For adults it would mean a

Why even contemplate so

Because, by maintaining our

The PGA said the card wa!
revoked because Deesen'S
scores-uSually in the high 70'

professional tour.
Deesen contended that the
right of PGA members to play
in tournaments without qualifi

dence of discrimination. APP

not PGA members.
However, Judge Burke found
that no evidence of discrimina
ton of any sort existed in
either the PGA's membership
requirements or its tournament
rules for nonmembers.
He said failure to limit en-
tries of non-PGA members
could end professional tourna-

end statement.
Subject to a final audit,
RCA's 1868 sales will be ap-
proximately $l,78O,OOO, 900 with
operating profit after taxes ap-
proximating $65 million.
He said-profits from opera
tions in 1868 increased Is per
cent and gross income in
creased 2 per cent over 1862.
Earnings per common share
for the year will be $3.55 to
$3.50, compared with $2.84 in
1862, he said.
RCA has now had IL conSecu-
tive months of increased profit
ability over the same periods
Of the previous years and the fl
nal quarter of 1868 will be the
single best profit quarter in the
44-year history of the company,
Gen. Sarnoff said.
Looking to 1864, the chairman
predicted a year Of economic
advance and heightened busi-
ness activity in both domestic
and foreign markets.
Gen. Sarnoff cited these three
principal product and service
areas which provided "a deci-
sive impetus to growth-for
RCA In 1908.
1. Color television, in which
profits from sales of color ap-
paratus and related color Serv.
ices increased by 70 per cent
over 1862, with color accounting
for a major share of the record
earnings from all RCA consum-
er product sales.
2. Broadcasting, in which the
N ational Broadcasting Co.
earned Substantially greater
profits than in its previous rec
ord earnings year Of 1852"
3. Electronic data processing,
in which RCA's revenue from
sale and lease of standard COM
puters and peripheral equip
ment in the United States and
abroad increased by more than
so per cent in 1868 and in which
RCA holds firmly" to its pro-
jected crossover into profitable
ty in the fourth quarter of 1864.
The RCA chairman said a
decline of 10 per cent in the
company's defense business in
1868 was more than offset by
commercial and industrial gains.

He cited a cumulative total of

SKI TRAILS

The winter is off to a fine
start. as far as local skiers are
concerned. The prolonged cold
spell has frozen the ground to
. good depth. and most area
operators have taken adyan-
tage Of the below freezing
temperatures to make" snow
day and night. Their aim is to
provide an adequate base by
building q thick layer Of snow
over the frozen ground.
A two-foot base of packed
snow is excellent insurance
against the periodic mid
winter thaws that plague local
ski area operators. Machine
made snow makes q most
durable base due to the fine ice
crystals formed in the snow
making process.
Once the base is set, the area
can Withstand q prolonged
warm spell and recover good
skiing conditions in one pro-
ductive night of snow-making.
=
This writer skied at the Big
Boulder ski area one week end
after a week-long thaw, cou-
pied with rain, had washed
out" other areas in the East.
The base of machine-made
snow was intact and skiable.
despite the water that ran off
in rivulets. Big Boulder contin-
ued to operate daily while
other areas were waiting for
the ground to freeze again so
they could rebuild their base.
The advantages gained by
the proper utilization Of snow
making equipment can extend
q money-losing six-week season
into q profitable 12-week
season for the canny operator.
Since local skiers must spend
from two to eight hours or
more travelling to enjoy their
favorite winter sport, they are
q bit sensitive regarding mac
curate reports on skiing condi-
tions. When an area reports
that skiing Is good, skiers
expect to find a cover of good
powder or packed snow with an
absolute minimum Of ice or
thin spots. They assume that
the area Is fully operating.
Several years ago a ski area
In Southern Vermont gained
the unsavory reputation of
being most unreliable in report
ing skiing conditions. Reports
Of good to excellent skiing
would draw large crowds from
Washington and other cities
along the Eastern seaboard.
The week end enthusiasts
would arrive at the area after
an all-night drive, only to find
poor to impossible skiing condi-
tions.
Disgruntled skiers finally
had their inning when the ski
area manager appeared at q
club meeting here to promote
business. He got the business"
in q fortnight manner and left
red-necked to contemplate the
wisdom Of giving honest, con-
servative information about
