Inside the oven or on top of the

"Myhusband calls our Electric Range
civilized cooking with its perfect
temperature control and clean heat.
And I like the way it keeps my pots
and pans clean-the way they hug
the top of the heating elements,
there's practically no heat wasted
into the kitchen"
For any kind of meal, an Electric
Range is thrifty to use. Food waste is
cut down because you get uniformly
good results. And you're not tied

watching for you.

Gen. Michaelis of Lancaster,

He was a lieutenant colonel 10
months ago when he took COM
mand of the 9th Infantry Regi-

at Pusan.
He and the Wolfhound Regiment
got along from the start - both
were fighting machines.
When the United States 9th
Army was being battered daily on
the Pusan perimeter. the late Gen.
Walton H. Walker used the Wolf
hounds as fire brigade and called
Gen. Michaelis his fire chief.
Gen. Michaelis drove his men
hard and himself harder.
He won a Distinguished Service

overrun battalion command post,

Civil Damage Suit Filed.
Time was running out again
when defense attorneys filed civil
damage suit in Federal Court late
Saturday during a week end of

The suit charged that McGee's

Judge Sidney Mize set a hearing
for the injunction petition at /

Mr.. Pernecky, who lives at 421s
Sixteenth street NV, finds tele-

hard of hearing. In radio, he said
yesterday, words often are missed
whereas in television they are
picked up by lip-reading. The
deaf find women, easier to under

in putting across the meaning of
their words.

the committees views that no
difficulty is expected on this score.
| Whether the Senate will go
along with the committees 10 per
cent raise remains to be seen. A
number of Senators who are not
on the committee have said pri-
vately that the amount is too high
and that it should be trimmed to
S or 6 per cent.
Meanwhile, the House Civil
Service Committee is expected to
take a different approach to the
Federal pay increase problem than
it's Senate counterpart, and the
two groups probably will have to
thresh the matter out to see which
approach is used.
Chairman Murray of the House
group favors a fiat $3.50 or there
abouts for all classified employees.
He is against a percentage in
crease, declaring that the latter
would mean a larger raise for
upper -salaried workers.
But the Senate group feels that
middle and top-salaried employees
are entitled to a larger cash in
Grease than lower paid workers in
order to maintain the salary bal
ance of the Classification Act. In
reply to this Mr.. Murray says the
pay raise legislation is strictly a
device to Offset rising living costs
and that lower-paid employees, if
anything, are harder hit by inf1a-
ton than their higher-paid COL
leagues.
Its an issue that will be hotly
