Explosion Injures UC Berkeley Student
    BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) - A package left in a computer room on the
University of California campus exploded Wednesday when a student
tried to open it ''out of curiosity,'' and one of his arms was
mangled, witnesses said.
    The unidentified student was able to tell engineering Professor D.
J. Angelakos that he had found the package and tried to open it when
it exploded.
    ''He opened it out of curiosity and it blew up,'' said Angelakos.
    ''All we know right now is that some kind of device exploded on the
second floor of the building,'' said Sgt. Calvin Handy of the campus
police. He said the blast occurred at about 1:45 p.m. PDT on the
second floor of Cory Hall.
    The building, on the north side of the campus, was evacuated and
campus officers searched it.
    Three years ago, Angelakos tried opening a package left on the
fourth floor of the same building and it exploded, showering him with
debris and injuring his left hand.
    ''I was in an adjacent room. I heard a very strong explosion and
then after about two or three seconds I heard a person screaming,''
said C.C. Chen, 29, a graduate student who had been working in the
next room.
    ''He was screaming, 'Help me, help me.' I went in and his arm was
exploded. There was blood everywhere.''
    On Tuesday, a pipe bomb was found in a classroom on the San
Francisco State University campus. It was disarmed and partially
detonated by authorities, and there were no injuries.
