Water from water pipes which burst in one of the sleeping dormitories caused extensive damage to the Alpha Phi sorority house during Christmas vacation. The exact amount of damage will not be known for several weeks until the house is throughly dry but it is not expected to exceed $1000.
Alpha Phi House Damaged
The water was discovered Thursday by the sorority's house man. Mrs. G. K. Whitenight, 1700 Mississippi St. an alumnus of the sorority, said it was believed the pipes broke Dec. 30, the night it snowed
in Lawrence. The heat was off in the dormitory and the door was closed.
The water ran through the floor to the other floors. The first floor had the most damage. The wall to wall carpeting there was stained by the water. Furniture was sent to a cleaners before it dried and was not expected to be stained. The piano will probably be a total loss.
Some of the mattresses in the dormitory were stained and there was some leakage through to the outside of the building. Mrs. Whitenight
said the concrete floors and tile floor covering on the other floors prevented them from being damaged.
The furnace and wiring in the house have been checked and were not damaged.
Will Play In Oklahoma City
Roy Hamlin Johnson, assistant professor of piano, will appear with the Oklahoma City Symphony orchestra on Feb. 23. He will be琴 soloist in Shostakovitch's "Concerto, Opus 35."
