MEET THE NEW EDITOR Bernard Marvin comes to Cranberries with valuable literary experience and the skill of an accomplished photographer. Mr. Marvin plans to meet the growers and is working on plans for many interesting articles. Any help our readers can give in the way of suggested material should be directed to this office. IBM - 1967 Perhaps our readers have noticed the new typo- graphic designs used in the last two issues. This involves an entirely new concept in typesetting- replacing the Linotype machine with a modern IBM Composer not much larger than an electric type- writer. Among other advantages, accuracy is more easily attained and readibility is assured. Any com- ments—critical or complimentary—about the new type style or any other facet of Cranberries will be gratefully received by our editor. CRANBERRIES THE MATIONAI.
