Hyattstown 7 Residence Damaged
Firemen battled a house blaze on U.S. 353 near Hyattstown for nearly three hours after the first alarm at 10:30 AM. The 10 to 12 room weatherboard farmhouse, owned by a Bethesda real estate man and tenanted by the Harry Ruby family, was reported likely doomed. Fire spread from a faulty oil heater, with efforts focused on preventing spread to nearby farm buildings as water was drawn from two small streams. Ruby was in the field when smoke appeared and reentered to find flames in the chimney area.
