Mr. H. HATTERSLEY has resigned his position with Karrier Motors, Ltd., of Luton, and thus will bring to an end, this month, an unbroken connection of 30 years with that concern. He will then take up an appointment as sales manager with Dennis Bros., Ltd., of Guildford. It was as early as 1909 that he joined Clayton and Co., of Huddersfield, which was then producing its first Karrier petroLengined vehicle. He held the position of assistant works manager during the whole period of the 1914-18 war, following which he became sales and service manager, and in 1925 sales director. For six years following 1928 he was joint managing director with the
late Mr.. R. F. Clayton. Since the removal of the company from Huddersfield to Luton, after its absorption by the Rootes combine in 1934, he has controlled the whole of the company's sales activities, which have shown a steady increase. We wish Mr. Hattersley every success in his new sphere.
