Flip-FlOps This Week Un= usual /; Hits One Extreme
 Then Another

New England weather is noted for its prankS, but the fip-hops 1t did this week would have driven a rub ber-necked giraffe dizzy trying to follow them. Waterburians, knowing what pranks New England weather can play, only shrugged their shoui- ders and hoped for the best.
 February was fickle enough, but when March arrived the weather somersaults began. Tuesday, March 1, saw the temperature drop close to zero and was one of the coldest days of the winter. There was a wind of gale proportions.
 Wednesday, March 2, Waterbury's good citizens went forth bundled in furs and wools, only to have the mercury climb dizzily. The tempera- ture rose to 60 degrees, one of the warmest March days the city has ever experienced.
 Thursday, the 3d. found many debating whether or not 1o get out their summer clothes, only to have the temperature drop like Q plum met and again hit close to zero.
 Then yesterday it was overcast and cold, the weather again con- founding everyone by not going from one extreme to the other.
