Damage from Fire
Not Yet Estimated
Alpha Fire Co. Chief George Miley said yesterday that
no estimate of damage has yet been placed on the fire which
gutted the home of Roy P. Matelski, professor of soil con
servation.
According to Miley, the blaze started in the Matelski
garage, in the vicinity of a trash
barrel at 1 a.m. yesterday. The
professor’s car, a late model 4-door
sedan, was completely destroyed.
From the garage the fire then
spread to the attic of the 1-story,
year-old-house, causing extensive
water damage to the living areas
and completely destroying the,
roof, Miley said.
Chief Miley irately denied
that there was a water shortage
at the scene of the blaze. He
explained that one of the pump
er trucks could not be started
due to a faulty battery. Until
the truck could arrive, Alphas
were forced to use a tanker to
use a tanker to keep boosters
running on the other trucks.
“When the pumper did come,
we were able to handle the fire,”
Miley said.
The volunteers were called at
approximately 1 a.m. when Mrs.
Matelski noticed the smoke. When
the firemen arrived the flames
had already spread to the attic.
The Alphas were hampered
throughout the blaze by ex
tremely heavy smoke and holes
were cut in the roof in an at
tempt to relieve it.
Firemen remained at the home
until 4 a.m. when the blaze was
completely extinguished.
