$50,000 FIRE HITS WATERTOWN MOVIE.

Watertown, Wis. — (UP) — A fire which raged out of control for more than an hour ravaged the Savoy theater today, damaged offices above it and scorched an adjoining hardware store.
One fireman was overcome by smoke. Fire Chief Al Lindy estimated the total loss at more than $50,000.
The fire started in the theater. The front of the Kusel Hardware next door was scorched. Smoke swirled through the National Bank building on the other side of the theater but did no damage.
