PALS—Though he carries the burden of defending a continent and is harassed by those who want to learn if he's a presidential candidate, Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower still has time to be a randfather, a very devoted one. This very human photo-study of the general and his grandchild, wight David, age 3!/;, was taken at Ft. Knox, Ky., where Gen. Eisenhower saw his son and family | for the first time in almost a year. Though pressed by newsmen and photographers, "lke" managed to whisper such a secret into the little boy's ear as to set, his eyes shining, his head almost bursting with excitement. (Other Eisenhower stories, Pages 3 and 24; Talburt sketch, Page 24).

O' Man Winter is going to relax his grip on frosty-nosed Hoosiers tomorrow. The unkindly old gent wrapped his snowy blanket over most of the state Monday night and has been an unexpected and unwelcome guest ever since.

The weather bureau said temperatures will creep up to a comparatively rosy 45 degrees tomorrow, following a nippy low of 18 registered here early today.

If you're planning a jaunt to the gridiron Saturday. chances are you won't have to sit in blinding near-blizzards which marred the manly sport last week.

No snow is seen by the weather seers, who say Saturday will be like tomorrow. Just in case you didn't already know, November has been 8 to 25 degrees below the average.

Most Streets Clear

Last Saturday was something of a low record for the month, when témperatures ‘averaged 25 degrees below the usual. Most Indianapolis streets are clear of snow and ice, although motorists found some thoroughfares slippery last night when thawipg .snow froze. Most highways throughout the state are responding to the sun, but those in the northern third of the state still are icy. The most Hoosiers were near Lake Michigan, where a storm toppled a second building into the lake and

Record Set In Vote Count

An all-time record for speed in tabulating official city election returng was set by the Election Canvassing Board yesterday.

Complete, official tabulations of Tuesday's balloting were signed at 5:15 p.m. less than 24 hours after the polls closed. It was the first time in history that the official ‘count was completed here in less than 36 hours,

M. W. (Skiv) Cameron was in charge of the official count and Matt Ranes headed the staff that completed the unofficial totals by 8 a.m. yesterday. Official totals last night were almost identical with the unofficial tabulations issued yesterday morning. The vote for Joseph Wicker as Democratic minority member of the City Council remained only

U.S. Bans Changes In TV, Car Models Beginning Feb. 1

Order Issued To Save Tools For Defenses

By United Press

AL IINRS Nw

The government today banned major model changes in automobiles, washing machines, refrigerators, television sets and other civilian goods after next Feb. 1. : After that date, manufacturers of consumer goods may not receive machine tools for making such changes, according to an order issued by the National Production Authority. ; They still may get replacements for worn-out machine tools. The order permits them to make whatever minor model changes they can with their existing tools. The NPA said the action was taken to make way for greater output of machine tools for armament and ether defense production. “This will place a severe handicap on industries output has been reduced of the more urgent needs of the mobilization program,” Swan Bergstrom, director of NPA’s metalworking equipment division, said.
