<DIV><FONT face=Arial>It's hard to imagine that Irv Ohlsson and Harry Rice were
involved in the Company at this time, if it even still existed at it's original
location (Emery and Grande Vista in Los Angeles.) During the war, my Dad
worked with Irv Ohlsson at North American Aviation at Inglewood, Calif. (Mines
Field.) Nice guy, Dad said. Years later, I met Harry Rice, just a
few weeks before he died. Unfortunately, he and Ohlsson had a fallling
out, with a lot of bad feelings. Happens, I guess.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Here's one for everybody.<BR>I just got a call from my wife at
work. She had one of the plant employees in her office.<BR>They asked me
if I had ever heard of an O&R engine. I have my Dad's engines from
the <BR>1950's and a couple are Ohlsson & Rice. I figured I had this
question nailed right?<BR>Wrong!<BR>Turns out it's some kind of power tool
motor. The guy wanted Paula to bring it home to see<BR>what I could find
out. A quick search revealed that they did in fact make chainsaw, pump
motors, etc.<BR>Anyone else ever heard of these?<BR>JLK <BR>
