According to Professor Frederick Seubert the explosion was caused by faulty goods delivered earlier this morning by traveling salesman Dawn Huntley. Mr. Hunt- ley has been traveling on the Torgerson jet Air Lines and delivering goods for the past eight years. Mr. Torgerson retired from his job as Superintendent of Cottonwood High School after his purchase of the Cottonwood Air Port. Among those on the casualty list are Delbert Nuxoll, fish and game warden for the State of Idaho. He seems to be recovering as he remarked to his emergency nurse Donna jean Tacke, I surely hope those explosions don't scare my fish and animals away too far! Donna offered to give up her duties as head nurse of the Cottonwood Hospital to assist in this emergency. just to show how great the explosion was Mr. Don Spencer stated that some of the remains of the explosion flew as far as his farm one mile south of Cottonwood. Don donated the land where the laboratory formerly stood to his old friend and class- mate, Fred Seubert. Miss Mary O'Neil is suffering from shock.

Mr. Funke was awakened from a deep sleep by the explosion and ran from his near-by hotel room to see what he could do to help. All patients are being treated by the resident physician, Dr. Clinton Schnider. Dr. Schnider, specializing in setting broken bones and treating burns, has proven very efficient in handling the many injured. Dr. Schnider is a young doctor, this being his fifth year in practice. He is certainly doing well for this short time. We have just received another' bulletin from newspaper reporter Rita Ann Rohwei who has been busy collecting the inside information concerning this catastrophe. Miss Rohwein reports that Pat Suhr has left her fabulous New York penthouse apart- ment to donate her time to scrubbing floors. Miss Suhr has gained great fame as a clothing designer. First grade teacher, Miss Joanne Lightfield, is having her thirty willing little helpers draw some pictures to amuse and cheer the atmosphere of the hospital. Mrs. Buettnet, retired teacher of the Cottonwood High School, has offered to donate enough money from her Teacher's Retirement Fund to Professor Fred Seubert so that he can rebuild his laboratory.
