Fire Chief John Carlisle is establishing what he hopes will be a model system for maintaining and recharging fire extinguishers. He notes that local extinguisher companies and various factories have assisted in setting up the program according to latest procedures recommended by the National Board of Fire Underwrit. ers. Among the First When the system begins functioning, Corpus Christi will become one of the first cities of its size in the country to handle its own fire extinguisher service, Carlisle said. Up to now.
each city division has been responsible for acquiring and paying for maintenance of its own extinguishers.

The new program will be aimed at standardizing city -owned fire extinguishers. Central Records Central records will be maintained at the extinguisher service center being established at Central Fire Station. A complete history of each extinguisher will be kept.
A regular inspection and maintenance schedule will be put into effect. Fire extinguishers will be assigned to various city divisions on the basis of the type and size needed by each particular one's activities. Carlisle said all extinguishers will be kept up to rigid standards or will be junked if they fail come up to his level. He noted that fire extinguishers can be dangerous if not properly maintained and serviced. City firemen will be assigned to extinguisher maintenance and service on a rotating basis.
They will be trained by experienced personnel who have been spending much time during the past six months in learning methods and procedures. This instruction has included several visits to factories manufacturing extinguishers. Carlisle said the savings produced by city maintenance of its own extinguishers should provide sufficient funds for setting up a training program to teach all city employes how to properly use the fire-fighting devices.
