In line with Fire Prevention
Week, Oct. 3-9, Back Mountain
Firemen’s Association spon-
sored a fire-training session
Monday night at Lehman
horseshow grounds. Demon-
strations of proper procedures
using dry-powder-type and
foam-type extinguishers were
given for volunteer fighters
rom all companies in the Back
Mountain area.
~ Harold Coolbaugh, president
of the organization, warned that
there are fire hazards even in
the best-kept homes. The living
room was the starting place for
b
37 percent of last year’s 618,000
fires in homes.
To help eliminate the
devastation of home fires,
firemen urge a room-by-room
investigation of common
trouble spots, and offer this
check list as a guide:
Living room—Make sure that
all ashtrays are made of non-
combustible materials and
shaped to prevent cigarettes
from rolling off the edge. Never
leave matches where children
can reach them. Cigarettes and
matches were the chief causes
of building fires during 1970.

Allow plenty of space between
the TV set and curtains or furni-
ture. Replace frayed electric
cords, broken plugs and
cracked electrical outlets.
Install a tight metal screen in
front of a fireplace.
Kitchen—Avoid overloading
electrical circuits. Since in-
creasing usage of appliances
requires up-to-date electrical
outlets, have an expert inspect
your wiring if you live in an .
older home.
Keep curtains, towel racks
and waste containers at a safe
distance from the stove.
Wipe up grease spills im-
mediately—they are highly
flammable. Always detach the
cord from the electrical outlet
when finished using an ap-
pliance. Check for combustible
warnings on labels of household
cleaners, and keep them away
from the stove or heaters.
Bedroom—Never smoke in
bed. Don’t hang paper posters,
fishing nets or other flammable
decorator items over the bed or
doorways where they can
create a fiery trap. Keep closets
and other out-of-the-way places
free from rubbish.
Attic—Throw out stacks of old
newspapers, outgrown clothing
and other ‘‘treasures’’ that have
accumulated over the years.
Basement and utility area—
Keep trash in covered metal
cans. Have the furnace cleaned
and checked regularly by
professionals. Don’t overload
workshop machinery. Use only
explosion-proof electrical
equipment when working near
flammable liquid vapors or
dusts. Keep work area un-
cluttered.
Garage—Store paints, var-
nish and flammable liquids in
tightly closed metal con-
tainers—never glass—and keep
only small amounts of gasoline
and kerosene on hand.
The total fire loss in 1970 was
an estimated $2,800,000,000, but
more important, more than
12,500 lives were lost. :

Police Seek
Yellow Car
The driver of a “yellow car”
is being sought by Jackson
Township police for allegedly
showing young children obscene
photographs Saturday after-
noon.
Police Chief Robert Cooper
was told by a township mother
that her daughter was playing
in their front yard with some
friends when the alleged in-
cident took place. The children,
who were in the 7 to 10 age
group, were given the pictures
by someone in a yellow car. The
children tore up the photo-
graphs and then reported to the
girl’s mother. She, in turn, in-
formed the police.
Investigation is continuing,
said Chief Cooper.
