Flames Rae
HOTEL; | Dead
Dozens Injured
in Knoxville

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, March
8-(P)- At least one person
was burned to death and a doz-
en- others were hospitalized
with burns, some serious, in a
fire which swept through the
war-crowded three-story, Cum
berland hotel here early today.
Police Chief Elmer Dykes
said he believed several other
guests were trapped in the build
ing and were burned to death.
The one body which has been
recovered was burned beyond
recognition.
Night Clerk E. S. Peters said
he believed only about half the
$50 persons registered were in
their rooms when the fire was
discovered at 1855 a. m.
The hotel register was saved,
but it may be mid-morning be-
fore it is known how many per-
sons escaped since many guests
are war workers with night
jobs.
Firemen who fought the blaze
for two hours said they were
hampered by heat so intense
water yaporized before reach
ing the flames.
The fire burned out the sec
ond and third floors of the no.
tel and also damaged battery
shop and war plant employment
office in the building.
Ben Kennedy, partly paralyz-
cd hotel resident, was rescued
from the second floor by night
clerk Peters.

ONE MORE BATTLE
Continued from page sir

before he reached his stop. He didn't
want to tell Pat about his success,
didn't want to compete for her re-
spect. 1t would be like saying, Look,
darling, at the way / walk fences.
Sure. Willard Ames is the finest
brain surgeon in the state. Sure,
Miles Henshaw got the Pulitzer
Prize for his editorials. But look at
me, at James Field Maddox, who in
one day sold four million dollars
worth of insurance" After he'd told
her that, how could he know what
her smiles meant? Would they mean
love for him, or mere pride in his
success? In the end, he'd be COM

He glanced at the prosperous
homes lining the boulevard. DIR.
Willard Ames owned one of them,
large modern house in Handicapped

and Pat had been dinner guests
there the evening before. They'd
been younger than the Others -
younger than the brilliant surgeon
and his plain wife. younger than the
distinguished editorialist and his
plain wife, younger than the chemist
and the composer and the architect
and their plain wives.
Yet everybody had been pleasant
to him, and especially Willard Ames.
The doctors long. pointed face had
turned often in his direction. asking
him about the Normandy invasion,
seeking his opinion of the German
soldier, listening closely to every
thing he said. making intelligent
comments. Miles Henshaw had been
equally agreeable. He was bulky
man with a square jaw and deep-set
eyes, and he nodded his head like
friendly Buddha whenever Jim made
a point.
The only thing he hadn't liked
about the party was the way the
men clustered around Pat the min

of mass infatuation. They buzzed
around her like a swarm of bees,
offering compliments. making jokes.

make her smile. He was proud of the
way she held UP her end of the talk,
but he was irritated, too. He felt
that she welcomed attention. was
fattered by her circle of important
men. He'd found it hard to be tact
full on the way home. particularly
when Pat asked him what he thought
of the crowd.
THE men are okay." he conceded.
''but I should think at least one of
them could have found a good
looking wife"
They're your kind of men, Jim,"
she answered. That's why l want
ed you to meet them. I'm sorry the
women aren't beautiful, but they're
pleasant and l like them"
"You can afford to like them"
What do you mean?"
"They set you off very we'll"
