SANFORD SECURITY GUARDS yesterday apprehended
three University students in the Waterman Gymnasium substation
and storage area. The desperatos later told the Ann Arbor City
Police that they had arrived in the gymnasium via a tunnel. They
first entered the tunnel through a manhole in front of the Union.
The underground explorers followed the subsurface passage-
ways that are used for University electrical and service lines until
they finally emerged in the depths of the gymnasium.
The students admitted to police that they were not the first
to take the underground tour of University sights, but that many
students have explored the network of caverns that ring the
campus.
The kind-hearted Ann Arbor police took pity on the ad-
venturous students and released them. But not before they had
notified University officials of the tunnel tour incident.
