HOME DAMAGED
BY SMOKE, FIRE
cigarette ash accidentally
dropped in a closet.
Damage was set by Chief
Chuck Kimberling at
$4,000. Most was smoke
damage. The Nutone smoke
alarm in the house had
functioned properly and even
though the cover was badly
deformed by the intense
heat, it still worked when
tested after the fire.

The Manetamers defeated
the RRR Women 11 to 4
in softball Sunday afternoon
at the Colony, leaving them
still tied for first place in

the second. Then the Mane-
tamers jumped ahead 4 to
2 in the third. The fourth
inning ended with the Mane-
tamers on top 6 to 2, and
in the fifth 8 to 2. The
Manetamers scored three
more runs in the sixth, and
RRR scored their final two
runs in the seventh.
Sue Cly was the winning
