H is a highly porous film -wiiich allows air to circulate around the foot while keeping water out. The product Corfam got its name from a computer selection of 5 and 6 letter combinations. The Dupont people fed informa tion to a computer, telling it to reproduce words in combinations of 5 or 6 letters. The machine found about 150 thousand letter combinations. These combina tions were supposed to be entire ly new so that they could be associated with the new Dupont product only. The first name selected could not be used be cause it was found to be Swedish. Therefore, the second choice be came the product name. This example was used to illu strate not only the marketing problem in production and sell ing, but also in name choosing. TTie A. M.
