Money from reopened banks and emergency funds voted by the Btate legislature eased the financial situation in a dozen cities and towns where wrecking ! crews were clearing the debris from last Friday’s major earthquake and making way for new , buildings.
Refuges Return Home
Thousands of refugees in Long Beach, Compton, Watts and other t temblor-torn cities joined slowly i in a migration from parks, golf courses and vacant lots back to their own homes.

Plaster was cracked in most of the buildings and chimneys broken off at the roof line. Some chimneys were removed Monday. Guards are posted at the rear of the Administration building where the top section of the furnace flue rests securely except at time of quakes. Some damage was done to the upper
ministration building.
Most of the buildings are modern of Class A construction, hence the university is fortunately able to report but little damage done. Even Old College suffered but little loss of plaster and is entirely safe structurally. Mudd Memorial hall and tbe Doheny Jr. Memorial library show no damage at ail.
