the temperature rises to about $50
degrees the bulb drops, smashes and
a vapor forms from the chemical
within the bulb. The vapor is car
ried by the draught created by the
fire and, being heavier than air, settles
to a lower level, robbing the fire of
the air which makes its progress pos
sible.
If a fire should break out in some
room other than the one where you
have the bulb, you can detach it
yourself and fling 1t at the fire.
Once it breaks its action is the same,

lot with the professional football
clubs makes the loss more ap-
parent than realized in the spring.
Karpowich and Lajousky are mem
bers Of the starting team of the
Pittsburgh Pirates; Mulligan is
with the Philadelphia Eagles, Nc
Gam is expected to join the New
York Yankees and Pete Dranginis
is already working out with the
Pittsburgh team of the newly or
ganized American League.
Reaching down in the bag of re-
serve strength and taking for
granted the showing made by the
various players in the spring ses-
sions, it now appears that an open
fight will be Waged for at least
two positions on the varsity start
ing team. These are left tackle
and right guard. Outstanding can
didates for the post at tackle are
Leo KatalinaS, the 220-pound re-
serve from last season, and Sam
Pagano, a senior gridder, who has
been pushed in the background
due to the stellar playing of Kar-
povich the last few campaigns.
However, Pagano showed a world
Of stuff in the spring and. made q
much better impression on the
Cardinal coaches than did Kata-
inas. But the fight was only be-
gun, and will continue straight
through the fall drills until Coach
Bergman announces his starting
lineup against Shenandoah, and
then maybe that post will not be
clinched by either lad.
Bidding for Guard Berth
The right guard will have Dick
Arnolds and Vic Sochon stag.
ing merry tussle. Arnold, be-
cause of his years of experience
as member of the varsity
team, holds the inside track,
but Sochon, a junior this season
and one of the outstanding
sophomore linemen of last year,
can not be counted out until
the season is far under way.
Both are rugged individuals and
pack world of speed in their
thick legs. They charge with
alertneSS and power and loom
as key men in the plans of
Bergman for the fall.
Except for one or two hold
overs from last years great
eleven, there is little hope Of
unearthing anything of promise
from the frosh outfit, which
was regarded as one Of the poor
est IN several seasons. Jim O'Con-
and Frank Cairo are the Iikeliest
looking tackle candidates, while
Johnny Carvelas and Wayne Am
brose appeared to be the best
among the frosh guards. How
ever, both CarvelaS and Ambrose
may be converted into centers,
thus breaking up all hope of as
surfing the team Of many re-
serves at guard.
Speck Foley, the brilliant quar-
terback of last season, who di-
vided the assignment with Dram
ginis, looms as the first choice
at that post, thus plugging a
gap that was woefully weak
throughout last season. Foley has
the experience behind him now
and can be counted upon to turn
in a good game each Saturday
afternoon. Several ends, led by
zeke Brown. should keep Null
ligan'S right-end post in tow.

c. U. Line Gaps Leave
Coach With Problem

What is going to happen to the
Catholic University football team
without the services of those
players that graduated the past
spring? This is the question that
is now making the rounds where
C. U. football is the topic of the
bull sessions.
Frankly, it is hard to state just
what the Cardinals will do without
the likes of George Mulligan, the
sensational end of last season, and
Hal McGann, who was Mulligan's
first string reserve; Capt. Ed
Karpowich, tackle; Bill Lajousky,
guard; and Pete Dranginis, quar-
terback. The spring practice drills
out Brookland way were exceed
ingly quiet from a publicity point
of view, which may tend to mean
that Coach Dutch Bergman and
his aides are up against it for
material to take the place of those
lost through the graduation por-
tails.
