The appearance I attempted in the shape of a I frankfurter. I Hyman Kleinberg, presi I dent of the firm that's tinker ing with the shape of a part of America, said in an inter view that the "frank in '.he round" is in response to con sumer requests. "At sports events, in par ticular," he said, "there have been requests for hot dogs on round rolls or bagels to lessen the chance of losing the meat delicacy while reaching one's destination through a crowd." The research and develop ment devision of Klcinbcrg's firm (American Kosher Pro visions company) found that the hot dog that deviates from the straight and narrow is 35 per cent easier to hold onto. "Since one can get a better grip on the meat," Kleinberg said, "the chance of a frank being consumed without spil lage in a crowd is increased." The hot dog expert said his firm's Brooklyn, N. Y., plant has retooled a portion of its operation for the manufacture and stuffing of circular wee nies. He said the meat is pressed In a mold that looks some thing like a metallic dough nut, i The round dogs will be test marketed In the New York area within the next several weeks. National distribution is planned for spring, Kleinberg said his firm sells millions of hot dogs nation wide and that It probably will be just a matter of time before other hot dog makers join the circle. The notion of a hot dog that; looks like a doughnut brought up the matter of dunking. ' Sure, Kleinberg said. "They can be dunked in hot or cold barbecue sauce, in gra vy or In a saucer of mustard. You can even serve them with baked beans in the mid dle. The future of the round hot dog Is endless." Concert, Announced A 60-voice A Cappella choir of Lewis and Clark college, Portland, will give a concert in Medford Friday, March 10 The choir's appearance here Is under the sponsorship of First Presbyterian church and the concert will be held at the church.
