The New York Knickerbock-

cuSe Nationals in Madison
Square Garden. The triumph
was a squeaker as the Mats
threatened to pull it out in the
final seconds.
In other action, the Boston
Celtics defeated the Cincinnati
Royals, 124-121, and the St.
Louis Hawks edged the Los
Angeles LakerS. 137-136, in
double overtime.
With just 80 seconds left, and
the KnickS ahead by one point,
the Mats Dick Barnett missed
three straight shots from under
the basket. Then he fouled
Johnny Green, who made good
on two free throws with six
seconds left to send the Knicks
ahead, 114-111.
The Royals were down by II
points in the third quarter
against Boston. They pulled tc
within one point, 118-117. Then
the Celtic's Bill Russell took
over. He blocked several shots
intercepted one on the way ur
and hogged the defensive back
board. He dropped In a two
pointer and Bill Sharman add
ed a free throw to pull the
Celtics out of danger.
Al Ferrari scored just one
point for the Hawks against
the Lakers-but it proved to be
the margin of victory. With the
score tied in the second over.
time at 136-all, Ferrari dropped
in a free throw. Just 26 seconds
remained.

the process. More porches are coming off
than going on American homes these days.
Dormer windows and breezeways are
often added to change and improve styling.
z. Did you create more storage
space to add convenience?
YES NO
This may involve converting some of the
unfinished space cited in point two, or using
parts of unfinished rooms for closets, storage
for toys and games, tool storage and space
for hobbies. Here the trend is toward built
in storage to take advantage of wall space
without sacrificing floor space. Ample stor-
age space is genuine luxury.
s. EsyOur heating and cooling equip
nsenf up to date? YES NO
We are fast moving toward the time
when complete home cooling units will be as
standard as heating equipment. Until then,
single room air-conditioners are the most
functional. Furnace modernizatiOn ranges
from the addition of a new air filter to a
complete new installation. The most i'm
portant improvement though, is installing
automatic, individual room thermostats.
These are the improvements the majority
of homeOwners want most. In addition to
these, there's one important improvement
that isn't such cheerful prospect, but does
face stern reality: radiation fallout shelter.
Shelters built now may save many lives.
The multi. billion dollar job of moderni-
cation now going on in the United States
includes vastly more than has been covered
by this checklist. 1t extends from chimney

2. Are you converting unfinished

Example: converting part of the base

two bathrooms are standard.
4. Have you added new space to
increase comfort? YES NO II
Example: adding new bedroom or a
garage. Some postwar homes were built
with nominal bedroom space and, in many
cases, more sleeping room is being added
now. Another popular improvement project
is to convert an attached garage into an
added room, and then add low cost carport.

with the enlarging of the warehouse

A new all-steel warehouse is
now being constructed northeast
of the plant. Occupancy is expect
ed by July 1st of this year. Floor
space is 10000 square feet, which
should greatly help the storage

The plant receives the raw ma
terial, mostly oak, with some pine,
from Louisiana and Arkansas. This
wood arrives in bundles. The
stored product is shaped and
formed in the Gamerco plant, by the
latest in machinery. Assembly of
the wood parts follows. sanding and
vanishing follows. Final assembly
and packing completes the action in
the plant. All of the products sold
from this plant are wholesaled to
large companies, Sears and Roe
