Miss Hoohing was both too stendy and loo severe for Miss Thomson, whose drives often found the net. This lack of ball control was almost entirely responsible for her losing the first set, but she played much better in the second, drawing her to the net and passing opponent up. her. She led 4-3.

"WHAT IS A WATT?"

The man who reads your clec- tric meter will probably explain that a walt is a unit of electrical ... that 1000 of them power make a kilowatt.

He may also say that a watt is far more than this. The watts. that you use are the "muscles" that drive the motors of your electric refrigerator, washer, vacuum cleaner and fan. They furnish clean, even heat for cooking and ironing. They fur- nish power for the wheels of in- dustry, as well as light for streets at night.

Building the equipment that

makes and delivers these watts, and the electrical servants that put them to work, is the busi- ness of Westinghouse. For more than fifty years Westinghouse has been the pioneer of new and better ways to make and use electricity. Whenever new needs arise, Westinghouse research and products play an important part in satisfying them.

The name of Westinghouse on any electrical product as- sures you of the utmost in qual- ity and dependability.
