Volcano leased Near Naples For 750 Years POZZUOLI, Italy—Since the end j of the 12th century, Italians have I been teasing with impunity a vol- j ! cano less than 30 air miles from ; dangerous Vesuvius which has • caused so much damage. The volcano is Solfatara. a little ! one at Pozzuoli just west of Naples ! : which has not erupted since A I) I 1198. It is safe because it is equipped with iiundreds of tiny fis sures. or fumaroles, which con tinuously give off gases and thus relieve interior pressures.

Provoking a Volcano Tourist guides discovered years ago that a lighted match or even , a cigarette brought close to the l mouth of one fumarole not only provoked that particular one into emitting a denser cloud of steam than usual, but simultaneously ox ■ cited others in the vicinity. Trav elers who have been mystified by : ihe spectacular phenomenon can be assured there is a scientific explanation, having to do with the causes of condensation. Volcanic fires are not far be neath the surface of the entire Naples littoral Vesuvius, which : impartially buried Pompeii, A D. 79. and Allied air fields in 1944. taps this reservoir of hot gases and molten rock. « So, probably, does Solfatara. nearby dormant Mt. Nuovo which witnesses said built itself to a height of 400 feet during three September days of 1538. and the Phlegraean Fields area containing the grotto of the Cumaean Sybil. This ancient soothsayer undoubt edly delivered her prophesies from behind a cloud of steam arising out of a fumarole long since dead but 1 remembered in mythology. No ('otmnon Chimneys But Vesuvius goes through its cataclysms, occurring usually at least once each dozen years, with out discernible effect on its neigh bors. which probably means there are no common chimneys from the fiery depths According to vulcanologists. enough safety valve fumarolcs on Vesuvius could make the mighty dealer of death a:, harmless as Solfatara. In the absence of funui loles. tremendous pressures an* corked up within and beneath the volcano by matter that starts ob structing the chimney immediately after each eruption and build up until they burst. General Delivers Package to P. F. C. HEADQUARTERS, 5th A F.. Ko rea—P.F.C. N. G. Baldwin's career m the marine corps is made—that's for certain.

Vanden berg met a man and his wife at a reception and mentioned that he was going to Korea. Considering it a remarkable ' coincidence that their son was serving there, the couple asked the general if he would mind dropping off a package for them for their son, Marine P F.C. Baldwin. The general as sented. When asked what was in the package by P F.C. Baldwin, the general smiled and said he wouldn't want to spoil a surprise. Baldwin said he bad never seen the general before except in pie- j tures Baldwin's home is in Minne apolis.
