The dry faucets were first dis

called from Arlington where he
was visiting. He drove to Hepp

In tho 12 degree weather
gauges froze on the fire truck
and hose was frozen stilt hy tne
time it could be drained and re
placed in the truck.
Because of the time of day,
most hospital patients slept
peacefully through the whole
operations, not realizing that for
at least a couple of hours they
couldn't have gotten a drink of
water if thev had wanted one.
The ereatest potential danger
was to the hospital's water heat
ing system which could possibly
have frozen if a constant cir
culation of water could not have
been retained. Water was not off
long enough, however, to en
danger the boilers.
