Newscopy: "NOW A CIVIC LATHER... -- Spewing foam like a brewery, the controversial new Civic Center fountain went on a detergent kick today to the amazement of Mrs. Betty Earl, 1617 Pine st., and her son, Steven. The detergent was dumped mysteriously into the fountain between midnight and 7 a.m.; when water was turned off. It foamed up to a height of three feet when the fountain was turned on again. Firemen (below) used hoses to sluice foam off to protect the filters and pumps. News-Call Bulletin Photograph."
