Of Eastern Sections
By UNITED PRESS
A- double-barreled storm sys
tem flooded rivers in West. Vir
ginia and blew into New , Eng
land with heavy snows today.
Two more storms teamed up
in the West," where wind-driven
snows moved southward out of
Wyoming;. From three to four
inches fell from' Denver south
ward, in Southeast Colorado and
delayed an - Air Force mei;cy
plane carrying a dying Indian
girl te a hospital.
The West Virginia rains to
talled 2.3T inches during 24
hours. Dozens of small streams
went over their banks, flooding
cellars,: and earth slides and
high water blocked several
highways.

Some schools were closed be
cause students couldn't get to
them. Although the worst of the
rains were over today, . an Ohio
river erest of 41.5 feet, a foot
and a half above flijod stage,
was expected at Point Pleasant,

Chimpanzee Tours
New York Rooftops
New York (U.R) An anti
social -chimpanzee from Detroit
played King Kong for ten har
ried hours Wednesday and took
"an unscheduled tour of the roof
tops of New York.
The chimp, whose real nam'
is. Mike, never made it to . the j
Empire State building as did
King Kong in the old movie
which was shown on television
last week. But he scampered
up and down fire escapes and
swung- from television antenna
to the delight of hundreds of
neighborhood youngsters. '
By the time Mike submitted
te an ignominious capture in a
ladies rest room, police and
Humane Society officials had
the feeling they wouldn't have
had much more trouble with
giant King Kong himself.
The five-foot, 80-pound Mike
began his day on the town
about noon when he broke out
of a cage in the apartment of
Frank Quinn, a nightclub en
tertainer. -
Mike dived out a window and
went visiting like no visitor to
Manhattan's lower East- Side
ever went visiting before."
