Twen- ty-two local firemen were over- come with smoke although only three of them were hospitalized. Chief of the Centereach Fire Department Jack R. Diefenbach said that his department got the alarm at 7:08 p. m. had the fire under control within an hour and had it out by approximately 10:50 p. m. "The building is still tl jere , " the chief said, "but it' s gutted , there ' s no doubt of that. " Over -*00—-<3e« tere a€h—firem»H— battle &i - the blaze with 12 pieces of equip- ' < ment.

Mr. Guiser was released from Mather Memorial Hosp ital , Tort Jeffer- son , yesterday and Chief Diefen- bach said he was told the other two will be released today. The cause of the fire , although not definitely determined by press time yesterday, could possibly hav e started in the electrica l sys- tem , according to the chief. Manager of the store , Victor De- Cerbo of Patchogue , who was in the building prior to the fire , ran across the street to call the fire department. He was not available for comment. A crowd of over 500 watched as the fireme n approached the nearly square building from each side. As the flames were diminish- ing a squad of oxygen-masked vamps entei'ed the building to start work from the inside-out. District manager for Miles Shoes. David Walman , yesterday said that the amount of fire loss had not been determined. He ad- ded that the building is less than two years old , but that he didn 't have the figures on the ori ginal cost. The blaze , one of the largest in recent years in Centereach , was preceded by about an hour and 15 minutes by another fire at Briggs Diner on Route 25. Then , during the shoe store fire , the department had to answer two ambulance calls. Baggy-eyed and tired after the all-night stand , Chief Diefenbach commended his men , adding his thanks to the police department for its help in handling traffic. He also expressed his relief that the fire did not claim any more serious injuries than the smoke poisoning. Centereach Firemen Battle Miles Shoe Store Blaze Tues.

Mr. Clark pointed out that "Since the hospital' s doors opened in August 1956" ., oyer 215, 000 patient days of service have been comp let- ed , with a total census of 32 , 006 patients.

However , according to Mr. Clark , "It seems that in hospital opera- tion as soon as you think you have solved the problem of pro- viding adequate beds for the needs of the community, the population experiences another increase and more than absorbs the new facil- ity.
