| Description: | Disasters. A factory fire in Baltimore; Maryland; winter; must be very cold; as water from the hoses is frozen into icycles hanging off things. Back view of firemen on truck; pan up to stream of water from hose. CU; pan left past some firemen and "civilians" - firefighters drinking coffee or something else hot; from steaming cups; old man talking to firefighter. Titles mention that factory was on Paca st. in Baltimore; 7 injured; 80 girls rescued. GV fire; smoke billowing from building; other buildings in FG still o.k. -firemen stand on one of the near roofs. Another view of building with smoke pouring from it. Low ang US firefighter on ladder up against building. Shot in street where they have set up most of the equipment - great shot; really dramatic; hoses all over; ladders sticking up into sky; and jets of water also arch up; pan up to nothing but sky full of smoke. Good film of firemen at work; esp. from this era. | |
