$45,000 Loss As Fire Roars In Coaldale Theatre and Dwelling; 8 Firemen Downed in Icy Battle
(Lansford Evening Record, December 27, 1948)
A charred and twisted framework, enmeshed in a ghostly network of ice, is all that remains
of the Ritz Theatre, Coaldale, following a fire discovered at 1:30 o’clock yesterday morning.
Two adjacent homes were damaged as firemen from Lansford, Summit Hill and Tamaqua
joined the Coaldale volunteer company in a heroic three-hour effort that avoided a far more
serious conflagration. A dozen families in the immediate neighborhood stood tense guard
in their homes, hoping for the best but frequently doubtful that the entire block would not be razed.
