Fire victims may rebuild
By ROBERT STEVENS and EMERY GOAD
Fires like the $750,000 one which struck Lawrence during Christmas vacation many times bring improvements to a city.
When buildings are destroyed, such as the Independent Laundry and Miller Furniture Store, they usually are replaced with new and modern businesses.
**THIS WAS THE CASE** with Rusty's IGA store in the Hillcrest Shopping Center last Spring. An even more modern building stands in the place of the former $500,000 structure.
The largest downtown fire since the days of Quantrill completely gutted two business establishments, and well-informed sources have indicated that construction of two new buildings will come soon.
CITY OFFICIALS stated Wednesday that a building permit application had been given to Jack Miller for a new Miller
Furniture store to be on the site of the other store on Massachusetts.
Miller, owner of the store, said he was considering reconstruction, but had not made a public decision as yet. He said a formal announcement would be forthcoming in the next few days.
RUMOR HAS IT Mrs. Ed Elam owner of Independent Laundry is also considering rebuilding on the present site. She would not comment on her plans at the present time.
The laundry is running a claim service at 735 Massachusetts St. from noon until 8 p.m. the next three weeks or until everyone gets his claim filed. Insurance adjustors will be on hand.
Russell Wiley, director of KU bands, said that the band uniforms, which were being stored in the laundry's vault, were only slightly damaged by smoke. He was guaranteed that one cleaning would rid the garments of any odor left by smoke.

Sonja Carlson, Independence, Mo., freshman, finds her 10-year-old little sister very outgoing. "I'm afraid she helps me more than I help her. Anything like this helps you get your mind off yourself, and that's good," she said.
Miss Carlson applied for the program because she wanted something outside of school, she enjoys children and she was homesick for her younger brothers and sisters at home.

BYERS SAID OF HIS 13-year-old mentally retarded brother, "I never thought he was in much of a shell. But now he suggests things to do, and he wants to treat me, too. We go out and have a good time, horseback riding, bowling, watching intramural games. He gets along really well.
"This gets me out of the school atmosphere," he continued, "and back to real life. You forget there's a Lawrence outside of KU sometimes. Now it's like I've got a bit of family here.
