"Out of the two-billion zippers Americans bought last year, our Newark plant produced 140;000,- 000,"" she said. "My part in get- ting these zippers on the market is always on my mind. ; "Zippers, or slide fasteners as they're called in the trade, have come a long way. since Whitcomb L. Judson of Chicago, a mechanical engineer, filed his first application for a patent for MRS, WALTER CAmPBELL a slide fastener in 1891," said Bernita. "Judson saw his invention as a ge to eliminate the nui- sance of lacing and unlacing calf - high shoes,' she said.
