They tore the telephone from the wall and fled on foot. Mrs. Gooderham, once cho- sen one of Toronto's best- dressed women, broke out of the closet and from a window asked a chauffeur across the street to call police. George Hockley, chauffeur for Neil J.

Two Big Fires Hit Calgary During Night - CALGARY (CP) -- The fifth and sixth serious blazes in Cal- gary in just over two months struck the city overnight, de- stroying a $1,400,000 private citb and a central four-storey business block. Firemen were called at 11 p.m. to a three-alarm blaze at the exclusive Glencoe Club in South Calgary, then split their numbers at 1:45 am. and joined other units answering a four-alarm call sounded for a building, less than a block from the city's main intersection. There was only one injury. A fireman broke an ankle when he jumped from the second floor of the Glencoe Club. Damage in the downtown fire was not immediately estimated. It broke out in the basement of the 58-year-old building, then spread through a first - floor restaurant and shop and three floors occupied by a secretarial chool. The fire was just three blocks from the' scene of two fires that struck Nov. 29 and Dec. 9. Seven persons died in the Nov. 29 destruction of a business- apartment building. Witnesses said the Glencoe Club fire came after a flash of light and a "'great bail of 'fire"' in a stairwell beside the kitchen. The club contained a dining room, lounge and bowling alleys in its two-storey section, and eight sheets of curling ice, a skating rink, badminton courts and a coffee shop in the rest of the building. "It was the third fire we've had in six weeks," said Glencoe President Bob_ Borland. "There's nothing yet to indicate it was deliberately set, but we get the impression they can't all have been accidental."

Loss was estimated unofficially at ,000. J. O. Anderson of Brockville, who was in the room next to where the fire started, said he heard a lot of yelling and thought somoene was having a nightmare.
