Summary / Annotation

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Interesting stories - not enough detail submitted by slugwhisperer on August 11, 2014, 6:03pm It's definitely interesting to find out about the sordid events in A2. But the author simply recounts newspaper clippings. The author suggests that the chem lab scandal (Douglas Rose Controversy) had repercussions well into the 1940s, but does not provide details or evidence to this fact. Additionally, some background info was given, such as the meaning of an acronym stated in the Star Theatre incident (I assume it was that national guard).

Worth a read, but leaves many questions.
