A blazing general alarm fire at the state hospital in St Louis killed two women patients and threatened more than 1,000 others.

One more woman, 67 year old Mrs Sally Turpen, died after collapsing in the cafeteria. Firefighters prevented a larger disaster as the blaze began on the third floor linen closet and spread rapidly through a nine bed room. The hospital complex houses about 2,600 patients across nine city blocks.
