I Album Maker Sexy, Sensational Cover Light, the veteran bandleader believes the old saying that "you can never tell a book by its cover" also may apply to phonograph record jackets. Yet Light believes that the cover encasing the long-playing record is an important a a which deserves carefu! attention. So when Light recently launched his new Command label a company that has taken a gigantic step forward in the bowid- 'less field of stereophonic sound, he best "possible jackets. The undraped woman heretofore had been the greatest eye- catcher. But often the music within the sexy wrapper was inferior and not worth the price, leaving the owner with a pretty picture and a useless record.

Light embellished his jackets with symbols that were anything but sexy. All of his command records are encased in jackets decorated with geometrical designs. "We felt we had a new wav to present popular music in America," Light said. "This not only required a new concept in recording but a new cover concept as well. "We have always felt that a certain percentage of the public is more discriminating in its musical tastes and a new album cover was needed as well." So Light commissioned Josef Albers, a famed modern art designer, to do his first four jackets.

He also obtained the services of Irwin Rosenhouse, twice a recipient of the Huntinglon Hartford Fellowship for Graphic Arts, 'and Neil Fujita, an internationally known graphic artist. He put Charles Murphy, a former pupil of Albers, in charge of the project. CALL US FOR COAL Good Clean stove Stoker Run-of-Mhic Chesthnt Briquets Also Red Ash Splint WELLS COAL CO.

Richard B.

Russell, today suggested a trial program for the purchase of broiler chickens by the agriculture department for the school lunch program. Russell made the suggestion in a letter to Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Taft Benson. Georgia is a leading producer of broilers. The agriculture department previously has declined to buy poultry with funds authorir.ed by Congress for purchases of surplus agricultural commodities. Russell's proposal would involve other funds appropriated by Congress specifically for purchase of food for donation to the school lunch program.

Congress has authorized 125 million dollars for this purpose but none of it has been used to buy broilers. Russell asked Benson to start a trial program of broiler purchases. He told him he expected lo pursue his proposal vigorously with the new Kennedy Administration. Railroads of the United States employ more than 850,000 persons. The Progress-Index, Wednesday, Dec.
