A resident of nearby Farmington, Miss Naum has been with the company for almost ten years. She carries on her interest in electronics at home-its her pet hobby- and shortly will enroll at a Detroit university where she will attend night sessions in the electrical engineering college. The device tests regulators for 1950 Fords under simulated road conditions. In just two minutes it heats regulators to a temperature equivalent to an hours workout on a automobile engine.

The platinum, at $1,334 a pound, makes the part one of the most expensive, ounce for ounce, in your car. Here Florence Naum of Ford Motor Company's Ypsilanti, Mich., plant looks with a magnified, critical eye at selected samples to be sure each is in perfect condition to assure long wear.
