Fire Destroys Room at Local Theatre

Morgan County News, 2 September 1949, page 1
Morgan Fire department was called out early Saturday evening to extinguish a fire in the projection room at the Vallis theatre.

Before the fire equipment could be put into operation several railroad men who were across the track saw the blaze and rushed their large fire extinguishers to the scene, and with the aid of the volunteer firemen, the blaze was soon brought under control, but not before considerable damage was done to the projection room.

Workmen are busy repairing the damage and the management expects to have the theatre open by Sunday night.
