1

Plaintiff-Appellee Jewel Companies, Inc., filed this action for injunctive and compensatory relief against The Westhall Company, d/b/a Jewel Mart, alleging that defendant's use of the word "Jewel" in its Jewel Mart stores unfairly infringed upon appellant's "Jewel Home Shopping Service." District Judge Thomas D. Lambros entered judgment in favor of the defendant. Reference is made to the comprehensive opinion of the district court for a recitation of pertinent facts.

Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is affirmed.
