The key position of Pacific Western in the deal Is that it owns 47%
of the,outstanding stock of Mission Corp., which, in. turn, owns 59%
of the stock of Skelly Oil, a corporation larger than any of the others.
Mr. Skelly, who is also a director of Mission, recently obtained a pre¬
liminary injunction in the-Nevada courts forbidding a special meeting
of Mission stockholders from voting on the merger.
He contended that
the Mission stockholders. were not getting as good a deal as Pacific
Western
stockholders,,, and declared that if he were upheld by the
courts ■ he- will -lake- -steps. • to ■ liquidate Mission, "
In planning for the merger Sunray had arranged through Eastman,
Dillon & Co. for $87,000,000 to finance purchase of the Getty family
