Guy M. Nick of the Tacoma Fire Department sat aboard a fire engine surrounded by a trio of Tacoma cuties in this publicity photo for the Firemen's Ball, held Nov. 20, 1935 in the Century Ballroom. The women are: (l to r) Neah Price, Elizabeth Thomas and Blanche Cerino. This was the first Ball held in several years and the proceeds went to fund the Firemen's College held in Tacoma in 1936. At the "college", officers and firemen from Montana, Idaho, Oregon, Washington and Canada gathered to exchange ideas and receive instruction in the newest methods of fire fighting. (T.
