California firms send executives back to school
In Southern California many firms, including Packard Bell and Mattel, are sending executives to UCLA's Graduate School of Business for a two term, one day a week program begun in 1954. The courses focus on five fields and aim to elevate executives from specialists to generalists. About 80 executives attend, with company sponsorship covering university fees. The typical student is an engineering-type leader moving toward vice presidents or presidents, seeking updated knowledge on computers, economy, market, and corporate finance.

Oakland Airport Faces Push for Jet Service and Growth
Friends of Oakland's new 25 million airport deny it is a ghost facility yet admit active efforts to boost traffic. A Regional Committee led by former official William Lisonland urges travelers to lobby airlines for more jet service to use the modern facilities. The airport opened with fanfare in 1992 but lacks airline service as carriers favor San Francisco International. A Civil Aeronautics Board inquiry and a 1950 complaint reflect ongoing tensions, with a 1950 survey showing Oakland-originating passengers at 28.6 percent of total but only 4 percent of jet passengers using the Oakland airport.
