So states Art Blakeney, Ore gon Technical Institute pro fessor who conducts a super visors' training class for Har ry and David, Inc., foremen and supervisors. Blakeney takes his theme from top Harry and David management. "Quality is the one commodity that keeps us in the fruit business," accord ing to Bill Williams, vice pres ident in charge of commercal fruit sales. A top entry in the highly competitive gift-fruit market, the MedforcVjfirm carries out this quality control concept from orchard to shipping dock, Williams noted. Blakeney conducts the OTI training program through the general extension division of the state system of higher ed ucation. It is one of many bus iness courses offered through the office of business and pub- JU 5 -?e GOOD ADVERTISING REALLY SELLS! When you tell them, they know. But when you sell them, they buy! And buying makes the difference in your business profits. Apply this same thinking to your advertising. A listing in a business directory tells the pub lic that you're in business. A timely, pointed ad in the Mail Tribune Classified Section tells 'em . . . and sells 'em! A Want Ad shows the customers that you have what they want right now . , . and gives them good reasons for buy ing it right now. When you have something to sell . . . use the advertising medium that knows the difference between telling and selling. Use the Want Ads . . . they make the profitable difference! MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE MEDFORD MAIL lie administration of GED's department o f instruction, state-wide. Conducts Other Courses Besides the supervisory course held weekly for Harry and David foremen, Blakeney conducts a similar course for women department heads there, plus a course for Med ford Corporation foremen and a Monday night public class. In a typical class session at Harry a"lid David's, foremen are heard discussing the role of production line efficiencies in holding costs down. Doug Roach, plant operations super visor, demonstrates on his own chart'how today's profit squeeze can effect the growth of an organization. He sum marizes: "If we can't keep costs down, we're out of bus iness." Jerry Evans, company food technologist, has prepared a study of cost savings achieved in the manufacture ot pre serves. Other suggestions are heard from the group. A dis cussion ot further efficiencies follows. Vital In Program "This cross-breeding of ideas among the production depart ments is a vilal element in our program," Blakeney states. "The employer gains some im mediate returns on ius invest ment right here." The chain of supervision at Harry and David has many vital links. On each depends the smooth flow of the firm's annual0 $8 million volume. Check points are built into every step nf the journey from orchard o the customer's doorstep to maintain Harry and David's one priceless commodity-quality. Dick Wager, traffic super visor at the Medford plant, controls a complex schedule ni train ano w-uck inuviMiieuio to assure proper handling nnHfir whnlpupr tvpnthpr con ditions exist. Before the shipments leave i the shipping dock, quality con trol checks have sorted out 5 second-bests, whether they be pears, peaches, apples, nectar- C ines, grapes, oranges, grape fruit, randy, jams, jellies, fnnt rake, rhrese, plum pud ding, gladinlas or roses. TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON IN SUPERVISORY CLASS Supervisory training classes are held regularly for employees- of Harry and David's Em ployees taking the classes will head departments during the rush season prior to the Christmas holiday. Art Blakeney, professor nf business administration at Oregon Technical Institute, Klamath Falls, is instructor. ucts Supervisors arry and David's The most popular line at Harry and David's fci their world - famous trademarked, "Fruil-of;-the -Month Club," under which they ship out packages of fruit to such cus tomers as Eleanor Roosevelt, Bernard Baruch, Hary S. Tru man and Dwight D. Eisen hower. The preparation and ship ping of this wide range of delicacies' requires more of foremen and-supervisors than simply "know-how." There must also be a dedication to the concept of quality around which the success of the firm revolves. Bear Creek has a regular staff of 175.

A well trained, dedicated team of supervisors must be available to carry the "qual ity" message to these people. "Thai's my job," Blakeney points out. "I acquaint these supervisors to the quality needs of their jobs." But his technique is through self-education. He teaches supervisors to seek their own questions amj answers. When the an swers are found, Blakeney knows they'll stick. POWDER 69c Representative of Blind Commission To Visit in Area A representative from the Oregon commission for the blind may be available after June 15 to coordinate work on a local rehabilitation cen ter for the blind, according to Clifford A. Stockcr, com mission administrator. Illness of the most likely representative to do the job has caused some delay, Stock er noted in a letter to the Jackson county court. "It was somewhat surpris ing to learn that the interest has now apparently shifted back to having only the blind in this center," Stockcr noted. James Pullman, public wel fare administrator here, said Friday he had not noticed such a shift of interest during the series of meetings held with the county court on the proposed center, Pullman has been pressing for a multi purpose center which would include an activity center for senior citizens and for gen eral vocational rehabilitation. County Judge Earl Miller said Friday he understood that it might be more feasible to start with a blind rehabili tation center and include the other groups later. This might make it easier to obtain fed eral funds for remodelling one of the old buildings on the Jackson county fair grounds south of Medford, he said.

"Our crying need right now is for someone who could spearhead this development.. We don't really have anyone who has the time or the de sire to really get out and push ' it," Pullman commented. ; "This would require a non-; profit organization to set it: up. We need a committee to ! get a board of directors who! would set up the procedure for the center," Pullman said.; Pullma.t said Friday he had ' received only one voluntary '. offer to work oi the commit-: tee.
