“Ex-Wrestling Champ Dons His Firefighting Suit, Douses Raging Blaze in Minutes Flat,” Toronto Star. March 24, 1942. Page 3. ---- GOLLY, WHAT’S THIS? It’s a one-man fire brigade. Eugene Hurtubise of Peterboro is the man, the contraption he invented is the brigade. At the turn of a tap, water gushed from five fog nozzles and a hand hose in the suit. A hose to a water-main supplies the water, another to a machine brings in air. He spent two years making the firesuit.

SO HEAVY is the fire and waterproof suit it’s slipped over the head from a cord on an overhead pulley. Demonstrating it, the inventor walked into a raging inferno, had the flames out in a minute and a half. He swore he felt cold while standing in the midst of the fire.

RESCUING PEOPLE is the main idea, says Hurbubise, former Canadian heavy-weight wrestling champion. He he lifts Emmett Kylie up to his own height - six foot, three.

THE FIRESUIT IN ACTION, the flames meet their match. The nozzles are on the head, both his shoulders, at back and front of the waist. The demonstration ave Hurtubise at least one idea for improving the suit - a windshield wiper for the face. Firefighting officials termed the show a complete success.
