All 11,000 members of the local, including 3,000 employed on the newspapers involved, were eligible to vote. Negotiations between the union and the Publishers Association were resumed today.

EDITOR'S NOTE: A strike might mean the closing for good of one, or more of New York's newspapers. This situation would not affect the bosses, only those who would he out of jobs. Eleven thousand were eligible to vote, but only 2,050 cast ballots. Something haywire there in this land of democracy?

Appliance Sales Take Late Spurt NEW YORK. (-Contrary to seasonal trends, the forecast of economists and the expectations of dealers, appliance sales are booming, the Wall Street Journal reports. It said a surprising spurt in late season sales, the time when consumer interest in appliances usually drops, may make this one of the best years recently for the industry. always thought 1962 would be a good year, but I'm a little astonished that we're doing this well," said John Jensen, general manager of Gerhards, an appliance dealer of Glenside, Pa. Similar reports came in from elsewhere around the country, The Journal said.

The survey showed retail appliance sales refrigerators, ranges, washers, running between 5 per cent and 20 per cent ahead of a year ago, with the average up about 10 per cent. "If these gains continue, as most sellers now think they will, full-year volume could be the industry's best since record article said. Given credit for the surge was renewed confidence on the part of consumers. Cheerful economic news in recent weeks has given shoppers confidence they will hold the jobs necessary to pay for appliances on time, the article said. "Folks never were convinced that a recession was coming, and by now they don't believe it at all," was the way Sol Polk, a Chicago appliance dealer, put it.

Many Local Firms Take Part In Marketing New Ball Game The old adage "Build a better mousetrap" is a misnomer for at least one facet of our business world. The children's game field! Back in 1956, The Wall Street Journal reported one of the leading game manufacturers had received 48,000 game ideas from hopeful inventors about the country. They contracted to use four of them, placing the possibility of acceptance at 12,000 to 1. These odds have been sliced to 1 in 6000, wherein A. F.

Blake, six-year resident of Ft. Lauderdale, is concerned. In '56 Blake developed an arithmetic game called "Thirteen" which was popularized through Life, Look and The American Mercury Magazine plus editorial praise in The New York Sunday News. Subsequently it was approved by a subsidiary of the National Education Association for supplemental use in the nations classrooms. Soon after, Cadaco-Ellis Chicago game producers added it to their line of 32 games, including Walter Lantz's "Woodie Woodpecker" and Marlin Perkin's "Zoo Parade," old TV favorites of that year.

Blake was pleasantly reminded of the aforementioned odds this past week while introducing his latest brainchild, 'Living Room at a newly-opened department store. Happening to pay a visit crosstown 1 to another store he came upon an imposing display of his old game "Thirteen" being offered to the local market. Now the odds are 180,000,000 to 1 that Blake is the sole individual in America who can point to two game offerings on the market at the same time as being his own creation. His "Living Room Baseball," designed for use by baseball player card fans, is made locally by Morfun Inc. and will move to the national scene after market tests here are completed.

A startling sidelight to all this brings into vivid focus the effect just one $1.98 item can have on the economy of a community as witness the firms involved in production and distribution of 'Living Room Broward Wholesale distribution locally; Hy Mallinger N.
