THEODORE B. KUCHEL Publisher MAX BESLER Assistant Publisher LEONARD KREIDT City Editor STANLEY JONES Sports Editor NEIL STANLEY Advertising Manager G. E. NELLEN Assistant Advertising Manager RALPH ROULAND Classified Advertising Manager DON YOUNG Circulation Manager -Colony QuipsBy the Gazette Farm Editor THE NEXT MAJOR move by the Florida citrus industry to get more money for growers will be the sale of citrus by the pound. This is not a new idea but it is a sound approach to the problem of increasing the sale of citrus in the retail stores. We reproduce below a front page editorial from the Orlando Morning Sentinel which states the case in clear, concise form: SO THE PEOPLE MAY KNOW Selling Citrus by the Pound—Huge Promotion Recommended—Better Value, Bigger Sales AN EDITORIAL AN AGGRESSIVE sales campaign to move the biggest Florida citrus crop in history is in the making tomorrow providing the advertising committee of the Florida Citrus Commission joins in an ambitious advertising and promotion program of the United Growers. TV-RADIOLOGIC HOLLYWOOD—There is nice angle to the debut of Dennis Day television show a quick-kine in Southernnia last week. It gave all comers to television on the chance to analyze the performances when the programs hours later that same over KNBH (Channel 4) strangely enough, the news included all the lead pieces even Dennis himself, while before had appeared on even as a guest artist. I talked to Dennis and hers on the show while they rehearsing at NBC for the end show (Feb. 22), and some of the reactions they by seeing themselves on the first time: DENNIE DAY—"If Dennis Day on television didn't I stay in radio? The thought that struck me as the show opened. As I greeted I even caught laughing at Jimmy Duran Harry Lauder... I mean ing at the impersonation these two. But what assure show's being a real laugh voker were the performa veleran comes Verna Felmy mother, and Hanley St as the NBC executive au ing me for TV. Our bright singing discovery, Kathy lips, also contributed a Selling Citrus by the Pound—Huge Promotion Recommended—Better Value, Bigger Sales AN EDITORIAL AN AGGRESSIVE sales campaign to move the biggest Florida citrus crop in history is in the making tomorrow providing the advertising committee of the Florida Citrus Commission joins in an ambitious advertising and promotion program of the United Growers & Shippers Assn., to sell citrus by the pound. Not a new idea, but one which is regarded as a sound and dramatic approach to giving the consumer a fuller dollar value in citrus for his money, pound selling is recommended as the best immediate method to increase the sale of fresh fruit in the retail stores. A check of 20 large Northern cities reveals that the cheapest food item sold by the pound is 15 cents, including apples, potatoes, grapes, bananas, peas, string beans, onions, cherries—to name just a few. Oranges sold by the pound at as low as six or seven cents would not only constitute the food price leader in any store but would represent a guaranteed profit to the grower. Efficacy of the plan has already been demonstrated in other states where increases of 200 to 400 per cent in sales have been experienced in stores where pound selling has been instituted. The theory is that consumers buy oranges for their juice and that the weight of the fruit is determined by the amount of juice in an orange. Juice weighs heavy, skin and pulp light, so weight and only weight tells which will give more juice. Therefore whether an orange is large or small, its value is determined by the weight of its juice. When consumers buy by the pound they are buying a pound's equivalent in juice. For the customer, pound selling assures getting full value, makes best values available and allows comparison with other commodities. For the store, it makes for accurate price comparisons, speeds up service, enables the store to offer the best values. For the Florida citrus industry, pound selling will help the grower by moving more fruit at a fair price on a fair basis, eliminates any discount because of size, pays the grower for juice and quality and gives him higher prices. The shipper's packing costs are reduced and he can sell without having to contend with discount prices. It is encouraging to note that the advertising committee of the selling proposal which means a program of education and heavy advertising at the consumer level. It is pointed out that whatever changes in advertising policy are needed, could be accomplished in 10 days. With a proved pound-selling experience already pointing to as high as 400 per cent increase in sales, it would seem that growers, shippers, sales outlets and stores would welcome the opportunity to get behind the Florida Citrus Commission in an immediate, aggressive and high-powered sales promotion such as is being recommended by the United Growers and Shippers Assn., and many of the outstanding citrus leaders of Florida. WE IN CALIPORNIA should take need to what Florida, the nation's largest citrus producer, has been doing for over 100 years. With a proved pound-selling experience already pointing to as high as 400 per cent increase in sales, it would seem that growers, shippers, sales outlets and stores would welcome the opportunity to get behind the Florida Citrus Commission in an immediate, aggressive and high-powered sales promotion such as is being recommended by the United Growers and Shippers Assn., and many of the outstanding citrus leaders of Florida. WE IN CALIFORNIA should take heed to what Florida, the nation's largest producer of citrus, is doing and thinking about. They have stepped out ahead of us at a very fast clip in returning money for valencia oranges to Florida growers. Those growers down there know pretty well what it is all about. They are informed by their newspapers and not by "canned news releases" which only tell the part the big shipper wants you to know. This selling citrus by the pround has more to it for the producer than you may think. You would do well to read the above editorial over again, two or three times, and really digest its contents. The Florida deal had been getting better by the minute the last few days. Read it over again. CHICO, Calif. — Traveling across the U.S.A. these days you are struck with a new cynicism on the part of the American Republic. It's a rebellious cynicism, inclined to lay all our troubles on the doorstep of Washington, a feeling of frustration, of disgust with corruption, and wearieness with the Korean war. It's an atmosphere that lends itself to any flag-waver or tub-thumper who wants to take advantage of this cynicism by running for office. This is exactly the atmosphere that swept a lot of Democratic senators into office with the anti-Hoover tide of Roosevelt victory in 1932, and it may sweep a lot of Republican screwballs into office this fall. One dangerous part of the current feeling has been a certain dissillusionment with our electoral system. Folks are resentful of the bosses in both parties and they figure that though President Truman probably didn't mean to blurt out what he said about "eyewash" primaries, nevertheless he was telling the truth. On the offer hand there is growing interest in the proposal of Sen. Paul Douglas of Illinois and Rep. Charles Bennett of Florida to hold a nation-wide presidential primary, which, though not binding on the delegates, might put a crimp in the party bosses and prevent the traditional picking of presidents in the 2 a.m. quiet of a smoke-filled room. The smartest thing Mr. Truman could do, in view of his eyewash remark and this public cynicism is to exert some altruistic leadership and help put across the Douglas-Bennett nation-wide primary. TV- RADIOLOGIC TV Debut 'Jitters' Related By Dennis Day Show Cast By TOM E. DANSON HOLLYWOOD—There was one nice angle to the debut of the new Dennis Day television show being a quick-kine in Southern California last week. It gave all the newcomers to television on the show, a chance to analyze their performances when the program was hours later that same evening over KNBH (Channel 4). And strangely enough, the newcomers included all the lead players — even Dennis himself, who never before had appeared on TV, not even as a guest artist. I talked to Dennis and the others on the show while they were rehearsing at NBC for their second show (Feb. 22), and here's some of the reactions they gave by seeing themselves on TV for the first time: DENNIS DAY—"If this is Dennis Day on television, why didn't I stay in radio? That's the thought that struck me first as the show opened. As it progressed I even caught Dennis laughing at Jimmy Durante and Harry Lauder ... I mean laughing at the impersonations of these two. But what assured the show's being a real laugh-provoker were the performances of veteran comics Verna Pelton as my mother, and Hanley Stafford as the NBC executive auditioning me for TV. Our bright new singing discovery, Kathy Phillips, also contributed a lovely show won't develop into another Snooka. But who knows, maybe he'll become a male Snooka." DOWN TV-RADIO ROW ...

This time Anaheim won, 44-43, over Orange Friday night in the Panthers' gym in the final loop game of the year between the two teams. Analeheim ended league play in third spot with a win-loss record of 5-5 while Huntington Beach took the title undefeated as they breezed by the second place team, Newport Harbor. The Sal- wards Smith and Dick each score six points. Starfing off the first Anaheim trailed by two Ira Webber fouling Mei Panthers increased their three points after McCarrid from the free throw line. Steinborn scored from and Webber from the end but Steinborn fouled Mei barin who scored to re-lead. Harold Rees scored points from the free throw after being fouled by coliams, but McCarter scored back with a two foot jump to give the lead back to Bill Ames put the loc front on his 12 foot set; the Panthers were still game and were definitely winning the game, especially guard Cruz scored on a set shot with less than 10utes left in the game and leading 41-40. Steinborn, who was re hot streak all night, said a set shot to return the Anaheim, but with less minutes left in the game center Woods came into and only attempted one it was good for two point the lead back to Orange. Webber scored on a test shot to make the score KATHY PHILLIPS, who portrays Dennis' girl friend — "It didn't hurt. In fact, after the first new breathtaking moments of nervousness and whim-whamps passed, it was a wonderful experience watching myself come out in a picture that I knew was being seen by millions. At first I actually didn't believe it was me in a coast-to-coast show. After the initial shock, I waited for the oust to happen. Fortunately, it didn't." VERNA FELTON, who portrays tennis' domineering mother—"My reaction? It was terrifying!" HANLEY STAFFORD, the NBC executive—"My reaction was sort of numb. However, after my years as Baby Snooke's late Panny Brice) frustrated father, it was a pleasant experience not having to give someone a whipping when I went on the air.

Starting off the final period Anaheim trailed by two and with Ira Webber fouling McCarter the Panthers increased their lead to three points after McCarter scored from the free throw line. Steinborn scored from the floor and Webber from the charity line, but Steinborn fouled Dick Fairbarin who scored to retake the lead. Harold Rees scored two points from the free throw line, after being fouled by center Williams, but McCarter came right back with a two foot jump shot to give the lead back to Orange. Bill Ames put the locals out in front on his 12 foot set shot, but the Panthers were still in the game and were definitely intent on winning the game, especially when guard Cruz scored on a ten foot set shot with less than five minutes left in the game and Orange leading 41-40. Steinborn, who was really in a hot streak all night, scored on a set shot to return the lead to Anaheim, but with less than two minutes left in the game reserve center Woods came into the game and only attempted one shot, but it was good for two points and the lead back to Orange.

Huntington Beach finished the season in second spot in the loop race with Newport third, Santa Ana fourth, Orange fifth and Fullerton in last spot. Fullerton and Newport met today for the final game of the season, but the outcome won't change the standings. There has been only one other team in the history of the Sunset League to win five straight loop basketball titles and that was Huntington Beach's Cee teams who won in 1943, 1944, 1945, 1946 and in 1947. They tied in 1947 with the Colonists. Anaheim has also won more Bee basketball titles than any other team—winning eight to runner-up Huntington Beach who has defense with a total point score of 332 compared to runner-up Huntington's 339. Anaheim averaged 47.2 points a game while limiting their foe to an average of 33.2. Anaheim scored their highest score against Newport in the first round—70—and they held their foe—Fullerton — to the lowest number of points—15—in the second round of competition.

Anaheim had the tightest Winter Olympics Already Success For American Skiers in Oslo Hills By DON DOANE (For Gayle Talbot) OSLO (UF)—The Olympic games already have been a success for American skiers. The ski events are only two-thirds complete and Americans already have won more high rankings than in any previous Olympics. They should rack up some more medals tomorrow and Wednesday in the slalom races, which ends the Alpine skid program. Andrea Mead Lawrence, 19-year old Rutland, Vt., housewife, still is the outstanding favorite for the women's slalom Wednesdays despite her disastrous two falls in yesterday's downhill. Several American men also have established themselves as threats in any race, including tomorrow's slalom. Here is what the American skiers have done in these Olympics to date: Mrs. Lawrence won the women's giant slalom with Kat Rodolph of Hayden, Colo., fifth, Imogene Opton of North Conway, N.H.,十五th and Jannette Burr of Seattle, Wash.,二十nd.

Average College Football Player Rests During Game Average College Football Player Rests During Game Though it's difficult to believe, the average college football player in actual action less than six minutes of a 60-minute game when he is a cog in a platoon system. This startling bit of information turned up when George H. Allen, young Whittier College grid men, put a stopwatch to his team's games last season and then sent the results on to "People Today," a pocket-sized magazine with national circulation. Currently on newsstands, the article is in the Feb. 27 issue. The editors call the time survey the best of its kind ever to be made." The timers counted only Whitier plays where there was actual contact—from the snap of the ball at the center until the referee's stifle stopped the play. Whittier's average playing time is only 11 minutes and 24 seconds, with the offensive team player a maximum of 6:10 in one contest and of 4:49 in another. Eight games, the offensive averaged 5:11 in action. The high for the defensive unit was 7:12. Its low was 5:8. Eliminated from the survey was the time spent in huddles, ball broachment, signal calling, pencils and so forth. Roy Thompson, Florida State University halfback, returned six kickoffs for an average of 27.8 yards during the '51 grid season.

Four Wrestling Dwarfs in OCAC Feature Tonight The greatest ring attraction to hit this section in many a week—the four wrestling dwarfs, headed by the famed Little Beaver and in tag team competition—show tonight at the Orange County Athletic club. First bout will get under way at 8:30. And according to advance ticket sales and reservations the "little men" figure to play to a capacity or near capacity crowd. In fact, promoter Sybil Willis thinks that the program will set an attendance mark that will stand for several months. Little Beaver last week waged a mighty tussie in a singles match with Fuzzy Dan Cupid. Tonight, paired with newcomer Prince Halassie, a powerful Abyssinian, the mity mite of the Mohawks takes on Cupid and Irish Jackie. Jackie is also new to county fans. Two other three fall attractions also are carded with the McDaniels brothers appearing against tough opposition in each. Billy Meets Ali Pasha, the rough Turk and Freedie tackles the French ring Apache, Pierre La-Briton. The program is being offered at no increase in prices, with doors of the arena opening for general admission sale at 7:30.
