Ollie Morrow, CO, Snyder bus iness man, was drowned by a flash flood which swept him from a bridge. The Colorado river battered down a railroad bridge and a high way . bridge, and destroyed two smaller spans. Rail and highway traffic was at a standstill here. Train Escapes Bridge Washout Only a few minutes before the Lrailroad bridge washed out a west bound Texas and Pacific passen ger train was halted after train men saw water lapping two feet below the floor of the trestle. Hundreds of bales of cotton and other debris hammered at the bridge pilings until the structure collapsed. Eight cars of . fuel oil, shunted to the bridge in an effort to give it stability, plunged into the torrent. Colorado City, a town of 5,000 about 250 miles west of Dallas watched flood waters back into the residential district up a nor mally small creek that empties Into the Colorado. Two hundred Mexican and ne gro families fled to higher ground here. Snyder Red Cross officials asked aid for 50 persons left homeless when flood waters washed their houses away. Flood waters - Rise Rapidly Thundershowers dumping up to 11 inches of rain caused the floods. Water at Snyder, a town of 3,500, rose so swiftly emergency crews were sent to warn residents. Snyder is 35 miles northeast. The river later receded four feet at Colorado City and observers did not believe the crest of flood wa ters from trlbutay creeks would cause another serious rise. Water ten feet deep poured across the eastern approach to the bridge on U.S. highway SO and the town was crowded with stranded motorists.
