McKinney Color Proves Effective For Sales Promotion By GAY PAl'LET UPI Women's Editor NEW YORK (UPI) - Roses are red, violets are blue; new ways with color, are selling you. Today's variation of this dog gerel tells in one way how the experts are using colors to in crease consumer buying of every thing from automobiles to ap pliances. One color authority is Howard Ketcham, a New Yorker, who since the early 1930s has served as consultant to business and industry. Consider some ways color af fects our buying, as related by Ketcham: Cotton bags dyed a brilliant tangerine Increased sales of cit rus fruits in bags from 1.250 mil lion to 10 million in one season; Shoppers favor apples that are half-red instead of those on the green side, but sales decline when the apples displayed are all red. Color contrast whets our appetite; The Pennsylvania Railroad served steaks cooked with radar, but patrons sent them back be cause they looked gray. The rail road modified the cooking ap paratus, so It would scar the out side of the meat an appetizing brown, and increase sales. American Telephone and Tel egraph, within three years after Introduction of colored telephones (styled by Ketcham), sold 10 million at an added profit of $10 each over the traditional black models. "Ninety per cent of all buying decisions are emotional," said Ketcham, in an interview at his office (one deep blue wall, three walls neutral, one door tan gerine). "Since color appeals di rectly to the emotions, it is one of the most potent selling tools." "Yet a reaction to color is per sonal; it is difficult to generalize on how one shade affects all individuals. "We do know that certain shades of yellow may connote cheapness, irritate us, distress us. on the positive side, yellow can cheer, stimulate, invigorate, imply luxury." Where will the color engineers lake us next? To making our towns into a veritable rainbow, said Ketcham. Ketcham foresees the day when cities will be filled with many colored skyscrapers because of laboratory development of new paints which adhere to metal. I asked Ketcham whether this thing of color could be overdone as the auto industry did with mauve and shocking pink cars. "Certainly," he said, "there is the hazard of hodge podge. So each city will need a color ar biter. In the case of the car in dustry, there were just too many people making decisions. But I see no reason why a city, just like a well - dressed woman, shouldn't have a color scheme. 4-H NEWS TULELAKE Modoc County's 411 enrollment for 1960 has reached an all-time high of 362 members and 109 leaders.

The gorgeous festival, with its parties and dinners and renewed friendships, is over. The tree comes down and the last bit of tinsel is cleared out and the ornaments are tucked away until next year.
