Melting snows in the mountains east of the city have increased the flow of Willard creek until a fair sized stream is running into the reservoir back of the dam. The water has backed up and is now pouring out of the dam In a hundred places. It was Intended that the water would rise in the reservoir until it ran over the spillway. Instead, the water runs through the rocks of the spillway and has washed tons of earth from between the rock spillway and the earthen sides.
