New Quadruplets' Father in Daze, Mother Is Happy PHILADELPHIA just can't get over it-quads happening to me, I mean," said William Cutaiar Thursday as, in a fatherly daze, he passed out cigars by fours. "It didn't exactly happen to you. Bill." said a grinning friend The one it did happen to, Bill's 24-year-old wife, Arlene, a former beauty queen, rested happily in Delaware County Hospital. Like her husband, 26, she still found it hard to believe they're the parents of quadruplet girls, born Wednesday night and at last report doing pretty well. The quads' weights, in order of birth, were: 3 pounds, 3 ounces; 2 pounds, 13 ounces; 3 pounds, 3 ounces, and 3 pounds, 1 ounce.

The doctor told Bill and his wife several weeks ago that quads were on the way. But telling is one thing, producing is another, and, in Bill's words, "I simply didn't believe it." All the same the Cutaiars, who live in suburban Malvern, indulged in a little gay speculation, saying. "Just suppose we had four boys. What would be more fitting than to call them Matthew Mark, Luke and John?" They were the evangelists and apostles who wrote the New Testament gospels. Fate changed all that and now the couple is casting about for names for girls, The Cutaiars have two other children, William IV, 4, and Marie Sheree, 3.

The husband helps his father run a trucking business. The mother was Miss Aronamink in a local beauty contest in 1955.

Airline Stops Unaffected The American commercial airline which stops at Dhahran, Trans World Airlines, would be able to continue doing so, U.S. authorities said.

The history of Dhahran airfield dates back to World War II when' the late King Ibn Saud okayed construction of the base with U.S. aid as part of the Allied war effort against the Axis. Sources here said the present King Saud has been friendly toward the United States but other elements in his country have been pressing for ouster of U.S. forces. Discussions concerning renewal of the present Dhahran airfield agreement, which dates from 1957, had been going on for some time.

Then within the last few days, the Saudi government told the United States it would not rethe agreement, authorities said. YOU CANT COVER CONNECTICUT WITHOUT THE COURANT Bridgeport Gas Ordered To Pay $85,164 Refund The Bridgeport Gas Co. was ordered Thursday by the State Public Utilities Commission to pass on an $85,164.46 refund to its customers. The PUC said the firm received an $89,025.15 refund from its supplier, the Tennessee Gas Transmission and has already returned $2,860.69 of the refund to an industrial customer. The company was, ordered to file a proposal with the PUC within 15 days for distributing the balance of the refund to its other customers.

Provision in Rate Hike A rate increase approved March 25, 1960, by the PUC provided that the company's customers would be reimbursed if any re- fund was received from the supplier. The refund was received Dec. 2 by the company after the Federal Power Commission lowered the rates charged by Tennessee Gas. The company claimed that its income was not excessive and that it should not be required to pass on the refund to consumers because operating costs have risen. High and Low Estimates But the PUC said "the company's anticipated revenue appears on the low side while its estimated cost of operations appears to be on the high side." The commission alowed the company to maintain its present rates but ordered the refund for consumers.

The PUC also said it will continue "to scrutinize the company's operations in order to determine whether further adjustments in its rates and charges are required" and directed the company to report any future refunds received from Tennessee Gas. of will of the of FARLEY FUNERAL HOME, INC.
