Gas suspected
PITTSBURGH (AP) - An
unidentified gas caused the
explosion at a University of
Pittsburgh lecture hall last
month in which two people
died, a university investigator
testified yesterday.,
“The evidence is over
whelming that it was gas,”
said Dr. Maurice Sussman
during a break at a coroner’s
hearing into the Jan. 20 blast,
which killed two women and
destroyed a part of Langley
Hall.
“It could have been due to
methane from some gas pit or
it is possible it was natural,
gas from a leak,” said
Sussman, chairman of the
Life Science Department and
head of a university com
mittee formed to examine the
explosion.
Another witness, Capt.
Norman Sanner of the Pitts
burgh Fire Department
agreed that the gas could
have been methane or

Sanner, however, disagreed
with Sussman’s theory on the
exact location of the ex
plosion.
Sussman and a city
detective said the blast
originated in a crawl-space
located on the ground floor
between an electron
microscope laboratory and a.
lecture hall.
But Sanner said the point of
origin was in an adjacent
electron microscope
laboratory.
Both Sussman and Sanner
testified there were two ex
plosions. “From eyewit
nesses we have concluded
there were two explosions, a
soft-crump and then a loud
bang,” Sussman said.
Sanner said that tests made
Jan. 21 indicated there was no
natural gas present in the
microscope laboratory. The
