Y. -'UPD- Solo. mon Dutka learned early in life that being able to total two and two can add up to success. Dutka. now 38. was a col lege graduate at 19 and con tributed his mathematical skills to the making of the first atom bomb before he was old enough to vote. By the ripe young age of 25, he was recognized as a leading statistician and at 29, he was head of his own marketing research organization. He attributes his success to having received a good edu cation. A native of the Bronx. New York City, where his father ran a tailoring shop, Dutka was encouraged from his earliest years to be a ded icated student. We had to like school," he says. "Our parents saw to that." After graduation from the City College of New York in 1943, Dutka was inducted into the infantry. The Army decided his mathematical tal ents should not be wasted and sent him to the University of Illinois for a special engineer ing course. Two years later, Dutka be came a civil engineer and was assigned to the Manhattan project at Oak Ridge, Tenn., where he received a special citation from the secretary of war for his work on the first nuclear weapons. Advanced Study After the war, Dutka re ceived a master's degree at Columbia university and be came a lecturer on statistics I at City college and Columbia. He wanted more than the aca demic life, however, and be came the chief statistician of the research firm of Elmo Roper and Associates. Then he helped organize and direct a medical and pharmaceutical research company, a task that stirred his interest in haying his own organization. Out of that dream came the Audits and Surveys company. which he founded in one room in 1953. So successful has this venture been that Dutka has moved and expanded the operation nine times. Dutka and his organization provide manufacturers with continu ous and comprehensive counts of sales, inventories, purchas es and distribution of their force of more than 1,000 re products in all kinds of retail searchers across the country outlets. to keep data flowing. He employs a staff of 200 Dutka still has time to research specialists in his teach statistics at New York New York offices and a field university's graduate school of business. He also likes to travel by airplane or bicy cle. When he is not traveling to distant places, Dutka likes to join his wife, Sylvia, and two sons on bicycle rides.
