Fierce Forest Fire Menaced Big Tract
A major forest fire north of Port Allegany scorched about 300 acres of second growth timber near the Heinemann estate. McKean County crews battled the blaze for three days, with 16 firefighters and added borough volunteers restraining the flames. Other fires burned nearby, threatening a ridge near Ridgway and the Lowa Berinsly area, but the hospital in town was saved as fire crews fought to contain the spread.
