Gas Blast Wrecks Home— Injures Six
Six men were burned, four necessitating hospitalization, in a gas blast and fire that wrecked the $20,000 home of J. Russell Terpening, E. Lake Rd., Owasco, N. Y.
The cause of the blast was not immediately determined but was believed to have been due to striking of a match when there was an accumulation of gas in the cellar of the house. All injured men were engaged in the installation and hookup of a gas burner in the basement, it is reported. None of the victims was critically injured.
