Photograph used for a story in the Oklahoma City Times newspaper. Caption: "Billowing Black Smoke covered vast areas of Oklahoma City Tuesday night as the Rounds and Porter Co. warehouse, 853 NW 2, was consumed by a four-alarm fire. A brisk south wind sent heavy smoke over the entire northwest section of the city. Construction materials stored in the building provided the fuel for the raging inferno. Firefighters battled the blaze nearly three hours before they were able to enter the building and get at the heart of the fire. The picture at left shows an aerail ladder being used to throw water on top of the blaze. At right, smoke billows above the blaze. Firemen were still at the scene late wednesday morning."
