        Chemical fumes caused dozens of children to become ill at Ericson Elementary.
        The fumes blew in from pool-chemicals used at a nearby apartment complex.
        Dozens of children got sick and were treated inside.
        At first-six kids complained of flu like symptoms, and filed into the nurse's office after lunch.
        Paramedics arrived to treat them, but then, the number grew to 40 sick kids.
        A lunch-time aide was the only one taken to the hospital.
        The chemical odor came from the apartment complex next door, and was blown in through the air-conditioning vents.
        School is scheduled to resume tomorrow.
