And make sure it is a film type resistor. Those Corning film types are used to eliminate inductance that would be present with a wirewound. Corning FP (light blue) or Mallory MOL (green) resistors were used, but now, any Metal Oxide resistor of sufficient wattage will do.

Edit: Corning Glass Works is now part of Vishay - the Dale/Vishay FP10 series is the equivalent. Mallory no longer makes film resistors.
