Like the jungle explorer, the electrical research worker must constantly deal with the unknown.

Through the long history of electricity, the engineers in West- inghouse Research Laboratories

have known the thrills of develop- ing entirely new materials needed for new products. Konal, Kovar, Micarta, Hipersil and Hipernic, for example, are new materials devel. oped by Westinghouse. While these may be strange names to you, without them you would be without many of electricity's ser- vices that you enjoy today.

This is one of the reasons why Westinghouse has remained one of the most important names in electricity. And the Westinghouse record of accomplishment in re search is matched by its reputation for quality and dependability in the electrical products it builds.

Whatever your electrical need ...be it for your home, for geo- eration and transmission, for in. dustry or elsewhere... you can select the products of Westing house with assurance of getting the utmost in performance and satisfaction,
