Firemen Save House , Medford , from Flames After a Long Fi ght A stubborn blaze Friday about 8 p. m. at the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Gathmann of Oregon avenue , Medford , called out the members of the Medford Fire Department , Inc., and of Company 2 , as well as depart- ments from the surroundin g villages of Farmingville , North Patchogue , which sent three pieces of apparatus , and Patchogue , which sent the En- gine company 500-gallon pumper. Apparently the fire started in the cellar near the furnace and it had quite a start before being discovered by a neighbor , John H. Peters. Mr. Gathmann and daughter Joyce were next door at the home of his parents , Mi- , and Mrs. Otto Gathmann ar\d Mrs. Gathmann was in Patchogue. The smoke was so thi ck that the firemen could not enter the house or cellar but had to fight the blaze throug h the cellar windows. After about two h ours it was under control and the damage resulting centered in the livirigroom and diningroom. The furniture in both rooms was damaged , and the walls were black- ened up and the plaster was cracked. Siif £ oik Republican By Enormous Figure.
