On January 24, the first day of ex, animations, Emily and James Fowles, " University students, were alarmed 1 when the fire department was sum1 moned to their house, 813 Henderson . Street. Before the trucks could get > there, Finley had scrambled to the i roof and torn off the burning shingles, j despite serious damage to his hands. Finley says the firemen have filed - a complaint against him on the : grounds of his being a non-union ? worker. t U.S. o. i McKISSICK VISITS IN" CHARLOTTE t Dean J.
