Surplus Stores Running
Low on Gl Long Handles
Surplus stores were running out of once hard to move long under
wear. Auto supply shops did a thriving business in tire chains. The
bamboo trees bent to the ground under the weight of snow in Pasa
dena. The South Pasadena pos'toffice snow shovel, Washington regula
tion issue, got its first workout.
Las’^egas, Nev., which slogans "fun in the sun,” measured eight
and a half inches of snow on the level. Altadena, a suburb just above
Pasadena, had five inches on the ground.
Prolonged severe cold, which has frozen over rivers and clogged
streams with ice, kept a strangle hold on the Pacific Northwest’s hydro
electric water supply.
Electricity users in Washington, Oregon, and northern Idaho were
cautioned they must use only a minimum of power to maintain a "mar
gin of safety” in the electricity supply.
The kind of weather that comes in mid-May ranged from the Caro
linas to New Orleans. Maximum temperatures were in the high 70's
or low 80’s. Several cities recorded record heat for the date.
Flowers bloomed and lawns were a lush green. Three days of
bright sunshine and warm soft air from the Gulf perked up nature like
the breath spring.
The Plains states got a respite from the snow but continued to dig
out from last week’s blizzards. The 12h Wyoming victim of l^st week’s
storm was found frozen to death near Cheyenne, Wyo.
Gordon, Neb., town of 2,100 isolated for 10 days by drifts, was get
ting relief from a critical food and fuel shortage. The last highway
snow barrier into the town was removed Wednesday and tank trucks
were on their way out of the city for loads of fuel oil. Food shipments
from Omaha will arrive Thursday.
The Southwestern Bell Telephone company estimated its lines
suffered nearly $2,000,000 damage from sleet in Missouri, Kansas, Okla
homa, Arkansas and Texas. The glaze covered most of west Texas and
the panhandle. The storm caused two deaths in Texas.

another drink.”
Hank felt he could use one b;
that time himself. It took mor
strength than he had to keep hi
disillusioned friend on his feet
"Let’s just walk a couple mori
blocks,” Hank said, wondering i
he’d get the big hulk to his housi
before he became drunk smellinj
his breath.
The last time Bull fell on thi
snow, they were within a few yard
of his house. One of the fellow;
living there helped drag the bod;
up to the front porch, both of then
steaming faster than a narrow
gauged railroad engine before the;
dropped him.
Hank couldn’t leave without
hearing the rest of the story.
“How can you get that excited
over a dance?” he asked. “The
decorations must have been ter
rific. Didn't it go over?”
To a certain extent, yes,” he
yelled. “The women showed up,
the food showed up, the orches
tra showed up . . . .” Three of his
housemates came outside and
grabbed hold of Bull in case he
became violent. “But it was too
dark! You couldn’t see a damn
thing!”
The fellows picked hint up an<

he could hear him shouting: "I

I just another house dance.”
