ened yesterday afternoon by a

on the Fourth street side of
the court. No damage was

Jinx Week The week begin

few years. A year ago today,
on June 30, the Medford Ice

red, inflicting damage estimat
ed at $40, COO. Several fire
men were overcome by am

terday firemen crossed their
fingers and hoped the public

of fire hazards for the next
week at least.
