The Westinghouse Electric Corporation said yesterday that it would try for a second time this year to sell its 62 percent stake in Micros Systems Inc. for at least $150 million as part of a plan to reduce debt.

Micros shares fell $1.25, to $33.50, in Nasdaq trading yesterday, while Westinghouse shares slipped 12.5 cents, to $15.125, on the New York Stock Exchange.
