Dousing rains returned to the
dust bowl today and the South
land recovered from a week end
of wild weather.
Lamesa, in the heart of the
West Texas dust bowl, was soak
ed by three inches of rain. More
ground-soakers were predicted
for across the state.
The rains were a welcome con
tinuation of the downpours
which hit bone-dry fields in Tex
as, Oklahoma, Colorado and New
Mexico last week.
The earlier rains claimed at
least 12 lives and turned creeks
into flooding torrents. But most
of the flood waters were reced
ing today, although further
flooding was feared on Oklaho
ma's Cimarron river.
The new rains were accompa
nied by a rash of tornadoes in
Texas and Oklahoma. Twisters
touched ground late last night
and early today in Oklahoma
near Balko and Gage, and at six
Texas points. Damage was light,
however.
The Southwest's storms moved
into the Southeast during the
week end, touching off torna
does at Macon, Ga., Saturday and
at Rome, Ga.,' yesterday.
The Macon twister whisked
away the roof of an orphange as
from 200 to 300 children cower
ed on the floor.
Farther north, however, mild
veather sent the number of
drownings zooming.
At Jeffersonville, Ind., three
boys and their uncle decided to
go on a pleasure cruise on the
Ohio river.
Four Drown In Stream
The backwash of a river tow
boat overturned their craft and
all four drowned. They were
David Lowe, 16; his brother,
Wesley, 10; a cousin, William H.
Anderson, 14, and their uncle,
Raymond Posey, 42. All were
Jeffersonville residents.
Tupelo, Miss., was drenched
with almost four and one half
inches of rain. Other downpours
soaked Charlotte, N.C., with. 1.55
inches, Agust, Ga., with 1.33, and
Chicago with 1.11.
Elsewhere early today, the
temperature dropped to a sub
freezing 31 degrees at Mullen
Pass, Ida., and readings were in
the 40s from the Dakotas to
Washington state.
Showers and thunderstorms
spattered an area from the east
ern Great Lakes to the Appala
chians and, on the Southern Pa
cific Coast, the highest tides of
the season forced three Long
Beach, Calif., store owners to
sandbag their store fronts.
Back Stairs: Social Activity Dodged
By MERRIMAN SMITH
United Press Staff Writer
Washington U.R) Back
stairs at the White House
People in the business swear
it's true. A social organization
that recently entertained Presi
dent Eisenhower offered the
proceedings to the networks for
"live" television pickup for $25,
000. No takers.
It has been suggested to the
White House that the code name
for the upcoming Big Four
meeting in Europe be "Opera
tion Sunrise." This stems from
the President's ad lib last week
on his television appearance
with Secretary of State John
Foster Dulles in which the Chief
Executive said:
"We are not going to extin
guish the hope that a new dawn
may be coming, even if it rises
the sun rises very, very slowly.
In a bookcase to the left of
the President's office desk is a
complete set of the Encyclopedia
Britannica. But, if Mr. Eisen
hower will look closely, he'll
find that volumne number 24 is
upside down. That's the index
volume for the collection.
Minor Accidents

ertson May 6. Within 45 minutes
her entire blood supply was

was a fatal mixture of her par

A second transfusion was per
formed when Denise suffered a

Members of the Gettysburg,
Pa., Country club are doing
everything possible to make
playing on their course pleasant
for the President. They've even
hung a copy of his portrait of
Bobby Jones in the locker room.
Golf professionals have known
for at least two years that the
President's participation in their
game lured thousands of new
players to courses across the
country.
Now, the men who sell paints
and canvases to ambitious ar
tists have realized a similar
boost in their business due to
Mr. Eisenhower's interest' in
painting.

award for Mr. Eisenhower as

Washington (U.R) Come
Thursday and Frank Delaney
will be 44 years old and he's
right back
where he start
ed. Or at least
six inches from
where he start
ed. That takes a
mite of ex
plaining. Frank was
born in the
place where he
now works
Harman Nichol an office build
ing at George Washington Uni
versity Medical School.
"Looky there," Frank said
when I called on him. "Right
there near where my desk is
now is where my mom, Mrs.
James Delaney delivered me.
She always said I would go far.
And here I am today only a
step from where I was born.
That was May 25 44 years ago."
W. NICHOLS
ftnf Writer
The building in which Frank
toils as a medical school photo
grapher he takes pictures of
charts and bugs and the like
was a hospital when Frank was
born there. Then it was a cancer
clinic, and now it's kind of a
utility building, with Frank's
photo lab right there where he
began life.
The part of the building where
Frank works is 100 years old.
Soldiers from the Union army
were treated there.
Frank said he didn't do so
good in school. He got himself
pitched out for bad conduct. His
first assignment as a profession
al photographer was to get a pic
ture of Charles A. Lindbergh
when the Lone Eagle came back
from his history-making flight to
Paris in 1927.
"I was supposed to get the
Lone Eagle smiling," he said.
"Lindy didn't much care about
smiling. But I yelled 'smile, Lin
dy, smile it's my job." The
Colonel smiled."
