screamed and pointed. A stampede
ensued, but, according to early re-
ports, it was quickly stilled at three
of the exits. Through three of the
doors the patrons made their way
hurriedly, but in fairly good order
At the fourth, opening on the stairs
on the east side of the building, doz-
ems of children were caught in an in.
