Two Monroe Firemen Hurt Testing Fire Suits
Monroe Fire Chief Charles Roddy reports two captains from the Monroe Fire Department suffered minor burns while testing newly purchased fire fighting suits. Capt. J. N. Free, of 1613 South Rth Street, was treated at St. Francis Hospital for facial burns and possible smoke inhalation. Capt. Raymond Sutton, of 610 Wilmuth Street, was treated and released for minor finger burns. A sharp wind funneled flames under Free’s hood and into Sutton’s gloves during a fuel-fire test, described as a one in a million accident.

A fire six miles west of Darnell destroyed two houses owned by Roy Bible and slightly damaged a third. Fire Chief Garland Traxler said the blaze began when Bible attempted to light a new butane heater with gas already on. No loss estimates were provided. Most barley and oats in Alberta are fed to livestock.
