Trees were uprooted at thg Whitney, the Arnold Barney and other homes about town. Garbage cans were blown from one home to another, tubs and buckets, tree limbs, and numerous other items were be-ing gathered up Monday by townspeople. The city trucks were busy throughout the day hauling limbs from trees blown over the sidewalks and streets throughout town. At least one electric light pole in the Map-leton area was blown over. The wind storm was describ-ed by one man who had been in a cyclone in Florida, as be-ing of similar proportions. Plain followed the wind but by Tuesday the weather was back on its good behavior. The weatherman reported however, that the area is in for another storm this weekend. The people of this area, how-ever are thankful that the winds which visit this part of the country are tame compared with the hurricanes which have wrecked havoc in the south-ern and eastern parts of the United States recently. It is interesting to note that the chief of the U.S. Weather Bu-reau ' said Tuesday that man stands on "the threshold of possible control" of one of na-ture's most powerful and des-tructive phenomenon the hurricane. Among the possible meth-ods of control under study, said Dr. Francis W. Reichel-derfe- r, are seeding clouds with dry ice to sap the tremendous energy of a hurricane or blast-ing the whirling tropical winds apart with atomic or conven tional explosions. Dr. Reichelderfer's sugges-tion that hurricane control might become possible marked a significant change in Weath-er Bureau thinking. Until now, as he put it, the idea of such large-scal- e weath-er control was a taboo subject or one "only discussed in whis-pers" among meteorologists. With satellites, he said, it should become possible to catch the hurricanes when they are "young and we have the best chance of spoiling them." Among the methods of con- - trol which the Weather Bur- - eau plans to start studying soon, he said, is ripping the storm's circulation apart with ' conventional or nuclear explo- - sives a suggestion frequently made but dismissed in the past. Volume Sixty-eig-ht THE SPRINGVILLE (UTAH) HERALD, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1961 Price 10c Number 42 Peoples, Citizens parties set nominating primaries Tuesday Springville politics came into the limelight this week with announcement by both the People's Party and the Citizen's Party that they will each hold a public nominating primary meeting next Tuesday evening at 7:30. The Citizens Party meeting will be in the high school audi-torium, called by Chairman Le-Ro- y Tingey, while the meet-ing of the People's Party is scheduled for Brookside School, under direction of Chairman Bud Schardine. Nominations will be in order at the meetings for candidates for the office of mayor and two city councilmen to fill the expired terms of Mayor J. Em-me- tt Bird and Councilmen Ruel Crandall and Blaine Clyde. All three officials were put in office by the Citizen's Party, Councilman Frank Me-mory being the successful councilman candidate from the People's Party. While several Springville men have been contacted con-cerning their availability to run for city office, the field is wide open, said one party worker, as he pointed out the difficulties encountered in se-curing qualified men not too busy to serve the city. When a citizen takes an elective office, it is not for material gain. He is open to criticism on all sides and mnnv havp fminH if- a tVinnlr- - less job. On the other hand, some men feel it their patrio-tic duty to give of their time and talents and ofttimes neg-lect their own interests to serve the city. It is this latter type of men, the city is seeking. Party leaders Wednesday ex-pressed a desire to have any qualified man, who feels he has time to serve in the ca pacity of city mayor or coun-cilman, to make his name known. Quite often the best man remains in the back-ground, it was stated. At an organization meeting of the People's Party held re-cently, Bud Schardine was named chairman; John S wen-so- n, secretary; Floyd Stewart, treasurer; Frank Memory, plat-form chairman; Harold Bart-let- t, nominating chairman; Ed-g- el Oldroyd and Bill Jones, publicity chairmen. Springville man ' heads National Scout Council ' Wilford W. Clyde, Spring- - ville contracting firm head and ardent supporter of Scout ac-tivity, was presi- - dent of the Utah National Parks Council, Boy Scouts of America, for the tenth con- - secutive year, at a meeting Friday evening in Provo.
