Found Profitable The IGA national advertising manager, Orville Johler, told 1,500 wholesalers and retailers attending the alliance's 27th in ternationl convention that IGA has found It profitable to in crease its newspaper advertis ing budget each year. He also said that the group plans a "new look" in advertis ing "which we consider to be one of the most progressive steps ever taken in the food field." "Full page ads will no longer show many items as was the general practice in the past, ' he said. Ad To Have Focal Point "Each IGA ad will, instead, feature a currently popular fash ion that will be fully illustrated on the page and serve as the focal point of the ad. Food items to be advertised will be held to a maximum of IS items. "In this way, the housewife will be able to 'keep in style,' in dress and in her food purchases." Coronado May Have Gone Info Nebraska Marysville, Kan. (U.R) Co ronado, Spanish explorer, may have gone as far north as Neb raska. Homer Reynolds, farmer liv ing near the Kansas-Nebraska border, has unearthed a halberd, a spear-like weapon which might be a Coronado relic. The University of Kansas mu seum, where the weapon was sent for identification, reported it evidently was a Spanish weap on. Found five feet beneath the surface, the halberd's long point had rusted away and a portion of a hooked point also was gone. Otto Wullschleget, historian and farmer, believes, the recent find, coupled with the old Span ish sword discovered in Marys ville city limits in 1908, proves Coronado's wanderings in 1540 and 1541 carried him this far ncrth in his search for the Seven Cities of Cibola.
