Another nerve wracking scene
was a car which drove south
down the main street and I am
sure the fire truck and police
were moving at the time as they
followed this car. The light was

the car to move. By now the fire

had one clear way to go — to the

the truck were shaken up.
This car could have easily
made a right turn and, gotten
clear of the intersection before
the fire truck was forced to have
to look out for things like this
occuring.
Since Thursday, I have tried
to think of a way to keep the
intersection clear of traffic. This
is a suggestion which might help.
Is it not possible for a few
business men on each street,
who do not go on the truck to
leave their stares and stop
traffic. I don't think a customer
would be lost if he had to wait a
few minutes longer in a case of
fire. There is more than one
person in almost all stores to
look after things.
Perhaps a man or two on
Highway 4 at the corner at the
Supertest Station could stop the
traffic from the north. The
south traffic could be stopped at
