport
where a world’s record for speed
with a loaded plane was broken
several days ago by a Bach tri­
motored cabin ship fueled with
Richfield gasoline and lubricated
with Richlube oil, thousands
have visited within the last week

plane. For this is the powerful
and fast product of America’s
Pacific west which, piloted by
Pat Fleming, snatched an inter­
national record for 100 kilome­
ters away from France on the
morning of March 26.
In addition to the big white
Bach bird being on display, Pilot
Fleming is also in the spotlight.
Every visitor wants to see and
to congratulate this lad who set
the new record. But Pat Flem­
ing is a modest creature, and
refuses personal credit, prefer­
ring to pass it to his plane and
the fuel and oil he used.

Everybody has a certain amount of civic pride—that sort of pride which helps make a village a town, and a town a metropol
itan city.
The growth of any community is dependent upon the support given its citizens. If you fail in your cooperation the town either
stands still or retrogrades.
If you uphold the town by sustaining it wholeheartedly you help ourself and the community. The theme of this advertise­
ment is: “HELP YOUR CITY; BUY AT HOME!”
Divide your dollars among your merchants and others who have the interests of the populace at heart. Help them and they
will help you to greater values—for increased volume means decreased costs.
The town needs your support and you need the support of the town. Let’s get together and share our prosperity.
