TALKING OF BUSINESS
Cooke Firm President
Is Author and Hunter
BY TRUMAN II. TEMPLE
Star Staff Writer

Picture a company president
who Is author of a best-selling
dictionary, flies a Piper four
scatter Commancne to hunt elk
in Montana, and takes business
away from an Iron Curtain
country.
This unlikely composite is a
57-year-old grandfather in the
bargain, and ais name is Mel
son M. Cooke.
Yesterday his company,
Cooke Engineering Co. of Alex
andria offered $4,000 shares of
common stock for public pur-
chase at $11 a share. 1t was
Immediately oversubscribed, and
today the price had risen to
$12.75 asked and $13.25 bid
when the markets opened.
Cooke Engineering performs
development work for industry
in the elecTronics field, special
izing in automatic radio signals
and detection of flaws in rail-
road equipment. It also designs
and produces radar distribution
systems.
Extensive Curiosity
Mr.. Cooke, however, is a kind
of Renaissance man with a
strong curiosity in almost
everything. He started in 1920
by enlisting in the Navy as ap-
prentice seaman, became a ra-
dio operator, and rose through
the ranks to lieutenant COM
mander. During World War II
he won the Secretary Of the
Navy's commentator from the
late James Forrestal for his
work training electronics per-
sonnel.
He grumbled about the lack
of a good mathematics book
for electricians and radiomen,
and did something about it.
His books title: Mathematics
for Electricians and Radio
men," published in 1941 by
Nc cGraw-Hill.
Writing Comes Hard
Though Mr.. Cooke complains
that writing is "the hardest
thing in the world" for him, his
work went through IS print
ingS and sold more than 500,-
900 copies. Last year he rewrote
it, Incorporating new develop
ments, and titled it Basic

dahlias that look promising.
One of his creations, which he named
Midnight, is one of the richest, darkest reds
that can be found among these flowers
Although MIR. Stong likes to show off his
large blooms, he also grows the smaller
dahlia varieties.
When you grow the large ones, you
need rich soil and lots offertilizer," he says
But with the small ones, you want poor land
and no fertilizer. You want to discourage
big, lush growth"
Mr.. Stong's dahlias have gotten to be
"fulltime, parttime" job. His plants soon
grew too numerous for his backyard garden
plot, and have now spread into neighbors'
yards
And, although it is hard work, Mr.. Stong
says dahlia growing is "restful" occu-
