| 38 M e THE EVENIN( THREE ARE INJURED ASBULDINESCRASH - No One Is Killed in Collapse at Montgomery, With Loss Put at $175,000. By the Associated Press. MONTGOMERY, Ala, July 16— No casualties were apparent today ! from the collapse of two mercnnme establishments. The workers, however, | continued taking away the debris to| guard against a chance that any one was entombed in the wreckage. Several persons were injured, only three serfously, and properly damage | estimated at $175,000 was caused by the collapse of the {wo bulldings housing the Bullock Shoe Co. and the Pizitz- Smolian Department_Store. ! Between 75 and 100 persons were in | the buildings when the walls buckled | and collapsed yesterday noon, but | enough warning was given of the m,-‘ pending collapse that the majority of | them were able to reach safety. The seriously fiijured were George Degruchy and two colored employes. } Witnesses said there were two sepa- | rate crashes and that during the in- terval between the two pedestrians and police officers rushed into the buildings | and brought others to safety. city and county officials into the cause of the collapse. i The two buildings adjoined a vacant | lot where excavation work was in prog- ress. It was at first thought tha workmen employed in the excavatio work might have been trapped, but th fear was alleviated somewhat when search of the debris through the night | failed to reveal any bodies.
