Stern Warning Issued by Chief Following Pranlc Fire Chief Vernon Carlon issued a strong admonition this morning to pranksters who Sunday night poured gasoline along Delaware avenue and then ignited it. The chief reported that firemen were called at 9:45 p.m. to douse gasoline-fed flames running be tween Broadway and Wall streets on Delaware. Carlon satd It was "luck" that prevented the stunt from injuring the pranksters or persons passing by. The persons involved in the stunt have perhaps not thought of the danger involved both to them selves and others," the chief said. 'Any source of ignition when the gasoline was being poured," he continued, ' might easily have re sulted in tragedy. The person pouring might have been seriously burned, as might persons passing by. Gasoline is designed for use in internal combustion engines ana any other use of the product can be highly dangerous." If this was intended as a prank It was only luck that kept it from resulting in serious injury." Saturday at 1:25 p.m. the fire department was called to the home of Mrs. Mane S. Eriksen, 505 Florida, where a washing ma chine engine had ignited. Seven FFA Boys At K.F. Session TIME TO REMODEL!
