Gives Tips For Shoppers New York—(UP)—The best way to avoid the headaches that usually go with the Christmas shopping season is never to forget to be businesslike. That lapse of thoughtfulness "brings the average customer to grief" more quickly than anything else, says John A. Blum, manager of the adjustment department of a large New York department store. Drawing on his long experience, Blum endeavors to ease the shopping woes of Americans by listing these do's and don'ts in and American Magazine article: 1- Don't throw away your sales checks after you've made a purchase. The check may save you time and trouble if you have to make an exchange. 2—Don't demand to see the manager about an exchange or adjustment that can be made by the sales clerk. 3—Read the labels on merchandise. Find out how to use and care for the things you buy, and what they're for. 4—Don't expect luxury goods to last longer than utility items because they cost more. Dancing shoes for instance, aren't made for hiking. 5—Check your name and address on the sales check for delivered merchandise after the clerk has written it. Wrong addresses are the No. 1 cause of non-delivery.

According to patrolman Robert A. Corwin, the campus traffic officers will blossom forth in dark forest-green uniforms about Jan. 1.

"I believe that the safety features we will have on the uniforms will be the first such to appear," said Mr. Corwin. "They will be made so that when light strikes us, certain portions of the uniform will reflect the light. This type uniform will probably be adopted by all persons engaged in traffic safety work."
