Mrs. Robert Drake, about 45, was listed in serious condition at Mercy Hospital here with severe face and arms burns suffered when the fire erupted at her house about 2 a.m. today. Charles Drake, 11-year-old son of Mrs.

Drake, was downstairs at the time of the fire. He suffered burned feet and his hair was singed from the flames, firemen said. Two other sons of Mrs. Drake were sleeping in an upstairs bedroom when the fire broke out. They could not reach the stairs leading to the ground floor because of the fire.

A neighbor of the Drakes, John Chambers, an 18-year-old high school dropout, spotted the two boys in the upstairs bedroom as he was driving home from work at the RCA plant in Marion. Chambers, who quit Elwood High School two weeks ago to go to work, drove his old model car beneath the window and shouted for the boys to jump on its top. Neither youth was hospitalized. The elder, Robert Drake 16, a member of the Elwood High School basketball team, was treated for arm cuts received when he smashed the window. The other youth, John Drake, 13, escaped injury.
