CHICAGO, Feb. 10 Towering snowdrifts and glacial cold crippled much of the mid-continent today, re turning the fight against the ele ments to the terms of pioneer days. Isolated ranchers in South Dakota burned fence posts and bay to keep warm, while their city cousins In snowbound communities In that and other central states rationed fuel against the sub-zero cold. Abnormally cold weather, the wea ther bureau said, would continue In the north-central states tomorrow and probably through Wednesday; with, however, some rise In tempera ture In extreme southern sections to night or Tuesday. Some snow flur ries were predicted for parts of tbe upper Great lakes regian. Travel Crippled Throughout the middle west aug mented crews worked to dig out tbe paths of modern travel highways and railroads, after a week-end In which both were almost at stand still. Double engines pulled some trains Into Chicago, as many as 50 shovelers rode other lines. Drifts In railroad cuts were reported as deep as 30 feet. Tbe longest and bitterest cold spell of many years clung on relentlessly, with the lowest recorded temperature minus 32 at Wllllston, N. D. Almost the entire northern half of the coun try was In the grip of zero, sub-eero or near sero cold. Winter pushed tbe zero front as far south as extreme southern Mis- sou:!, and east to New York. Many dramatic rescues were re-1 ported Including the savings by coast i guardsmen of seven CCO workers afloat on Ice floes In Cape Cod bay for 22 hours. One youth was report ed suffering frozen feet. At the same time an airplane started from Sault Ste. Marie, Mich, to search for three men adrift on Ice In Lake Michigan. Pood, Pud Low Snow plows and shoveling crews ; raced deprlvstion In many sections, j Country areas In southern Minnesota! were pressed not only for fuel but for provisions. Fanners loaded cans of milk on toboggans and drew them by hand to some towns where supplies were running short. A rancher froze to death In his cor ral, near Philip, S. D and a motor ist was found dead at his summer home north of Chicago after his car stalled In the drifts. Tales of ingenuity matched those of hardship. When a raging blizzard cut Dr. C. M- BoblUlard off from tne farm borne of Mrs. Vernon Sleihler at Cannon Falls, Minn., be gave direc tions for two hours aud a half over the telephone, enabling Mrs. Slelhler's mother to preside at the birth of a baby girt.
