Gertrude Sellards Pearson and Corbin hells have had four false fire alarms this semester. Since the reward was posted, however, they have not had any
false fire alarms in the residence halls.

Allen said he had contacted the KU,
president for advice about holding a
annurator for the residence.
"I don't think people are aware of the fact that could result from making false claims."
Repeated false fire alarms could lead to the "cry wolf" syndrome, he said, a situation in which residents do not take fire alarms seriously.
In the case of a real fire, the "dry wolf" attitude could end in tragedy, he said.
ADMINISTRATORS ALSO worry that students will become less responsive to fire alarms and that this will cause a disaster.
"There are inherent dangers in false fire alarmes," McEiblen said of the 57 false alarms made in halls last year. "They are toil people into indifference."
Tuttle said 2 to 5 percent of Ellsworth residents ledged in clearing the building when the fire alarm sounded this semester.
Besides the reward other measures are being taken to discourage fire alarm.
Fire alarm boxes have been treated with a substance that turns fingers blue at air pressure.
Persons found guilty of making false fire alarms could spend a maximum of one year in the county jail and pay a fine. A judge ordered Robinson of the KU police department.
