Fire at 300 E 40th St Claims 12th Victim Joyce Franks
A deadly blaze at the gray L shaped building on 300 East 40th Street kills twelve, including 21 year old Joyce Franks. Fire officials say the fire started in the basement near a stairwell and spread up an unused shaft to the third floor. Two brothers Cornelius and Charles Twenter alerted residents and urged them to seal doors and close windows. Fire Chief James Halloran reports no evidence of arson. The owner bought the property about 12 years ago after a prior fire. Neighbors note it was a rare affordable building for families with children.

Nixon Decries Violent Protest During Midwestern Stop
Nixon spoke to a crowd at a library where a large flag was raised and a youth shouted obscenities about his call for honesty in debate. A short-haired youth restrained the long-haired protester as the melee ended without arrests. Nixon then urged faculty to defend reason over force and warned that revolts test American freedom. He warned of empty promises in politics and urged plain speaking about public life. The trip continued to Colorado Springs for Air Force Academy events before a return to Washington.
