FIRE IN EGMONDVILLE ;Blazing oil gave the Fire Brigade a run Tuesday afternoon for the se- cond time in the past few weeks. The Egnondville Garage was an inferno of burning oil that threatened to raze 'the frame building, until the firemen arnived with chemicals. F'latnes spread through a partition wall and across a few rafters, almost reaching .the out- side by the time assistance 'arrived. A car was suspended over the oil pit and owing to the fact that .the rear of the car had been wired to the tackle to prevent it slipping off, great diffi- culty was experienced in releasing it. Heavy boards were covering the oil pit except' at one end, otherwise the 'fire would have been more serious. Gasoline used for cleaning a car part, ignited by a blow torch, carried flames into the pit. The damage consisted of charred partition and ,rafters, rear window of the ,car broken by heat, and the car top slightly da'm'aged..
