LEONARD C. BOLLER, Co-chairman

Los Angeles is the second largest rubber tire producing city in the United States. Consequently, no program would b e com­plete unless arrangements were made to visit one of the major plants.

Tires and tubes for passenger cars, trucks, buses, aircraft, off-the-road and farm equipment, camelback for tire recapping, rubber lining of metal pipe for the chemical industry are the principal items produced in this B. F. Goodrich Company plant.

Each year 9.6 million pounds of rayon, cotton and nylon textiles, 32 million pounds of crude and American made rubber, 12.8 million pounds of carbon black, 1,440,000 pounds of bead wire are processed into tires. The plant has a capacity for 5 3 million pounds of finished products. It consumes 256,956,000 cubic feet of gas annually and has more than 491,000 square feet of floor space.

This huge one story, half-mile long tire manufacturing plant was one of the first to use straight-line production from raw materials to finished goods. Established in May 1928, it repre­sents the first plant outside of Akron, Ohio. A current $2 million expansion program now at this plant is expected to increase tire and tube production by at least 20%.

The plant route is over a portion of the new Santa Ana Free­way and passes through some of the light manufacturing areas of Los Angeles.

The plant's crude oil processing capacity will be increased by 20,000 barrels a day to more than 125,000. Besides handling a greater volume of crude oil, the expanded facilities will increase the recovery of gasoline from a barrel of crude oil by approximately 20%.

Another important phase of the Richfield program is the development and installation of facilities to recover ethylene, basic raw material for a number of important chemicals and plastics.

Enroute will b e seen several chemical plants, including the interesting Hancock Chemical Plant, where sulfur is recovered from petroleum gases.

T w o trips are planned for Tuesday and Wednesday mornings, March 17 and IS , leaving at 8:20 A .M. and returning at 12:15 P . M . Cost: $1-35.

located at Corona, Calif., approximately 4 0 miles southeast of Los Angeles.

At this plant will be seen the production and concent ratioxa of lemon juice, the quick freezing of lemon juice, and t h e manu­facture of pectin, citric acid, and lemon oil.

As one of the longest trips scheduled, visitors tsaking this tour will enjoy much beautiful scenery and many interesting views. The route passes citrus groves, new residential and in­dustrial areas, with the San Gabriel mountains as a background.

One trip is planned for Wednesday afternoon, Marcha 18, leav­ing at 1:00 P.M. and returning at 5:55 P . M . Cost: $2 .50 .

Research Center—Union Oil L O R E N L. N E F F , Co-cliairman

This trip is through the beautiful new $8 million research center of the Union Oil Co. at Brea, Calif., 30 miles· southeast of Los Angeles. T h e research center, completed in 1951, con­sists of 12 fully-equipped buildings on a 100-acre site, and has a staff of 300. Its architecture is typical of Southern California. Visits to the various departments will include production research, fuels and lubricants research, catalysis and petrochemical re­search, process developments, and process engineearing. The route to the laboratory is through the Southern California countryside. Seen X^ill b e citrus groves, producing oiL wells, in­dustrial areas, as well as new residential subdivisions. Two trips are planned, Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons, March IT and 18, both leaving at 1:00 P .M. and returning at 5:30 E».M. Cost: $1.50.

Ion-Exchange W a t e r Softening Plant—Weymouth Memorial E U G E N E M. DISKANT, Co-chairman

Although of particular interest to the members o f tkie Division of Water, Sewage, and Sanitation Chemistry, the inspection tour of this modern filtration plant is of general interest as it employs the ion-exchange method of purifying city water. O n l y one other such plant is in operation.

This plant, located 30 miles east of Los Angeles at L a Verne, is the Weymouth Memorial Softening and Filtration FLant o f the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California.. At this plant all water delivered by pipe lines to member aireas in Los Angeles and Orange Counties is softened, fîltereu, and cKlori-nated. Present plant capacity is 200 million gallons per day with provision for doubling this capacity in the future. Vl/ater hard­ness is reduced from an average of about 310 to 125 parts per million by either the cation-exchange method or a comtbination of cation-exchange and prior partial lime softening. In -addition to the administration building and headhouse, the plant includes four flocculating basins, four clarifier basins, two fiherar buildings and two zeolite buildings and appurtenant works.

Those taking the trip will pass many points of interest earoute, including the renowned California Institute o f Technology, Pasadena, Santa Anita Racetrack, as well as orange and lemon groves, all with the background of the beautiful 5-an Gabriel mountains.

One trip is planned for Wednesday afternoon, leaving at 1:00 P . M . and returning at 5:00 P .M. Cost: $2.00.
