False fire alarm ties up Logan area firefighters
A Logan general fire alarm at Warner and North Sunday led to a swift response by firemen and police, but no fire was found. Investigations focus on the dial system and a caller describing a white house, with phones and onlookers blocking access during the false alert. A second silent alarm at Bumblebee Cottage north of Route 33 proved unnecessary as grass burning was controlled by Mrs. Fred Davis.
