Clayton Degen. IS, of 66

caused an explosion that blew

the only door through which
they could escape.
While flames spread around
them, Clayton Degen and from

they could open the door and
run to safety. Sparks touched
off Trombley's clothing and he
rolled in the snow to extinguish
the flames.
Clayton Degen escaped in

The damaged trucks and tires
were all inside the garage. Two
of the trucks were rolled outside
by firemen, but all three and
the tires were damaged beyond

damage to the trucks and tires
at $4,000 and placed damage to

These teams of sub killers,
working in close cooperation
with planes and blimps where
possible, are considered by some
well-qualified authorities to be

and deadly U-Boat wolf-pack
methods.
That they will be badly need

Charlotte Republican and chair
man of the Senate Liquor COM
mittee.
An outspoken advocate Of
tighter liquor control to stem
what he describes as a ground
swell of prohibition sentiment"
DeFoe said the measures would
give the Senate a chance to ex-
press its opinion on definite pro-
posals. Picard's recommends
tons resulted from an investiga-
ton by study commission, Of
which he was chairman.
One bill, touching on what
DeFoe has described as the most
controversial of proposed re-
