Photograph article dated June 16, 1947 partially reads, "John D. Gregg, the Los Angeles gravel operator, who is facing a $350,000 damage suit and injunction action to restrain his rock mine expansions in San Fernando Valley, was digging today - for the deeds to property he is charged with buying "in secret and clandestine" negotiations."
