Mack and Ralph, two city fire horses, were traded to Youngstown for two days. The fire committee bought the pair to use with the Central ladder truck. Chief Frank J. Connery and Councillors P. K. Fike and J. C. McCready arranged the deal. The horses arrived last night and are being trained. The new team, though lighter than the previous grays, is faster and should improve response times on drills.
