Brookings escaped the big snow
storms and tornadoes which visited
the middle western states, doing mil
lions of dollars damage and killing
scores Of people, but it caught the
tail end of the storm Tuesday night
when about an inch or two Of snow
fell, accompanied by a high wind.
April is always a month of freakish
weather, but this year it fits well into
the style Of spring we have been hav-
ing. No one was greatly surprised
to see it snow. However, it likely
was the last big snowstorm of
the winter and we shall now doubtless
enjoy some real spring weather.
