SPECIAL TOPICS: DISCUSSION

Mr. E. E. Davis: The speaker had a number of hydrants that needed expanding, and concluded that the best thing to do would be to take them out and put in new nozzles. The nozzles were 2-inch; the fire department asked for 2§-inch. The best that could be done was to make the nozzles 2| inches; at the same time we bought a die and ran it over them to be sure that they were all right. The threads were made to conform to the requirements.
