The 1966 season had been un-
kind to Roberts. He won three
gams but lost five. He com-
pleted just one of his 12 starts
and showed well in only one of
his last four tries.
It was a different story last
year. He signed with Houston as
a free agent in August, after
requesting his release from the
Baltimore Orioles, and won his
first four games for t^e Astros
— including, successive^shutouts
in his first two appearances.

The most captiyatirig kitchens around are in
electric Medallion Homes. It’s just about sure to be
love at ^firet sighf when you see one of these
beauties,, for here is proof of how modem and'
efficient a "kitchen can be.
Notice the handsome built-in electric range and
oven that make cooking so clean, quick and cool.
And just look at the handy outlets for your toaster,
blender, mixer, can-opener and all your other
electric kitchen aids.
There’s almost certainly a dishwasher and
disposer, plus special outlets for your electric
refrigerator-freezer, washer, and electric dryer.
This same kind of thoughtful attention to your
living pleasure and convenience extends through-
out a Medallion Home. It’s Reddy wired to give _
you full “Housepower,” with all the outlets you
need. And there’s “light for living” for warmth and
cheer. Your home builder is thinking of you and -<»
