Lawrence blazes set with incendiary devices
Assistant Fire Marshal Lloyd M. Davies said Sunday that most of the fires the Lawrence Fire Department fought last week were set by some sort of incendiary device.
Davies said he did not have any definite knowledge of who started the fires and said that causes of the fires are still under investigation, including the Kappa Sigma and the Gambles Store fires.
The fire at the old Lincoln school, he said, was a definite act of some person, since the building did not have any electrical or heating facilities to start the blaze.
Most of the fire bombings, he
said, were not scientifically planned and were set by many different liquids that could have been carried in a variety of containers.

When asked how the sniper fire affected the firemen, Davies said, "Naturally the firemen fighting fires have to concentrate on the fire. The fire is dangerous enough without putting the firemen under apprehension and strain."

Finding a parking space in downtown Lawrence on Friday, April 24 was not a problem. Both pedestrian and auto traffic was slow all day.
Violence hinders business
The savings go on and on. Tonight from 5:00 to 7:00 Henry's chicken dinners (3 pieces of chicken, roll, french fries, cole slaw) are only 69c.
Tuesday evening, 5:00 to 7:00, it's Henry's hefty chili dogs for 19c apiece. And stay tuned, there are more sundown savings coming.
Many of the downtown merchants complained that the decline in traffic was causing their sales to go down.
Richard Clark, assistant manager of Woolworths, said "I think the lack of business is due more to the violence at the University of Kansas rather than the curfew imposed by the city."
"Our sales have eased off," Clark said, "but that's only natural when there aren't any people on the street. It's a sad state of affairs when people are afraid to go out on the streets in a town the size of Lawrence."
Mrs. Samples, owner of Daniels Jewelry, said her business was slower than usual. "You won't have business if customers don't come into the store," she said. "And customers won't come in

the store if they are afraid to come downtown."
The trouble in Lawrence has caused us to lock up more of our stock at night, Mrs. Samples said
Ralph W. Campbell, owner of Campbell's Men's Wear, agreed that it was the trouble in Lawrence, not the curfew that affected his business.
"We bought a fire extinguisher, just in case," Campbell said. "I think," he continued, "the city made the only decision they could have made under the conditions of violence they were working with."
Kroger's downtown had no decrease in business according to William Crane, employee of Kroger's. "People have been coming in earlier in the day, but sales have been normal," Crane said.
The University State Bank took precautions against the violence by using extra personnel for security, Kenn Ragland, president of the bank, said Friday.
"Bank activities have been normal," Ragland said. "With the information I have about the trouble in town, I think the city is handling the situation well."

Give your contact lenses a bath tonight
In order to keep your contact lenses as comfortable and convenient as they were meant to be, you have to take care of them. But until now you needed two or more separate solutions to properly prepare and maintain your contacts. Not with Lensine. Lensine is the one lens solution for complete contact lens care.
Cleaning your contacts with Lensine retards the buildup of foreign deposits on the lenses. And soaking your contacts in Lensine overnight assures you of proper lens hygiene. You get a free soaking case on the bottom of every bottle of Lensine.
It has been demonstrated that improper storage between wearings may result in the growth of bacteria on the lenses. This is a sure cause of eye irritation and in some cases can endanger your vision. Bacteria cannot grow in Lensse which is sterile, self-sanitizing, and antiseptic.
Just a drop or two of Lensine, before you insert your lens, coats and lubricates it allowing the lens to float more freely in
the eye's fluids. That's because Lensine is an "isotonic" solution, which means that it blends with the natural fluids of the eye.
Let your contacts be the convenience they were meant to be. Get some Lensine, from the Murine Company, Inc.
