Callahan Caught
Behind Flood; is
Mur6oned 3 Hrs

II. +. Callahan of this city was
marooned on the Redlands yesterday
by a cloudburst which filled the No
Thoroughfare Canon wash with a
raging red torrent which held him
with a horse and buggy for three
hours and 80 minutes before he dared
attempt the crossings; and, when he
did finally make it, the water reached
the floor of the rig.
He had been to the Yunker-Calla-
han quarry on business, when a ter
rifle storm broke in the hills south of
the city and he watched a terrible
flood sweep down the wash, until the
water was boiling and roaring to
s feet deep, rolling huge boulders
and logs down stream with a grind
ing and crashing that could be heard
for blocks. Conrad Strebbs. who has
lived on the Redlands for many
years, says he never saw the equal Of
yesterdays flood.

Boensch, who is playing his first

him a most dangerous factor in SHOW

is rather erratic and not in class
