Ransom M. Callicott

Ransom M. Callicott (July 12, 1895 - November 14, 1962〔) was president of the National Restaurant Association, co-founder of Meals for Millions and a member of the Los Angeles, California, City Council from 1955 until his death. He was one of the doubters of the proposal to bring the baseball Dodgers from Brooklyn and install them in a new stadium in Chavez Ravine, insisting upon carefully examining the plans for the stadium before it was built.
==Biography==

Callicott came to Los Angeles from Saint Louis, Missouri, in 1919 and began his career in the restaurant business as a busboy for the Boos Brothers restaurant chain. In 1931 he joined Clifford E. Clinton in the operation of Clifton's Cafeteria and in 1932 became Clinton's partner. He was a food consultant to the government in World War II, touring military camps and recommending diets for service personnel. He was a co-founder with Clinton of Meals for Millions, which packaged and distributed a high-protein product called MPF, or multipurpose food, to fight hunger. Other activities included director of the Welfare Foundation of Los Angeles and president of the Trojan Club—the only president to that date who had not attended the University of Southern California.〔〔("Council Pays Tribute to Ransom Callicott," ''Los Angeles Times,'' November 16, 1962, page A-1 )〕〔(''El Pueblo,'' September 1961, Los Angeles Public Library reference file )〕
Callicott and his first wife, Anne Kennedy,〔("Weddings," ''Los Angeles Times,'' November 29, 1942, page A=5 )〕 divorced in 1939. He married again, to Alice Callicott, in 1952, and they lived at 201 South Occidental Boulevard.〔〔(Location of the Occidental Boulevard home on "Mapping L.A." )〕
Callicott, then 62, first suffered a heart ailment in April 1959 in Washington, D.C., as he accompanied Mayor Norris Poulson and Councilman James C. Corman in a bid to bring the 1960 Republican National Convention to Los Angeles; he was treated at Georgetown University Hospital.〔("Councilman Callicott, 62, Ill in Capital," ''Los Angeles Times,'' April 11, 1959, page 1 )〕 He died of a heart attack three years later in his home at 353 South Lafayette Park Place〔(Location of the Lafayette Park Place home on "Mapping L.A." )〕 on November 14, 1962, leaving three young children, Bryan, Bret and Charles Edward, and a daughter by his first marriage, Mary Rose Brown. Burial was in Forest Lawn Memorial Park, Glendale.〔〔("Vital Record," ''Los Angeles Times,'' November 16, 1962, page 28 )〕
