Sioux Cm, JOa (I gjfc Volkswagen Sales Cutting Into Field Of Foreign Car Market in United States New York (U.R) Car manu facturers were in fierce com petition for sales in 1952 when a beetle-like little German car went on display in New York and drew immediate attention from American car buyers. The tiny runabouts with the name "Volkswagen" (People's Car) syphoned off . sales from American built cars with claims of economy (price from $1,495 up), low operating cost (35 to 40 miles to a gallon of gasoline), and ease of parking. Workmanship Claimed Suparior Volkswagen bucked the for eign car competition by calling attention to its 36 horsepower air cooled engine-in-the-rear, its custom made features, and claims of superior German work manship. It began to eat into the sales of such favorite foreign cars as the sporty Jaguar and the trim MG which had been sell ing at the rate of 12,000 to 14, 000 a year, with most sales con centrated oil the East Coast. Within two years the demand for Volkswagens encouraged its West German manufacturers to build a national distribution service. By 1955 there were 360 franchised dealers operating from coast to coast and Volks wagen sales were better than ever. The company had cornered 60 per cent of the foreign car market and sold 33,000 passen ger automobiles last year. At the same time the sale of other HYPNOTISM Has been successfully used In muscular rheumatism, constipa tion, menstrual disturbances, migraine headache. Insomnia, stuttering, etc. For Information regarding Hypnotism see W. L. WHELDEN 336 S. Riverside, Medford, Ore. foreign cars slipped steadily. "We sold 20,323 Volkswagens in the United States in the first five months of this year," the distributing agent said. "Our sales for the year will be 40, 000 to 45,000. We'll do even better next year." Jaguar Trails in Sales So far this year Volkswagen's nearest competitor among some 50 foreign cars is the Jaguar with 1,334 sales in the first five months, MG with 1,299 sales and the Austin Healy with 1,223 sales. Volkswagen expects to get a steadily increasing share of sales normally going to American car manufacturers. The company is particularly interested in devel oping Volkswagen as a second car for two and three-car famil ies. It has used some techniques surprising to American car buy ers. It never changes its models from year to year. It uses the same basic chassis for all mod els. And it uses, only very low pressure sales practices, includ ing a long wait for delivery. Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent Editor's note: Aline Mn;hy Is on vic.tlon. Don Wilson writes today's Kiiest column ahout his job as an nouncer on the Jack Benny television and radio shows. BY DON WILSON Written for United Press Hollywood (U.R) Twenty three years ago I laughed and got a job I've been with Jack Benny ever since. I was working in the East as a sportscaster and had the good fortune to be included in a gen eral audition for the Jack Benny program. Jack, as part of the au dition, kidded the boxtop craze by inviting his listeners to tear the tops from their automobiles and mail them in. I was convulsed and my voice, trained to project over the roars of football crowds, carried to the microphones. I've been laughing with and at Jack from that time 'til now. Boo-boos' Turned About I'm fortunate to have been as sociated with a star with a real sense of humor who appreciates the "fluff" or "boo-boo" because I've contributed more than my share. Jack and his writeYs have been wise , enough to turn mis takes on the show to advantage. For example, who can forget Mary Livingston's "Chiss Sweez Sandwich" or her car which was at the filling station on the "Grass Reek." Once I signed off one of the CBS-TV shows with a distortion of the sponsor's pet slogan. It came out "Be Lucky, Go Happy." Jack promptly assigned my wife, Lois, the announcing chores for the following three weeks to my distress and Lois' delight. Equipment Moved Backstage Contrary to many shows, the equipment on the Benny TV show is located behind the stage with only the microphone booms on the stage. This is done so the audience can have a clear view of the players. Three cameras are used. One on the left is for long shots, one on the right for medium shots and one in the middle for closeups. This camera in the middle is a favorite of Jack's. We have a joke that it's one of a kind and CBS uses it only on the Benny show. It has a special device that "makes a 62-year-old man look 39." More Subdued Colors L For Auto Seat Covers Chicago (U.PJ The trend is toward more subdued designs and colors in automobile seat covers and interiors. "It's the trend because people want it that way," said Howard F. Leopold, president of Ero Manufacturing Co., a leading producer of seat covers. "It's something like a change in women's fashions." Leopold said automobile-makers must be keenly aware of public taste. Forecasts for 1957 passenger cars indicate that in terior styling colors will be more subdued, he said. But he added that there is one exception to the general trend. Californians still go for the loud er colors and styles. TvJadAT. Aiurasi 14. 1S5S MEDFORD (OREGON) MAU. TRIBUNE THUS Techniques of Mass Production Evaluated Berkeley, Calif. (U.R) Studies by University of Cali fornia industrial engineering professors are causing many in dustrial firms to re-evaluate their mass production techniques. Conducted by Prof. Louis E. Davis, the research shows that very repetitive tasks are boring to most people and the overload ing nf nn vrnlls with assembly- line specialists is hurting morale and production emciency. Under a new system of "job design" or "job enlargement" in which each worker builds the entire product, it was found ;n 9t lpocr nnp instance that quality output and morale went up.
