By JAIME HODGE City editor

Carman Hall experienced two more fire alarms Saturday and Sunday morning, marking the third and fourth fire alarms to sound in Carman Hall in one week. At about 4 a.m. Sunday the halls started filling with smoke, said Thomas Frey, Carman Hall resident assistant for the ninth floor of the south tower. The entire south tower was evacuated for about 45 minutes and the fire department brought the fire under control quickly, Frey said. “Saturday morning there was a fire in the south tower in the trash chute and there was smoke on my IKUYA KURATA/Photo editor floor. It wasn’t a lot, but it was John Messamore, a junior finance major, and Cara Kokenes, a exercise science graduate student, strike their favorite poses after enough to give (residents) a winning the titles of Mr. EIU and Ms. Fitness, respectively, in front of about 200 students Saturday in the Grand Ball Room. scare,” Frey said.
