Raymond Lindley, motel
owner, said this morning most
of the heavy fire damage is in
the storeroom and the Chart
Room. Smoke damage is
reported to the Neptune Room
and main dining room
The kitchen has been
damaged by both smoke and
water he said. The kitchen is
right below the heating closet of
the Chart Room. The Chart
Room and Neptune Room are
private dining rooms of the
motel.
The storeroom. Chart Room
and Neptune Room are on the
second floor while the kitchen
and main dining room are on
the first.
The motel is open for guests
today although dining facilities
are temporarily out of com-
mission. Motel officials said this
morning kitchen facilities are
expected to be repaired shortly.
Answering the call along with
Brownwood firemen were units
of the Bangs and Early fire
departments and members of
the Citizens Band Emergency
Unit.
According to John Mauney, a
member of the C. B. unit, smoke
created a big problem because
there were no windows in the
Chart Room which could be
opened to allow ventilation.
Although cause of the fire had
not been determined this
morning, Capt. McBride said a
faulty heating unit might have
started the fire. The heating
unit had been repaired only a
few days ago, he said.

Pleasant fall weather
returned throughout Texas
today.
While early morning temper-
atures again sagged into tie 30s
over the western and northern
sections, readings stood in the
40s to 60s elsewhere and skies
were cloudless throughout the
state
Brownwood had its first sub
40-degree reading of the fall
season today when the mercury
dipped to 37 degrees after
Tuesday's high reading of 65.
But' forecasters promised a
warmup with temperatures
climbing to the upper 70s or
lower 80s by Thursday af-
ternoon. Tonight's reading
should sag no lower than 45
degrees, the weatherman says.
Aside from a little warming
over the north half of Texas by
Friday and somewhat lower
temperatures in most areas
again by Sunday, forecasts
promised little change
Readings near dawn today
