Cool Weather Checks Flow Of Creek Water A change in the weather this week had its rewarding aspects especially for those people in Brookside and other areas along the stream who remem-bered the flood in the spring of 1952. They can now breath and sleep a little easier thanks to the weather's check on the flood waters of Hobble Creek. Over the weekend the ram-paging stream had washed sev-eral feet from the Cecil Zim-merman garden as it made a sharp turn west threatening to change its course out the east end of Brookside. The city came to the aid of the property owners who had tried to rebuild the bank with wire baskets of rock, and had heavy boulders pushed to the bank. Mon., Mayor J. Emmett Bird and other city officials decided to fill the washed-ou- t area with rock and later in the day dumped three large loads of rock near the washed-ou- t bank. Volunteer workers with pick-up trucks of rocks and dirt also came to the rescue and members from the local JC Club assisted Monday evening to relieve people who had wor-ked all day. It was a united effort of neighbors, city offi-cials and other citizens to save the land from washing away. After the flood of 1952, the creek was cleared of rocks and debris and made deeper to eliminate the danger of future floods. But the exact course the stream will take cannot al-ways be determined so a con-stant watch will be made by property owners and the city in case the weather turns sud-denly warm again.
