A new- snow storm brewed
trouble over Texas today and
promised to dump heavy snow
sleet and rain across most of
th' South. The weather bureau
warned of critical driving con
ditions.
Dallas was slugged with
inches of fresh snow during the
night and Fort Worth was hit
with 4 inches. The ground cov
er totalled nearly one foot in
many areas.
The weather bureau expanded
earlier warnings of critical
weather to include a wide area
stretching from southwest Tex
as to Tennessee and Alabama.
Heavy snow warnings were in
effect during the night for north
central and northeast Texas
and today for southern Arkan
sas and northern Mississippi.
The storm was expected to
spread sleet and rain south of
the snow belt and Hazardous
driving warnings were issued
for the entire area.
The snow forced all major
airlines to cancel out-going
flights from Love Field at Dal
las and re route incoming
flights to other fields. The Dal
las police department reported
about 300 fender-bending traffic
accidents during the afternoon
and evening.
Sherman and Denison, due
north of Dallas, were all but
isolated by the sudden storm.
Roads in the area were closed
to all but emergency traffic.
Elsewhere, warmer air
pushed into the Atlantic Coast
states and colder air dropped
down on the Midwest. Light
rain drifted in from the Pacific
across Washington and north
em Oregon.
In Florida, where Wednes
day's freezing temperatures
shriveled winter vegetable
crops, authorities said the dam
age would run into the millions
of dollars. Some farmers had
their entire bean and tomato
crops destroyed. Florida's cit
rus crop, a mainstay of the
states economy, escaped sen
Ions damage.
HOUSTON (UPI)-The feder
al space agency will announce
the resignation of astronaut
John Glenn today, freeing him
to run for the U.S. Senate in
Ohio.
Reliable sources said the an
nouncement "is imminent."
There was no immediate com
ment from the astronaut who
was the first American to orbit
in space.
A spokesman for the National
Aeronautics and Space Admin
istration (NASA) emphasized
that before Glenn could enter
a political race he would have
to resign from' the space program.
The 43-year-old Glenn, oldest
of the original seven Mercury
astronauts, would have a com
ment later, NASA said.
Like the other astronauts,
Glenn lives in the Clear Lake
area outside Houston, close to
the manned spacecraft center.
Glenn will make his announce
ment at 7 a.m. PST Friday in
the ballroom of the Neil House
Hotel in Columbus, a hotel
spokesman said. Arrangements
for the news conference were
made this morning.
Glenn's expected entry into
the contest was sure to create
a race of international interest
as it could match the first
American to orbit the earth
against Rep. Robert Taft Jr.,
a member of one of the coun
try's most prominent Republi
can families.
The source told United Press
International that Glenn, sought
by both Democrats and Repub
licans, "has decided to run for
the Senate as a Democrat. His!
announcement is imminent." ,
Bringing Glenn into the race
to stop Taft closely paralleled
a move by Republicans in 1952
when they stopped his father s
bid for the Republican presiden
tial nomination by getting a na
tional hero, Gen. Dwight D. Eis
enhower, the GOP presidential
nomination.
Glenn declined to comment on
the report at the National Aer
onautics and Space Administra
tion (NASA) Space Center in
Houston, Tex. A NASA spokes
man, however, told UPI that
Glenn, in seclusion most of this
week, said Tuesday he expected
to make a decision on politics
this week.
