Description

Firemen battle the three-alarm fire which swept TCU field house as huge clouds of smoke billow skyward. The field house which seated 1,800, was a total loss as hungry flames ate swiftly through the wooden structure which was built in 1926. The loss deprives the school of an on-campus basketball practice court.
