Four Thousand Children Named Fire Marshals in Waterloo
Four thousand Waterloo students from kindergarten to seventh grade were named fire marshals by Chicago fire clown Harry Woggers during a city wide fire prevention inspection led by the State Fire Prevention association. The program stressed keeping matches and fires out of children’s reach and proper attic and closet cleaning. Sixty inspectors from the association joined local firemen for a citywide survey of buildings, with reports sent to the association and fire chief. The free service enlists volunteers who fund their own expenses, and follow up will ensure recommendations are implemented.
