Mr. Kirchholff was manager of the Honduras division of Standard Fruit and Steamship Co. at the time the banana-an existing variety-was improved through implementation of Standard Fruit research suggestions, changing the way an industry markets. That was 11 years after he got that M. B. A. degree at Harvard in 1949.
