For many years The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company has enployed research people to courit the different brande of tires on cars in the CNE parking lots on Labor Day. Here's how Gruneau Research Ltd. tackled this. staggeang counting -job this year.. In an advance rehearsal, a staff of "counters" is briefed by V. C. Gruneau, President of Gruneau Research Ltd. "Counters" are paired off in teams -and each teamn is allotted a section cf the C.N.E. parking lots ta caver. On each team-, anc spots tire brands and cails.aut the tire names, the other keeps- the record af each brand. In 4 hours the counting task is cornpleted. The records of each team are tabulated into totals of tires by brand. Gruneau Research people do the tabu- lation on-the-spot in an hour an-d a haif.
