Residents of the apartment, located near the downtown area of the city, were aroused by firemen and stood in halls while two fire companies fought the stubborn blaze. Battalion Chief A Anthony said fire damage was confined to a room occupied by the apartment janitor. Cause of (he blaze has not yet been determined. Thick smoke blanketed the apartment area at the height of the blaze. Firemen awakened residents when it was feared that sleeping persons would be overcome by smoke if the fire spread.

Anthony praised quick work by firemen in keeping the fire contained. "They did a good job on what could have been a very bad fire," Anthony said. The fire official also credited the apartment sprinkler system with helping to control the fire. An investigation is under way today, according to Anthony.
