FACTS Checks Housing Hazards
A report submitted to the FACTS tribune Thursday night by John Hamrahan, college senior, pointed up a lack of adequate fire escapes on private homes housing students in Lawrence.
Handrahan, who worked during the summer in cooperation with Mrs. Bert Nash, housing director, on inspecting and approving houses as student residences, said, "I don't think I saw a single third floor fire escape which would meet with University standards."

FACTS also approved a motion to name a reporter to inform the Facts tribune about happenings in ASC.
