Fire Destroys AKC
Adnin. Building
BERKELEY, Calif. (/P) — Fire,
accompanied by a series of minor
explosions, destroyed the atomic
enery commission’s administra
tion building here last night.
AEC officials declined to answer
such questions as (D whether any
irreplacable scientific data was
lost, (2) what the building con
tained, or (3) how great was the
loss in dollar values.
Brilliant flames shot high from
the two-story frame building, at
tracting thousands—including sci
entists intent on saving notes on
experiments. At least one scien
tist was barred from entering be
cause of the danger.
Quickly posted security guards
prevented anyone entering the
AEC-cyclotron area, which is en- ,
closed by a high, electrified fence.,
The University of California’s
giant $9,000,000 cyclotron, in a
concrete building 100 yards away,
was not damaged.
AEC officials gave out no news
whatsoever.
Besides the Bell system, approx
imately 6,000 telephone compan
ies are operating in the United
States, largely in rural areas. I
