Miners LAMP IS
new IN Design
This One, Just Developed, Has
Two FilanentS .

Cleveland, May 23.--tP'-A new
two filament incandescent lamp for
miners, which assures adequate illu-
mination throughout the working
day, has been developed at the Ma
tlonal Lamp Works by engineers of
the General Electric company.
Fitting into a small reflector that
is worn on the cap. the lamp is
operated from a compact two cell
storage battery strapped to a
belt about the workers waist. The
filaments function at different in
tcnsities. The aior unit, giving II
beam candlepower OF light, is used
until ii fails and then the throwing
of simple switch on the lamp d.
reefs the current into the low
candlepower emergency filament
which gives enough light to enable
the minor to finish his days work.
The emergency filament is rated
az low candlepower, assuring longer
life than if ii We're of the same
power as the first and can be burn
ed for so hours or more
In the past, lamp failures have
often occurred when the lights are
being used underground by the
miners explains C. E. Egler, en-
etneer of the lamp works. 1T is
not practice at mines 10 provide a
place below the ground for replac-
ing burnedout lamps. Either the
miner must be furnished with an
other equipment, or he must go to
the lamp house on the surface to
get another lamp.
/ Usually he has stopped work

self and the operator. Now this con-
dition has beer corrected by the two

the TrojanS' first successful encounter
in three engagements with the Rock
nemen of South Bend.
Spiking the mighty right arm of
Johnny Neimic, Notre Danes halfback
aerial sharpshooter, to the turf, the
Trojans unlimbered their mightiest
guns from the start, and crowd of
10000 saw them score three direct hits
on the Ramblers' goal posts before their
struggle was half over. So bitter was
the salvos of the Trojan artillery that
the Rocknemen were on the retreat
through most of the first two periods.
But the Notre Dame troops which had
routed both the Navy and Army in the
East, were not utterly demoralized
They launched powerful counter at
tack in the third period that beat back
the TrojanS to the center of the battle
field and then sent the brilliant John
Chevigny away on a 50-yard dash to
score. Again, as the battle neared its
end, they battered down Troy's wall
and marched to a second Touchdown

Fast and powerful, the Southern
California squad jumped into action
from the opening kickoff smeared sew
eral of Neimic's long shots. and began
march on its own 36-yard line that
1emorselessly ground the Rocknemen
before them.
That first period drive, when Notre
Danes defense crumbled before the
mighty Trojan march, paved the way.
1t shattered the morale of the invading
troops and before the half was over,
they were almost completely in rout.
Notre Danes vaunted warriors were
trapped under a barrage of passes that
tipped through the air when least ex-
pected. and crushed by a whirling,
crashing gridiron dynamo on the
ground.
Their own aerial attack helpless be-
fore the uncanny ability of Southern
Califcrnia's pass interferers; their line
buffeted by thunderbolt blows and a
rain of passes from the air. the
Ramblers could not help but retreat be-
fore the TrojanS in the first half.
