observers say,, for more than au
inch of rain to fall here In ono
day. Accompanying the rain was u
heavy wind storm.
The rain, cutting Into snow la the
hills, resulted In a heavy Increase
in the volume of water in- rivers

I Grande Konde river wus running
high today, and last night water
out of Oeal's canyon over-ran at
First and K avenuo.'although little

overflow raced on down the hill to
be taken care of In storm sewers.
Tho fall wus heavy enough to
cause the water to back up at sev

for a period of time.
Wires were down between La
