Five Children, One Woman
Burn to Death as Flames
Sweep Houston Apartment
HOUSTON, Tex., Jan. 14 UP)
Five children and a woman were
burned to death and two other
occupants were burned, one
critically, in a fire late last night
which spread swiftly through a
two-story, frame four-apartment
building.
The entire family of Earl A.
Glass, 29, shipfittcr at Brown
shipyard, perished while he was
at work. He didn't learn about
the death of his wife. Ruby Jane,
and their three children, Betty
Jane, 4, Benny Earl, 3, and Billy
Wayne nine months, until he re
turned from work this morning
and found the charred ruins.
M. F. Gofortti, another ship
yard worker, was at the bed-
side of his sick father, G. M. Go-
forth In Dallas last night when
his two babies, Jane, eight
months old, and Ann, two years
oldL perished in the blazo and
his-wife,-25, escaped from the
second, story apartment with
critical burns.
Identification of Mrs. Glass
and her three children was not
established until Glass returned
from work and viewed the bod
ies.
Mrs. Glass and the baby, Billy
Wayne, and the little boy, Benny
Earl, appeared at a second story
window engulfed in flames in a
vain bid for help.
O. L. Roberts, fireman, told
of how near they were to escape.
"I had laid a lndder against
a : corner of the second story
porch, Robert said.
"I saw the woman break glass
out of a - window and shove a
small boy through it onto , the
porch. His clothes were burning
and the little fellow was fright
ened. He was burning all over,
'.'Then the woman crawled
through the window,, holding the
little baby in her arms. The baby
was also in flames. Suddenly
as the . woman, crawled through
the; window, her. knees bent and
she . dropped . the . baby on the
floor and collapsed in a corner,
engulfed In flames. . .
'The little boy,, almost in arms'
reach of me but burning from
his toes to the top of his head,
turned and ran back into the
house through the door.
"There I was stundlng on the
ladder. I could have almost
reached out and touched them,
but still I could not save them.
ina nnni wna rppni p. -i nn Mrs
wes burning all over the porch.
If the little boy had run over
to the bnnlster where I was, he
might hnve been saved."
America's youth means to get
on with the war job and help
finish it to clear the road to
other and more Important ends
which our American democracy
has In view. President Everett
