Scope and content
Members of the Central Washington Firemen's Association and the Auburn Fire Department pose in their life line uniforms on June 19, 1936. The hooks on the broad belts around their waists hook to the "life lines." The fireman can then climb up or slide down the life line. They are holding aloft Capt. Joe Cook of Seattle, the drill instructor. All of the firemen participated in the three hour demonstration of fire fighting techniques at the Stadium Bowl, held in conjunction with the Northwest Fire College in Tacoma.
