They reportedly battled the blaze about three and a half hours to prevent Ihe fire spreading to nearby homes. Chief Hiteshue said it is suspected Ihe second fire "was set."

In a letter to Lester W. Kochler. village solicitor. County Engineer Stanley M. Perin said.

"We are in the process of analyzing the and preparing plans for the replacement of the deck and remodeling the superstructure to handle full loading. "Of course, the feasibility of i remodeling will depend on the results of the structural analysis." The county engineer said at the same time, his office is considering the possibility of placing a walk i pedestrian) on the outside of the truss of the bridge, provided that by remodeling Ihe superstructure, it will be capable of handling this extra weight. "As you are aware," Perin wrote Koehler, "the bridge has been posted with a load limit, because the deck is in substandard condition and is nol capable of carrying the H-15 loading for which the superstructure was designed. "The remodeling plans call for the superstructure to handle full loading which is HS-20-44." Perin said as to the question of enforcement of Ihe load limit on the bridge, i is i a i a responsibility of the village a Perin for the construction of a pedestrian walk along the outside of the bridge but the county engineer at that time told council it was not feasible. Early last month, a portion of the bridge deck gave way causing repair crews to patch up the hole.

(AP) Two weeks after the mudslide began on Sanctified Hill, federal money and manpower are on hand to help the victims. Mayor Darrell Roberts said Wednesday that the Office of Economic Opportunity has set aside $10,000 for the 89 evacuees "to draw upon for paying rent, food, clothing or whatever else they might need." In addition, two representatives of the Office of Emergency Preparedness arrived from Atlanta to collect information on the slide which started down the hill Dec. 14. "They're taking pictures and surveying tne area," the mayor reported. However, another federal agency came in for criticism from an aide to Gov.

Wendell Ford for not responding quickly to the Cumberland situation. The aide, Ron Johnson, said the governor has twice asked the Department of Housing and Urban Development for mobile homes to house the evacuees. The only response, Johnson said, was an acknowledgement that the first request was received. "The governor's position is that it is a disaster for the people involved whether a great cross-section of people is affected or not," the aide said. Roberts estimated the mud was moving about five inches every 24 hours and said 17 houses and the Driver license exam station closed today ap- for WHAT IS A CHRISTIAN SCIENCE PRACTITIONER?

Lt. Jack Walsh, Post 9 commander, announced that the Hamilton exam station was closed today by order of Gov.

Macedonia Baptist Church have been damaged so far. "These houses are about to tilt over and drop to the bottom of the hill," Roberts said, adding that the city was attempting to find a heavy equipment operator who could stretch cable around the dwellings to prevent further movement. The mayor also announced the evacuees will have first priority on obtaining space in a housing project now under construction. Some families were quartered there temporarily but now have been placed in private residences. The city also is seeking an emergency declaration from the Federal Housing Administration.

If it is granted, Roberts said, "each disposed family would get $5,000 free and would be able to borrow more money at one per cent interest to help them rebuild."
