LAMPSHADES HURT HISTORY
READING. Eng. (/P) — Lamp
shades are playing havoc with
British history, Lt. Col. G. E. C.
Malet, registrar of the national
register of archives, told Reading
University students. He lamented
the custom of using “old deeds,
with interesting examples of old
writing and historic signatures
and seals,” to make lampshades.
Every one of them “tears a rent,
however small, in the history of
our country,” he claimed.

MANILA, (/P) — Constabulary

night a big battle was raging be
tween communist-led Hukibala

About 300 dissidents, using
trench mortars and machineguns,
engaged two constabulary com

There was no immediate report
on casualties.
Brig. Gen. Alberto Ramos, chief
of the constabulary, said he would

against the landlords and the ru
