LONDON", Aug. 13. (AP) Over
coated children threw snowballs In
Yorkshire today. In Norfolk the
snow was two feet deep, the result
of two days of freak storms that
cut a crazy path across England
and caused three deaths and prop
erty damage estimated at $7,500,000.
At Wold Newton a number of wo
men were near hysteria because of
the fury of lightning and thunder.
Children fled screaming from an
evangelist's tent when lightning
struck the main pole and severely
burned the preacher.
Thousands of telephone tines were
out of commission and hundreds of
houses struck by lightning. Laborers
worked all last night to remove tons
of debris from railroad tracks. Many
Tillages were flooded. In northwest
London hailstones covered the
ground to the depth of one Inch.
