Most of the injured were treated and released, but police reported seven other people remained in hospitals last night, including one man with a broken leg. The dancers were in two rooms of the apartment owned by Turkish-born Shefget Djemal, 38, who was among those hospital ized.

"I was pouring out some drinks doivn stairs when suddenly there was panicking and screaming everywhere," she said. "I couldn't see anything for dust. ' I couldn't open the door at the back and the only thing to db was smash the window." Passersby and neighbors rushed to help. A police officer said later, "There were so many of them acting hysterically that they got in the way of the trained rescuers and the ambulancemen." The floor of the apartment in Plashet Grove, East Ham, in London's East End, was creaking before it collapsed, according to an unidentified girl quoted by Press Assocation, the domestic news agency. She said a soul-music record was playing and "We told them to quiet down when we heard the creaking. They stopped and started again. Then everything went. "I could feel people beneath me trying to get out:" A spokesman for the London Fire Brigade said half of the apartment floor collapsed. sports Carnutherses earn Ist U.S. medal By D. BYRON YAKE AP Sports Editor SARAJEVO, Yugoslavia The brother and sister team of Kitty and Peter Carruthers ended the medals famine for the United States at the Winter Olympics yes terday, taking the silver in pairs figure skating with a near flawless performance. The couple skated the 4 1 / 2 -minute freestyle program masterfully and were beaten out only by Soviets Elena Valova and Oleg Vasiliev, who received one 5.9, six 5.85, two 5.75. • Sarajevo 'B4 The Carrutherses, both adopted when they were 3 months old, re ceived one score of 5.9 from the Canadian judge, but a 5.5 from a Japanese judge. They also got one 5.8 and six 5.75. "I'm in shock. I've never been happier in my whole life," Kitty said. "I knew right before the start. I looked at Pete. It was going to be magic." They were few detectable prob lems in their presentation while the gold medalists had one detectable flaw, a slip by Valova on a double axle. ' The Carrutherses edged another Soviet couple, Larissa Selezneve and Olege Makarov, for second place. The two pairs had been tied for second going into the freestyle part of the competition, which counted for 80 per cent of the final score. While the Carrutherses snapped the U.S. medal jinx, the East Ger mans added to their Games-leading total with two golds, in 70-meter ski jumping and women's luge. The men's downhill race again was postponed by bad weather and an Italian policeman won his country's first gold medal, in luge. The British ice dance team of Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean achieved more perfection and Finnish cross-country skier Marja- Liisa Hamalainen became the first double gold medal winner of the XIV Games. Both the Soviets and the East Germans have a total of 12 medals. East Germany has five gold, while the Soviet Union has three. Now the Americans have a med al, but still not gold. No American has ever won a gold medal in the pairs skating competi tion and while the Carrutherses didn't do quite that well, they ac complished what they said they had set out to do: skate a clean program and not worry about judging or winning. Both were dressed in black, their necklines ringed with rhinestones, and they were a smooth-skating pair. At the end of their program, knowing they had done well, they hugged in joy in the center of the Zetra rink. "I told him I loved him and I was happy we wiirked this hard and we achieved our goal," said Kitty. "It's a dream come true." Said Peter: "We fight like broth er and sister and we care for each other like brother and sister." Until their performance, the U.S. athletes here had nothing to be joyous about. Their troubles includ ed the hockey debacle on ice, which is gone but not forgotten. Even too much snow has been a problem. So far, it had been a Winter Olympics dominated by the East German and Soviet teams and nothing for the U.S. athletes. Seven medals were handed out yesterday, two to East Germany and one each to Sweden, Norway, Finland, Italy and the Soviet Union. The Fins picked up a gold, two silver and two bronze medals yes terday and moved into third place in the overall standings with six. Norway had four medals, Sweden The Daily Collegian Monday, Feb. 13, 1984 two and five other countries had one each The lack of success by American athletes was starting to show in more places than the medals' table. "I think the United States team as a whole is looking for someone to do well right now," said ,Frank Masley, a luger from Newark, Del., who added that the previous day's U.S. performance was so disap pointing the team was calling it "Black Saturday." The Carrutherses came to the rescue, just as Torvill and Dean did for England, just as Hamalainen did for Finland. Torvill and Dean just seem to get better as they close in on the gold medal they are expected to win. They got three perfect 6.0 s in the compulsories Friday, and yester day got four 6.0 s in the original set pattern event, a two-minute dance that counts for 20 percent of the overall score. The compulsories count for 30 percent and the free style, which is the only part re maining, counts for 50 percent. The couple from Nottingham, England she a former clerk, he a former rookie cop on the Notting ham force who are fondly known as `T & D" in their native land, got one perfect score for composition and three for presentation. Judges from Italy, Canada and Hungary gave them perfect scores in presentation. The judge from Hungary also gave them one in composition. The British judge gave them 5.9 in each category, as did all the other judges. "I'm absolutely thrilled with their scores," their coach, Betty Callaway, said. "Everything seems to be going in their favor. We're really looking forward to Tuesday night." That's when the free dancing will be held and medals awarded. In second place was a Soviet couple, Natalia Bestemianova and Andrei Bukin, followed by Ameri cans Judy Blumberg and Michael Seibert in third. The two other U.S. ice dancing teams remained in the top 10 after the second event. Carol Fox arid Richard Dailey were sixth and Eli sa Spitz and Scott Gregory were 10th. Hamalainen grabbed her second gold medal of the Games by win ning the women's 5-kilometer cross-country race in 17 minutes, 4 seconds. Last Thursday, she won the 10-kilometer race, the firgt medal of the Games, and has a shot at a third gold in the 20-kilometer, a new event this year.
