Fire checks to resume
By LUCY SMITH Staff Writer
Inspections of campus buildings by the State Fire Marshal's Office will resume today. Five inspectors, who last week started work on the annual inspection, will inspect buildings and residence halls this week.
After going over last week's inspection reports, Bill Shelton of Wichita, head field inspector, said, "All the buildings are in good shape. I did not see too many major violations in any buildings. There were enough violations to put down on paper."
Shelton said that because the inspection was a yearly one, the buildings were considered to be in excellent condition.
He said most of the code violations were simply poor maintenance.
Shelton told that he had planned to inspect Hoch Auditorium Thursday after Clark Brubaker, deputy state fire marshal, found major violations in the Kansas fire prevention code, but that he had run short of time.
Shelton is to reinspect Hoch tomorrow.
SHELTON HAD said the number of people using Hoch for classroom purposes would determine how stringently the codes would be enforced.
Bruhnaker inspected Hoch Tuesday and found what he considered fire hazards, including excessive amounts of storage in the basement and on the fourth floor and in offices on the third floor.
The fourth floor balcony has only one exit and the door opens inward rather than outward and has a lock. The state code calls for a locking mechanism with the flow of exit and do not have locks.
Other buildings inspected last week were Flint, Wescoe, Strong, Blake, Spooner-Thayer and Strong Halls; Spencer Museum in Bloomington; Art Vaults Building; and Memorial Stadium.
Brubaker said that he would request that a smoke alarm system be installed on the house.
NO MAJOR VIOLATIONS were found in any of the buildings, Shetton said, although Memorial Stadium had an excessive number of hazardous items stored on the main level.

Official predicts inspection delay
By NANCY DRESSLER
An annual fire inspection of buildings at the KU Medical Center campus probably will be delayed until semester break, according to a recent report, technical adviser to the state fire marshal.
Markley said Saturday that the inspections at the Med Center had been scheduled to take place last week but were expected to upcoming holiday breaks for state schools.
"We would like to get a couple of colleges done before the holidays," Markley said. "In the past, we've inspected schools over the summer when fewer people were around, but we get a different picture of how students are treated in the schools are occupied by the students."
Markley said it probably would be welcome to have a team of inspectors visit the Med Center.
THE 'UNIVERSITY of Kansas and State University are the two schools the fire marshal hopes to inspect before Christmas, the institution of KU's buildings began last week.
He said that the later date would allow companies to build under construction in the Med Center.
A $25 million clinical facility with a new biased hospital is now under construction and will be open in September.

Markley said the hospital at the Med Center campus usually had been in reasonable compliance with fire regulations.
"Most of the problems we'll see are ones we've seen before," he said.
A TEAM of six to eight men headed by Bill Shelton, a field inspector from Wichita, will take about a week to inspect the Med Center's facilities.

"ALL INSPECTION reports are to be reviewed first by Russell Collins, chief deputy fire marshal, in Topeka. Markley wrote that he was not present over the reports, they would be made public."
Recommendations for corrections in order of priority then will be submitted by the fire marshal to the Kansas Board of Regents, Markley said. The Regents must go to the Kansas Legislature and request funds to correct the deficiencies.
