Mr. & Mrs. Gilbert Tracy, cus¬ todians of the United Church of Christ Congreg:ation8d were con¬ fronted early Monday morning with one to three inches of water standing on the floors of the Church Social Hall and Education¬ al Rooms when thcy^^ne to open the building for the lH|tc kinder¬ garten class. Somehow a kitchen faucet had been left running into a stoppered kitchen sink the night before and had poured water over nearly all the upper floor and this had run down into the basement classrooms where it stood three in. deep in places.
A crew of church trustees, school custodians and church teachers .soon had scooped out most of the water thus keeping the floor tile intact. Most of the dam¬ age w;)s done to kindergarten sup¬ plies and the church nursery and study rugs.
