Area Fire Departmnt KeepBusy with Colis for Grassand OneMatress The warmer weather is certainly starting to dry things out as evident from response by Town of New- castle firemen to various grass fires over the weekend. The Bowmanville depart- ment was called Saturday morning to the Castle Hotel when a mattress was reported on fire at 7:47 ar. The mnattress had caught fireearlier in the morning, apparently from a cigarette, and had been remnoved from the top floor roorn to a nearby washroom where firemen found it in the tub, where it apparentiy had reignited. Last Wednesday, March 31, Bowmanvîlle firemen were despatched to the first house east of the Van Belle Gardens on Highway 2 west. The call was apparently turned in when a passerby saw smoke comning from the rear of the bouse. Fortunately, it was only coming from a low chimney, not visible from the roadway. On Saturday, firemen re- sponded to a small grass fire on Maple Grove Road at 3:15 p.m. and a second grass fire on the south bank of the CPR line near the Prospect Street bridge at 4:06 p.m. A faulty furnace motor at the Harvey Hall residence on Washington Street in Hamnp- ton required a service call at 1:10 arn. Sunday while an additional two grass fires sent the smokeaters to the swamp area on the east side of the Oshawa Townline south of Section grass fire season so far, their hast call having been a grease fire in the kitchen of the Rezso Hoffmann residence on the Golf Course Road. Village Fire Chief Fred Glanville reports there was little fire involved but esti- mates at least $200 damage as the hood above the stove was burned. The call was received at 1:45 p.m. on March 30. Firefighters from Orono were out twice on the week- end, both being grass fires, once Saturday about 2:35 p.m. behind Howard Bellamy's Barn and again on Sunday afternoon in the area of the Oshawa Gun Club.
