A fire in a Jacksonville (Fla.) hotel (Hotel Roosevelt) Sunday took the lives of 21 persons and injured 60 others. The fire broke out in a first floor ballroom, spreading choking black smoke through the 13 story building. Occupants, unable to use the hallways, put their heads out the windows to avoid the dense smoke. Bed sheets were used to escape from rooms.Collection
