would lose to Heafner, the
blond giant who won the Ha

Gerard, Ohio, a few weeks ago
with an astonishing 72-hole to

It was a crusher what hap
pened to Nelson yesterday. One
of the world i greatest golfers,
he shot a miserable 77 over a
course whose true par Is about
70, to dissipate a lead that had
looked Impregnable and finish
in a tie with Heafner, each with
280 strokes for the four rounds.
Heifner, having posted an or
dinary 72 on hia final round,
and harboring no real hope of
anything better than second or
third money, became one of pos
sibly 30,000 spectators who
watched almost unbellevedly as
Nelson blew sky-high in the
course of a stretch duel with
Lawson Little.
Nelson started the day five
strokes in front of Haefner;
eight ahead of Little. He was
considered to be "in," the clos
ing round to be a mere formal
ity. Yet when they began trying
to move the record golf crowd
out of Tarn O'Shanter last night
the scoreboard read: Nelson 280.

HOW TO MEASURE
Advertising Values
TT TE ask advertisers to think of the clr-
culation of this newspaper in terms
of the distribution of their advertising
the size, quality and interest of the audience
to which their advertising is addressed.
From that viewpoint our circulation be
comes a more direct factor in business plans.
There are well-known standards for cir
culation values just as there are definite
measures of weight and quality as used
in the purchase and sale of merchandise.
The standards for evaluating circulation
have been established by the Audit Bureau
of Circulations, a national cooperative
association of 2000 advertisers, advertising
agencies and publishers in the United
States and Canada. This newspaper is an
A. B.C. member.
The Bureau has a large staff of experi
enced auditors and each year one of these
men visits our office and makes an audit
of our circulation records. Based on the
information thus secured, the Bureau issues
official A. B.C. Audit Reports.
These reports tell how much circulation
we have, where and how it is distributed,
how much people paid (important because
paid circulation proves reader interest) and
many other facts that make it possible to
invest in newspaper advertising on the
basis of known values.
For complete and verified information
about the distribution of your advertising
when it appears in this newspaper ask us
