Freshmen Uninjured After 25-Foot Fall

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

A freshman slipped through a hole in a Grays Hall fire escape tonight but landed safely 25 feet below.

Harvard Police were notified instantly and within minutes a fire truck arrived to take the freshman, James A. Goldmann, to the University Health Services Emergency Room.

"All I felt was like the wind was knocked out of me," said Goldmann. He was X-rayed at the hospital and released.

According to Arpad Voros '74 and Jorge Diez '74, Goldmann's roommates, the three boys were playing out on the fire escape when the accident occurred.

The hole, which leads via a ladder to the ground, is about 11/2feet square. It is the same hole through which a girl fell over a year ago.
