Len DeLeur is looking
for a place for his family
and himself to live follow-
ing a mid-winter blaze
‘which destroyed his Rood
|Avenue home at Harveys
Lake last week.
DeLeur is looking to
find homes in the Back
Mountain for his two
daughters, their husbands
and three grandchildren.
The family was left home-
less last Wednesday, Jan.
19, when their wood and
brick home was burned in
a fire of electrical origin.
“Originally, we thought
the cause was a dryer
vent,” explained DeLeur.
“But now we don’t think
so. We do know it was
something electrical.”
Harveys Lake Fire Chief
Richard Williams said the
blaze was first found
between the dryer and the
bathtub.
Shortly after the blaze,
friends, neighbors and
people who did not even
know the family started
coming forward with
clothing for the children
who had lost everything to
Premiums
The Veterans
Administration has an-
nounced that beginning
Jan. 1, United States
Life
Insurance (USGLI)
policyholders will no
longer be required to pay
premiums for their
coverage, according to
Harold T. Bushey,
director of the Pittsburgh
Regional Office. USGLI
policies were issued
generally to World War I
the flames. The DeLeur
children, and grand-
children affected by the
fire include: DJ and
Michael, baby boys, 18
and 24 months old; Tif-
fany, a size three; Candy
and Carol, daughters,
both size nine; son-in-law
Dan Harris, size 30-34;
and son-in-law Ron Fink,
size 33-33, large shirt.
DeLeur himself also had
his belongings go up in
flames. He wears a size 32
waist, short length and
medium or large shirt.
At home when the fire
broke out at 2:30 p.m.
were Candy and Carol and
the babies. The first sign
of trouble came when a
smoke alarm went off. As
the girls investigated its
cause they opened a bath-
room door and flames
shot out. The two women
grabbed up the babies and
ran to a neighbors. The
home in which they had
lived for 10 years,
proceeded to burn until
the: entire inside was
ruined.

from
Harveys Lake and Kunkle
responded to the call in
below freezing tem-
peratures. Firefighting
efforts were hampered by
bitter cold winds, and the
situation was complicated
by the need to return to
the scene at 8:30 that
evening in even worse
weather conditions.
Williams said hose freeze
ups were a problem,
especially during the
second flare up.
Approximately 30 fire-
fighters were on the scene
during the original blaze
and the call back.
Williams said the house
had initially beeen a
trailer which DeLeur had
remodeled into a one-
story home. False walls,
created by the remodeling
and an excellent in-
sulating job added to the
firemen’s woes. ‘He had
done a very good job
remodeling and adding
on, but the eight to 10
inches of insulation made
it tough to fight the
blaze,’ he said. ‘Between
that and the bitter winds,
we were lucky to get it
under control the second
time.”
DeLeur estimated the
value of the house at
approximately $50,000.
This does not, however,
include its contents. ~
He has decided to bull-
doze the two-family
dewelling and start anew.
His first priority, how-"™
ever, is finding homes for
those members of his
family who are now
staying with friends and
neighbors. Anyone who
can provide an apartment
for the two families can
reach DeLeur at his place
of business on Memorial
Highway, Back to Basics.
