ment arrived.#
The orgin of the fire was un
known. There was no stove in
the room; Mrs. Ingram had been
in it earlier in the day cleaning
it, and used a kerosene heater
then, but took it from the room
when she finished.
Damage was confined mainly
to the hallway wall of the room,
which was badly burned. No in
surance was said to be carried. J
There was some confusion over
the fire signal. The first two
blasts of the customary five were
of such long duration that many
thought it was the new evacua
tion signal. The automatic switch
did not funcion properly and
was immediately repaired.
Tb$urc will be a meeting of the
CiviYDcfense Corps in the Le
gion hall at 7 p. m. Sunday.
Cliff Sumerlin, city patrol
man, was admitted to the Griffin
Memorial hospital this week for
observation and treatment.
