Scientists Plan High
Altitude Photos of
Life of Hurricanes
Washington (U.R)
Govern-,
ment scientists hope with the
help of .high altitude rockets to
photograph some of this year's
hurricanes in the act of being
born, growing up, aging, and
dying.
V With such photos and other
information the Weather Bureau
hopes in time to perfect methods
of forecasting the mammoth
tropical storms which annually
threaten or ravage the Gulf and
Atlantic coasts.
The bureau also hopes ulti
mately to find means of steering
hurricanes to make them miss
populated areas.
Part of Research
The photography program will
be part of a big hurricane re-
Betty Hutton, blonde bombshell
and her great all-star review
will appear twice daily, at 3 and
9 p. m., at the San Francisco
195S Auto Show at the Civic
Auditorium, Jan. 7 through 15.
