Fire strikes Bailey Hall
The absence of an alarm system in Bailey Hall forced about 30 people to be evacuated by Lawrence firefighters who, despite a fire was discovered in the building.
Authorities said that the fire started about 11 a.m. in the air conditioning unit between the first and second floors and caused $1,500 to $3,500 of damage, most of which was smoke damage. There were no injuries.
Fire inspectors pointed out last February that an alarm system was needed in Bailey.
A fire system eventually will be installed in Bailey when enough funds are allocated for major renovation, Tom Spencer, director of facilities operations, said.
Fire Chief Jim McSwain said the fire could have been caused by a malfunction in the air conditioning or by unit faulty wiring.
Anderson said crews worked yesterday to clean up the damage that occurred in rooms on the east side of the building, but it will be able to meet in those rooms today.
Most of the smoke was confined to the first floor. People in the building left through the main doors and did not have to use fire escapes.
Lawrence police are investigating a weekend burglary at the Lawrence Public Library, 707 Vermont St., in the non-remained amount of money was taken.
On the Record
Police said the贼 apparently hid inside the building Friday night until the library closed. They found no signs of activity in the room and the library had been broken open.
The thief pried open a safe in the library and removed its contents, police said. Two money boxes and a bank register were taken from the bookkeeper's office.
Police will not know the exact amount taken until library officials can check their records today.
POLICE ARE ALSO investigating a burglary that occurred Thursday or Friday in the 1100 block of Connecticut Street.
and screens from a house and crawled inside, police said.
They took two televisions valued at $1,000, a stereo system valued at $650, and two KU souvenir serving trays valued at $60.
THEIEWS TOOK STEREOS from cars in two separate incidents over the weekend, police said.
The first burglar occurred sometime between Jan. 28 and Friday at G and R Imports, 2858 Fourwheel Drive. Police said the thief broke into the car using a coat hanger and took a stereo system valued at $715.
The other burglary occurred Friday night in the 1000 block of Massachusetts Street, police said. The thief smashed the driver's window with a rock and took an AM/FM cassette portable radio valued at $88, 42 cassette tapes valued at $294, and a cassette carrying case valued at $25.
The thieves removed storm windows

Student-clogged roads make van service late
Because students clog the roadways between classes, many disabled students using the Student Assistance Center vans have been consistently late, Bob Turvey, the center's associate director, said Friday.
Turvey said the vans spent from five to 10 minutes waiting at the intersection of Jayhawk Boulevard and Sunflower Road.
"It's aggravating to everybody," Turvey said. "Walking people seem to be the king of the campus."
By AMY S. COLLINS Staff Reporter
ACCORDING TO TURVEL, the vans transport roughly 20 to 25 people daily. The Student Assistance Center operates the two vans to help people who are on crutches or who are permanently disabled get to class.
"The poor person trying to get to class is consistently late and often it's more than one student."
The vans are easily recognizable. One is light blue and the other is beige with brown and orange stripes. Both vans have raised roofs.
Turvey said the van service enabled disabled people to remain enrolled in their classes. Two people have had to work outside of care after being hit by cars on campus.
"When you're driving on campus you take on a whole different perspective."
He said the vans had a tight schedule because of the number of people they transported and the 10-minute period between classes. He said that some people were able to meet the van at a curb, but that often the van driver had to enter a building and assist the disabled person into the van.
TURVEY SAID he hoped people would let the van pass when they saw it stuck among a thong of students.
In addition to curb cuts, planned ramps at Watson Library and the van service, a pneumatic door opener has a hallway. It will have more accessible to the disabled.
The Student Assistance Center is happier with another University attempt to improve access for the handicapped.
