Trio Works on Plan To Cut Western Oregon Rainfall For Use in Eastern Oregon Corvallis U.R) Three Oregon State college meteorologists have come up with a plan which they believe would decrease rain fall along the coast in the winter and send it to eastern Oregon. Fred Decker, Russell Lincoln and John Day said the Oregon coast range would provide an ideal site for a large-scale test aimed at suppressing coastal rainfall in the winter. It would be done by "treating" clouds, or overseeding them to reduce precipitation. Their idea would be to provide so many tiny ice crystals high in the clouds that none would grow into large enough size to pro duce rain. The ice crystals might be introduced into the clouds by means of .dry ice from planes or chemicals from ground generators. An experiment now is under way at Mt. Washington, N.H., to observe the role of overseeding clouds to cut down precipitation. PIP.TIIRF 7IIBFS i I iv vim wwiiv REJUVENATED Is your picture tube dull and weak?
