Strides Made in
Weather Forecasting
Great strides have been made
in forecasting weather since
Congress passed the National
Service act in 1871, Stanley J.
Lacy, weather bureau forecaster,
told Rotarians here Tuesday.
Speaking at a luncheon meet
ing of the Medford club at the
Jackson hotel Lacy discribed the
science of observing, recording
and broadcasting weather infor
mation. The increasing import
ance of accurate weather infor
mation to agriculture and indus
try, and in safeguarding life and
property from damage caused
by floods and hurricanes - was
emphasised. .
The electronic brain is being
enlisted 'in the campaign for im
proved weather forecasting,
Lacy said. Destruction from hur
ricanes on the eastern seaboard
two years ago was greater be
cause of incidents of human er
ror in pre-storm information. In
creasing use of electronic com
puters in evaluating weather
data will eventually eliminate
much of the human factor, he
said. .
Lacy was introduced by Rot
ary program chairman Emmett
Bullard. Cole Holmes, in a brief
ceremony preceding the pro
gram, lauded Rotarians who
have played an active role in
Boy Scout activities. H. D.
Christensen, president elect of
the Medford club, and George
C. Flanagan were singled out
for special commendation. All
who have been active in making
Rotary Troop 5 outstanding in
the field of scouting were com
plimented by Holmes.

tion program is underway in
