Whither The
Super Market
AP NeMsfeatures

al NCW SIcdJuIcS
The housewife shopping in 1875
may find her supermarket automaS
ted to a point, but She'll have nc
truck with pushbuttons that de-
priveoher of feeling the foods she
wants to buy.
And while there will be certain
gradual developments in convent
ence foods" says designed Paul K
Halstead, cooking will never be-
come lost art. Cooking is one of
the pleasures of life"
Halstead's consulting firm to the
self service industries has designed
some 200 supermarkets here a n
abroad. 1t will operate the Inter
national Supermarket at the Fifth
International Food Congress a
Exhibition at New York's Coliseum
this fall.
The Way 1t May Be
Based on developments already
at hand, here's how Halstead Wis
uahzes suburban shopping decade
from now:
The housewife drives into COW
cred parking lot and steps out of
her car onto a moving sidewalk.
She passes thru a 30-to-40 feet wide
open area protected by an air cur
tain, into an air conditioned dust
conditioned store.
She gets off the moving stair
way, selects a motorized shopping
cart and rides along selected items
from gondolas and shelves reached
easily from her seat in the cart.
Most items sit ono chardboard
trays that expose merchandise o
mass display. AS soon as one tray
is empty, another is rolled into it's
place.
III she wants to know where a
certain kind of item is located, she
presses a button and receives a
card showing the location in rela-
tion to store layout.
Few Delays
When she selects produce, 1T
most likely is pre-cleaned and pre-
packaged. There are many items of
diced or sliced vegetables, the bulk
of which are flown rather than
trucked in.
Also easy to select are packaged
items in z foot tall doorless re-
frigerators and wall cases operat-
ing on the air curtain principle.
Few delays will be encountered
at the cheokout counter. All items
are price marked with sensitized
ink and the cash register reads
prices as food rolls down con-
veyor. O
Automatic Delivery
A checkout clerk collects h e
money and the proper amount of
change is automatically dispensed.
The merchandise is bagged auto
matically and then sent through
tunnel to the parking lot. The
shopper lis given a small card on
which is printed an electronic cir
cult.
She rides the moving sidewalk to
her car and drives to the parcel
pickup station. There she merely
inserts the card in slot and her
package is delivered automatically.
An attendant puts the food in her
car and she is on her way back
home.
