Remains of the auditorium. The fire could not be controlled by the local fire companies, and aid was summoned from many outlying communities including Burlington, Florence, Florence Station, Roebling, Crosswicks, White Horse, Allentown, and Ham- ilton Township. lt was long after 6:00 P. M. before these fire fighters left the smoldering ruins. A large part of the second floor and all of the auditorium were completely destroyed. The books in the library were water swollen and useless. All class rooms on the first floor were water soaked and smoky, but not greatly damaged. Many of the wraps were saved and returned to the students. Those whose be- longings were destroyed received speedy compensation. The entire loss was estimated at 3B140,000. The building will be reconstructed as soon as possible. Because of the war and priorities, the plans for rebuilding have been hampered. It is hoped that the school, with many improvements added, will be ready for occupancy in the late fall. kkeeping room before complete destruction. In memoriam of departed glory.

Ig X '-...Agri R Chemistry laboratory about to go! 140, 000 Hzgb School Fira December 7, 1941, the date of the Pearl Harbor catastrophe, is probably the only date in our memories that overshadows January 9, 1942. On this latter date at 1:10 P. M., a fire, starting in the rafters, was discovered in our high school. While an alarm was being sounded, teachers directed the evacu- ation of seven hundred pupils from the school. The students filed out in an orderly manner, and confusion was at a minimum. The wraps of the students had been left in the school as the lockers were not easily accessible. It was near zero weather, and the pupils stood shivering in the cold until they were instructed to go to the nearby Catholic Church. VW, V N ansa. Flames over our school. Claiming coats.
