With 36 known dead, rescue work- ers today were tearing away the debris where laughter changed to shrieks of terror as an explosion wrecked the building last night, seeking 18 persons missing and thought to have perished beneath falling walls. Sixteen injured are in hospitals, many in a serious condition. The cause of the explosion has not been determined. It is believed that those listed as missing may be included among the unidentified dead. Fire followed almost immediately and destroyed three buildings before it was brought under control by volunteer bucket brigades assisting the fire department. Property loss Mr estimated between $100,000 and 50,000. Seventeen unidentified bodies are in two undertaking establishments. Many of the injured were picked Pome optician the blast. H.C. Allen, merchant, was blown 55 feet and found with ng legs broken and an arm torn of The intense heat of the fire and to- tal darkness, caused when the power plant was damaged, hindered rescu- ers.

The ground floor was a ge and motor car salesroom. icers to- meee investigating a report that a large gasoline storage tank, thought to have been under the - building, was the cause of the blast. The injured were picked up:in the streets or were taken from the win- dows of the upper story as the flames licked their way through the tottering walls. National guardsmen from the lo- cal unit were called out to assist in the rescue work and preserve order. Many Couples Dancing Thirty to 40 couples were dancing when the blast came. It was the regular Friday night dance of West- plains’ younger set. Am the. merrymakers were many the prominent young men and women of Westplains. At 11:30 the dance was at its height.
