Record Toy pfi Sales Are felJ Predicted V&M By Gay Pauley tilJJt NEW YORK (UPl) Those merry little cash registers at the toy counters will ring up a record sales (or 106:t with pur chase of everything from the classic teddy bear to a now doll who converses in six languages contributing. The Toy Manufacturers of the U. S. A., Inc. estimated that their sales for l!lli3 will set a record, if they keep the sales pace they had set through Sep tember. The year l!Hi2 was the indus try's first billion dollar year at wholesale level when toy pur chases totaled $1.1 billion. For KIM, said the manufacturers' president, A. C. Gilbert, Jr., sales should run six to nine per cent ahead of 1!IH2. The industry once cslimatcd sales at the retail level, too. but quit three years ago simply because the highly competitive market which included discount houses made it impossible to make an accurate estimate of retail purchases, said Frank Gavitt, a manufacturers' spokes man. Sales Double Manufacturer sales totals have more than doubled in the last decade. The association said purchases for '53 totalled S513 million. In 1947, the total was $308 million. All that loot (or the chil dren's Christmas stocking shows two major trends this year, said the manufacturers. One is the plethora of new toys. Stranaelv. said Gilbert, the mililary group includes only small seement of snace - age tovs, apparently because as one ; "We know there will be car manufacturer explained, boys : loads of teddy bears sold this associate being grownup with , year." he said. "There always being what dad is now or was at sometime in his life. And rare are Ihc dads who blast off to work each morning.

There is an Army Engineer's set of heavy : guage sleel that's oriented to building air fields or missile bases, a plot of land for bar racks, or just high speed high ways. There's a Tiger Joe tank lhat's a yard long and can be driven forward or backward by remote control. It climbs over obstacles and the cannon breech loads harmless plastic shells. The variety of planes is in finite; so is the variety of mili tary seacraft, said the manu facturers. For small girls, new toys include cosmetics kits to make up themselves, or to make up their dolls: a variety of house-; hold appliances; and dolls which this year are greater performers than ever before. Dolls. Dolls, Dolls There are dolls that cry, dolls that drool, dolls that blow up balloons, dolls whose hair "grows", dolls which squirm with pleasure as they are fed from bottles, dolls which cry when spanked, and laugh when tickled. There's one doll : equipped for a conversation in six languages, and another who coughs and sneezes between conversational gambits her young owner is supposed lo nurse her back lo health. Gilbert said all Ihe long-time favorites abound. The Western influence continues, and this year children will have a choice of hundreds, perhaps thousands, of stuffed animals are. One other price nole: Gilbert said that in general "loy prices will be a little lower this year."
