OTI Professor Cond
Training Course at H
"Quality is a kind of re
ligion around here, and I'lr.
the chaplain."
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-

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!

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.

Before the shipments leave

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

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.

ary, the staff is enlarged to

machine operators, bow tiers,

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.

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.

Pullman said Friday he
hopes to confer with the coun
ty judge on the proposed cen
ter. The division of vocation-"
al rehabilitation also has mon-
ey to put into the center if
it should be used for that pur
pose, he noted.
"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. Miller confirmed Friday;
that a committee for the con.,
ter has not yet been appoint-;
ed by the county court. ;
