Three Lives Lost With
Many Injured When Fire
Destroys Dance Pavilion
Participants In Marathon
Contest At Hampden,
Me-, Flee Outside Into
Bitter Gale
tBy Associated PRESS,


HAMPDEN, Maine, Dec.
1.-THE gay and stormy
history of Hampden's mara
thon dancing contest has
ended in tragedy.
A fire breaking out late
last night while a blizzard
howled outside the pavilion,
and footsore contestants
rested on their cots, cost the
lives of at least three, and
injury to many more.
From the blazing para
disc of the dance hall where
they had plodded many
weary weeks amid applause
and cheers of supporters, the
thinly clad dancers fled into
the biting gale.
They forgot prizes for
which they had struggled
as they plunged knee deep in
snow drifts piled high by a
30-hour storm.
Pajama clad young men
and women bare foot, and
many Of them painfully
burned, miiled about in the
drifting snow and near zero
temperature seeking part
ners and friends.
The charred bodies of
three were found in the
ruins today. The victims
were all men.
The origin Of the blaze
was undetermined. and sew
eral survivors believed the
chimney of the pavilion top
pied by the storm, and the
building ignited from the
hot air heating plant.
