Power Troubles Bring Trouble in Rhinelander Area Two cases of trouble experienced by the Wisconsin Public Service Corporation late yesterday afternoon brought an epidemic of "trouble" in the Rhinelander area, it developed today. The power trouble caused lowering of voltage on circuits serving the entire northern portion of the company's territory, including the Rhinelander area, Ed W.

Boyce, local manager for the company, explained today. The trouble started at 3:50 p. m. and continued an hour or more in First bit of trouble to hit the system was an insulator failure' on an oil switch at the Hat Rapids sub-station. Before that was cleared up a ground developed in another oil switch at the Rhinelander substation.

The combination of the troubles caused the lowering of voltage. A number of electric motors were reported damaged or "burned out" as a result of the low voltage when they were not shut off promptly. Included were some motors serving refrigeration units in stores, taverns and other establishments. About half of the readers of The Daily News in Rhi-nelander had to wait several hours later than usual for their papers, for the power trouble occurred midway iri the press run yesterday. Most of the carriers who had not received their papers when the trouble developed were sent home to supper and then recalled when the trouble was cleared up.

There were no reports of anyone being injured or seriously incon-' venienced as a result of the power trouble, however. About 80 per cent of our drinking water is treated with liquid chlo-. rine to destroy the harmful bacteria. EXPERT RADIO SERVICE BUDREAU'S 62 N. Brown St.
