itt lnU)t l M CmJlJ COIM ttV U04UH0ut{( The night of October 14, 1963, will be burned deep into the memory of every Monmouth College student, for on that night three fires were set within a three-hour period. The first alarm was set at 1 1 p.m., the last at 2 a.m. Targets were the Monmouth Lum- ber Company, the Fullerton Lumber Company, and the Metal Culvert Company. College students were aroused from bed and from their studies by the alarms. Soon townspeople came by to pick up students to take them to the sites of the fires and to guard the hospital, nursing home, and other places threatened to be leveled by the mad arsonist. Women students could not help being sucked in by the pandemonium, as the radio station was off the air and they could see several different flames from the upper stories of their dorms. The Green Army was hastily mobilized to guard the Monmouth campus. At 3 :30 in the morning, given special permission, WRAM signed on the air to try to calm the panic-stricken town. Following more threats by the arsonist, owners of businesses hired college students to guard their establishments during the nig ht. The arsonist announced that Wednesday night he was going to set more fires, and the FCC granted station WRAM permission to stay on the air all night. News of the fire spread and was featured on Huntley-Brinkley and most newspapers across the country. Even Monmouth students in Europe heard of the fires !
