John C. Holland

John C. Holland (1893–1970) was one of the longest-serving Los Angeles City Council members, for 24 years from 1943 to 1967, and was known for his losing fight against bringing the Los Angeles Dodgers to Chavez Ravine and for his reputation as a watchdog over the city treasury.
==Biography==

Holland was born July 6, 1893, in Bartlett, Texas, the son of William Philip Holland of Fluvanna County, Virginia, and Betty Connell Holland of Liberty Hill, Texas. He was married to Alice Colby Wells of Redlands, California, on June 30, 1919. They had two daughters, Mary Elizabeth Neeb and Helen Louise Osterberg.〔(Los Angeles Public Library reference file )〕
Holland attended high school in Roswell, New Mexico and spent one year at the University of Texas. He then attended Stanford University, where he was active in debating and was on the wrestling team. He graduated in 1917 with a prelaw degree and then went into the Army.〔
In 1919 he opened an electric-supply business in the Northeast Los Angeles community of Highland Park, which he operated until December 1951.〔
A Republican, he was a member of the American Legion, the Masons, the Kiwanis Club and Delta Sigma Rho fraternity. He served two terms as president of the Highland Park Chamber of Commerce and was active in the Northeast YMCA.〔〔
Holland died at the age of 76 on March 10, 1970, at Broadview Christian Science Sanitorium, Montecito Heights, after an illness of several weeks. He was buried in Forest Lawn Memorial Park (Hollywood Hills).〔
