Blackfoot firemen spent a frigid night battling a blaze at the Parks Parrish artificial ice plant on 555 South Boardway. The fire started from a poorly built chimney about 1:40 a m and was doused by 8:30 a m. Most of the roof was destroyed and fire fed on two feet of sawdust insulation. Fire Chief Fred Vought praised eight firefighters and noted heavy conditions in four below zero weather.
