Clyde Howe, whose bedroom was
covered with muck up to four feet
deep in places. He was 32. she
would have been - 32 Saturday.
Their three small children were
asleep upstairs and escaped in
jury when the slide thundered
down without warning from -a 250
foot' hill and poured through the
store.
An all-day rain Tuesday had
loosened the dirt About midnight,
it gave way. carrying trees and
rock in a minor avalanche.
"I -heard a roaring noise like
thunder just as I was going to
bed." said Charles Kramer who
lives next door. ; "I was able to
climb up and get into an upstairs
window. The children were awake
but weren't crying. All they knew
is that they'd called for their moth
er and dad. and got no answer."
The mud and: debris smashed
through a back wall and poured
heavily across the Howe's apart
ment. Their bed was tossed across
the room. It took three hours to
