Misquoted,

said today he was misquoted in
newspaper reports that he would
bring suit to oust Slate Sens.
John Carson and Frederick S.

Wallace said he has no inten

two senators were appointed by

Scared? Well, then drive to the

experts. Shell people know how often your

corrosion; how to adjust hold-down clamps
so they won't crack the '.cells; etc., etc.
