CHICAGO HIT
BY BIG STORM
CycIonic Disturbance
"Straddles" Worlds Fair
Ground Sunday

CHICAGO, July 3.-(UP).-.
A terrific wind and hail storm of
cyclonic proportions swept Sec
tions of Chicago and it's western
suburbs yesterday and caused
damage estimated at between
100000 and $1,000.
Roaring in from the west be-
tween 2 and 3 a. M, the storm
snapped off huge trees at their
bases, flattened houses in Glen
Elyn, a western suburb, blew out
all the windows in entire business
blocks, swept chimneys off houses
and caved in the roofs of other
buildings.
Rainfall of 1.63 inches was re-
corded throughout the Chicago
area, but the heavy damage was
confined to well-defined sections
where the storm cut paths as
clean as scythe could cut
through a field of grain.
The heaviest damage was in
the the suburbs of Wheaton, Glen
Elyn. St. Charles, Elgin and Lam,
bard. A path several hundred
feet wide was cut through the
center of Glen Elyn and LON,
bard.
The heavy part of the storm
apparently split into several sec
tions. One hit the western edge
of the city, where large building:
caved in under the impact and
frame houses were moved Oft
their foundations.
Hail stones an inch in diameter
fell during the storm, which last
ed approximately II minutes. In
the western suburbs it was the
fourth severe hail storm OF the
year.
Near St. Charles, 40 summer
cottages were wrecked. Four
women occupants were injured
seriously enough to require treat
ment in hospitals.
An alrplane hangar at Elgln
was carried a quarter-mile by the
cyclone.
Two of the fan-like sections of
the storm "straddled" the worlds
fair ground. On the grounds,
where only the comparatively
light winds were felt, many win
dows caved in and part of wall
of the travel and transport build

Bob Paris Was Important Cog in
Brilliant Bison Athletic Machine

During the last year the Bison
at the North Dakota Agricultural
college have copied two titles
from the north central confer.
ence, one In football and one in
basketball.
No little credit must go to Rob-
ert Paris, Bismarck, senior il the
school of science Of literature,
who this year completed three
years on the team, two as regu-
lar center and third as tackle.
During his entire career on the
Bison team Paris rarely needed q
substitute and was never out
played or never was hurt, which
in itself is quite q record.
Described by Bob Lowe, assist
ant football coach, as one Of the
most powerful linemen the Bison
ever had, Bob has made his ath-
letic mark at the agricultural COL
lege.
