QUAKE continued fi
ings where components were shaken
loose. He said phone technicians
repaired them by Tuesday morning.
Students are now back in their
residence halls and there is room
for students who commute from the
valley, Urdahl said.
"There is housing available for
valley students if they need it,"
Urdahl said. "We can also accommodate
some staff members. Of
j course, it all depends on how many
requests we get."
Food service on campus
remained almost uninterrupted by
the nnake Manv r>f the dinine halls
had been closed down for the holiday,
said Doug Pendleton, director
of dining services.
EVK.Dining Hall, however,
opened at 10 a.m., supplying food
to students and emergency workers,
Pendleton said. EVK also supplied
bag lunches to support workers
who could not leave their jobs, he
said.
Several other campus buildings
suffered damage from cracks in
their plaster to loose cornices and
roof tiles. The only buildings
closed Tuesday were Mudd Hall of
Philosophy, which required repairs
on its tower cornice, and the health
sciences campus bookstore, which
required further inspection, Jones
said.

Old pipes in the Physical
Education building developed leaks
during the quake, Jones said, causing
minor flooding. The pipes are
being repaired, although "funds to
replace the P.E. pipes are not available
at this time," he said.
All of the laboratories were
inspected, according to a release
from the university's news service.
Some chemical spills were identified,
but they have been cleaned
up. The Lyon Center did sustain
some damage and parts of it were
closed temporarily.
Don Ludwig, director of
Intramural/Recreation, said that
both the main and auxiliary gyms
had damaged ceiling tiles, forcing
their closure. In addition, the
Fitness Center had to be closed
because of massive water damage
caused by an upstairs bathroom.
The University Bookstore
remained mainly intact despite the
tremors. The bookstore " had minimal
damage, primarily from books
that fell off the shelves," said Phil
Chiaramonte, bookstore director.
He said the third floor had the most
damage because of die textbooks.
Jones attributed the structural
performance of the university
buildings to a large renovation project
on the buildings several years
ago. Several older buildings were

refurbished to comply with city
seismic codes.
"I believe that, without the seismic
program, we would have had
some dramatic collapses," Jones
said.
The university was not prepared
to offer an estimate of the cost of
repairs. The news service release
stated that renairs are exnerted to
continue for several weeks. The
campus remained open Tuesday
because so many students live on
or near campus, according to a
memo released by Provost Lloyd
Armstrong Jr., Tuesday classes did
end at 5 p.m. to help commuter students
comply with the citywide 11
p.m.-to-dawn curfew declared by
L.A. Mayor Richard Riordan.
Once at the Lyon Center, students
lined up at the phones, slept
on mats in the aerobics room, and
clustered along hallway walls,
where they talked about the earthquake
and the way the university
had handled the situation thus far.
Most seemed frustrated at the
lack of information about the campus,
including some resident advisers.

Initiated by 'a previously
unknown fault running through the
San Fernando Valley, the 10-second
tremor left thousands of victims
in its wake.
Accounting for at least 38
deaths, the natural disaster has
injured hundreds and forced thousands
from their homes. Nearly
half the fatalities occurred when a
three-story structure that had been
Northridge Meadows apartments
crumbled upon itself, killing 16.
Kendall and Matt "Leigh of
Chalsworth experienced the catastrophe
at the epicenter.
"I was sleeping in (my threeyear-old
daughter) Nicole's room
when it woke me ud." Leigh said.
"I grabbed Nicole and got up, but
as I left the bedroom, the dresser
fell on me. I thought it was going
to hit my daughter, but somehow it
didn't, and I was able to get it off.
"At that time, my husband came
from the other bedroom and we all

ran out to the front patio. We spent
the night in the community recreation
room with everyone else from
our community."
"When it finally ended we could
see where the garage door flew off.
The front door flew off." she said.
"The stairs had separated from the
wall and the cracks all over the
house. (Our townhouse) hasn't
been officially condemned yet, so
we're trying to salvage anything
we can. But almost everything is
gone."
A statement issued by Mayor
Richard Riordan Monday night
advised the Los Angeles area to
boil any tap water used for drink
ing purposes.
Additionally, he declared the city
of Los Angeles an emergency area
and subsequently issued a citywide
11 p.m.-to-dawn curfew. Police
officers may use their discretion to
arrest any violators.
