Empty That Dust Bag

A common trouble with the eff
cheney of vacuum cleaners is a
dust bag too full of dust.
The dust in the bag resists the
flow of air, and the harder it be-
comes for the air to go through
the sweeper and the bag. This
means the suction effect is reduced
and this, of course, reduces the
amount of dust picked up.
You won't be hurting anything
if you empty the dust bag after
every cleaning; and you may be do
ing a better, faster and cheaper
job. Running vacuum with the
bag full of dust wastes time and
electricity.
Many homemakers often forget
about dumping the dust bag and
the result can, and too often is, a
burned out motor

sNEAD FADES IN STRETCH
Souchok Puts Way
To St. Paul Victory

ST. PAUL, MINI, Aug. Ia
tAP) Mike souchak. one Of
the mightiest hitters in pro-
fessional golf. used a couple OF
gentle taps with his putter to
end a two-year title famine
and post the lowest score Of the
tournament season.
The 3l-year -old muscleman
won the $4,000 st. Paul Open
yesterday with a final round
SIS that gave him 263 for the
70 holes at Keller Course, which
proved again to be one of the
softest touches in big-time golf.
Souchak's score was Is I'M
der par, three better than the
previous tournament record
held by Ken Ventura, Cary
Middlecoff and Lloyd Man
grum.
MY putting Strengthened
out just in time said Souchak.
THAT 15-footer made on the
ninth hole was the turning
point. 1t put me ahead of
Sam Snead for the first time
all day"
Souchak and Snead. playing
in separate threesomes. hooked
up in a battle of brides early
in the round before the grind
started telling on Sam.
One stroke ahead going into
the last round, he bogied on
the sixth for the first time in
the tournament and steadily
slipped behind the charging
Souchak. Sam was four strokes
back at 267, tied with Julius
Boros, at the finish.
Souchak'S 15-footer on the
ninth and his 25-footer for a
birdie on the fourth were the
crucial ones. They helped him
to a $500 FIRST prize check, his
first blue ribbon payday since
he won here two years ago, and
brought him the best 72-hole
tournament score Of 1858.

The Detroit Lions and Green
Bay Packers are the only clubs
which have not been tested in
a National Football League ex-
hibition game so far, if De-
troit'S 1919 loss to the College
All-Stars Friday night can be
thrown out.
After a round of five games
over the week end, there are
several conclusions which can
be offered at this early date:
Gorge Halas has lost none
of his coachinT skill after
watching his Chicago Bears
from the sidelines for two
years; the New York Giants are
fortunate that Frank Clifford
is taking break in his movie
career and Billy Wade could
make Los Angeles Rams rooters
forget the controversial trade
which sent Norm Van Brocklin
to the Philadelphia Eagles, al
though the Eacles certainly
seem better of because of the
deal.
Halas, who relieved Paddy
Driscoll, saw his Bears wallop
the Chicago Cardinals, PAT,
yesterday in Buffalo. In San
Francisco, a crowd of 25,657
watched the Forty-Niners take
a 1910 defeat at the hands of
the Giants.
Livingston Stands Out
In three games Saturday
night, the Rams downed the
Redskins, 31-10, before 1854
in the Los Angeles Coliseum;
Van Brocklin tossed three
touchdown passes as the Eagles
squeezed by the Baltimore Colts,
1923, at Hershey, Pa, and the
Cleveland Browns BANKED
Pittsburgh, 100, at Akron,
Ohio.
While the crowd in San
Francisco was small in COM
pariSon to that in Los Angeles
the night before, the total still
was about 5000 more than was
on hand for the nearby base
ball game between the Cubs
and Giants.
Clifford, the all-pro halfback
who almost stayed in Holly
wood this season, scored the
Giants first touchdown on a
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1958-08-18
HoIos, Clifford Display
Old Formin Exhibitions

20-yard pass play from Tom
Dublinsky. But the games
outstanding star was Cliff Liv-
ingston, New York defensive
back.
Livingston blocked two punts
and intercepted a pass which
led directly to IL points for the
Giants. He blocked Bill Jes-
sup's punt on the Forty-Niners'
25-yard line to set up Gifford's
score in the second quarter.
Livingston smeared Jessup'S
next punt on the goal line and
the ball bounced through the
end zone for a safety. The
Giants still trailed, 1919, at
halftime but wrapped it up
with 10 points in the last pc
Rod.
Jim Patton ran a stolen pass
81 yards to set up Don Helm
rich's 18-yard pass to Bob
Schneider for the Giants sec
ond score. Livingston then in
Itercepted a San Francisco pass
and ran it to the 7-yard line,
but the Giants had to settle
for Ben Agajanian's field goal
from the 20.
GalimOre Gets Loose
Willie Galimore galloped for
two touchdownS for the Bears
in Buffalo. The 6Ifoot-1 speed
ster from Florida AIM eli
NAKED a 62-yard drive in the
first period by scooting % yards
around left end. He ran rs
yards in the same direction for
the Bears final score with SIS
seconds remaining in the third
quarter.
The Cardinals evened the
score at TT when Lamar Nc
Han connected with Max Boyd
ston on a 38-yard pass play
in the second period, but
George Blanda put the Bears
ahead to stay with a 15-yard
field goal before halftime. The
Bears defensive line held their
Icross-town adversaries in check
thereafter.
Wade stepped out of the
shadow of Van Brocklin by
pitching two touchdown passes
and running 10 yards for an
other Saturday night as he
led Los Angeles to an impress
sive victory in the annual
charity game.
