Near the bottom of the front page is a two column heading: "Five Firemen Killed, 11 Hurt in Engine Upset; Malvern (Pa.) Victim's Father Dies of Shock" (see) First report coverage on the Malvern Fire Company disaster in Pennsylvania. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 56 pages, light toning at the margins, a little spine wear, generally nice.
