Neighbors “Save Six From Fire on East

By HEZE CLARK Six persons—two of them children—were saved from fiery deaths early today by neighbors who helped them down ladders from the second floor of a blazing East Side building. The rescuers stamped out flames that already were

licking at the ladders they hauled from the two-story brick and concrete building at E. 10th and Ewing Sts. Saved from their apartments above two ground-floor stores

‘were:

Wallace Roller, 28. Della Roller, his wife, 23. Stanley Roller, their son, 4. Sharon Constable, 12, daughter of a friend and staying temporarfly with the Rollers. Henry Pulliam, 30, Helen Pulliam, his wife, 30. Heroes—and heroine—of the rescue were: Dr. 8. iL. Hall, 3605 E. 10th St. a dentist; hic wife, and Roy Shepherd, 3609 E, 10th St. Mrs. Hall heard the screams of the trapped péople, awakened her husband and phoned the fire department. Brought Own Ladder Dr. Hall rushed across the street and pulled a burning ladder from beneath the wooden stairway—where the fire -started= on the Ewing St. side of the burning building. He stamped out flames flicker ing along four or five feet of the ladder. Meanwhile, Mr, Shepherd came running with his own ladder. The men raised both ladders to second floor windows, and Dr. Hall returned to the blazing stairway for a third ladder. It also

Indiana took steps today. to solve a water shortage at the Muscatatuck State School and the cities of Vernon and Norty Vernon. Gov. Schricker sald a proposal ‘to build a 190-acre lake for a 670-million-gallon water reservoir would be presented to the state budget committee shortly, The Governor said duting dry

“They have short of water during the late summer months for a number of! years,” the Governor said. He said the lake would be 10cated on Brush Creek, which empties into the Muscatatuck River. Under the proposal, the state iwould build a dam at a cost of about $160,000 and sign a contract with North Vernon for an annual payment to the state for additional water, ' Vernon gets its water supply

mile away. Gov. Schricker said the reservoir would provide the school with at least 1.5 million gallons a day and North Vernon with 2.7 million a day. He added it would “bring about a better dilution of treated sewage.”
