 General Robert E. Lee surren- dered at Appomattox Court House in 1865. In 1868, Grant became the eighteenth President of the United States:
 E, Last Friday afternoon, the high school enjoyed an annual skiing party out on. Anvil and Newton Mountains. The day was perfect for the event and the exodus was made in cars which took us to Satellite Field. From there we hiked over Anvil Mountain to Me Carthy's cabin where we estab- lished our base camp. The unusu- :al amount of snow made the Fmountainside ideal for skiing. It was possible to begin at the top of Mount Newton and ski down the entire mountain to the old Army ski resort.
 Word from George Bourbon states that he spent his Easter va cation with claSSmate at Roches- ter, Minnesota. He visited the Mayo Clinic and thought it was very interesting. He has already seen some large mallardS and Ca nadian geese.

 The reports cast doubt on specu- lation that Moscow would lead Soviet satellites in southeastern Europe in a direct military attack against Yugoslavia.

 It turned back to the northeast in North Carolina and Southern Virginia in a dying effort to re- turn to the Atlantic Ocean where it was spawned a week ago.
 The bowling monster which rip ped into Florida's gold coast on the east side Friday, cutting a multi million dollar damage sWath, was described by Weathermen as just another heavy Windstorm today.
 One life was lost in Florida and one in Georgia.
 A preliminary survey brought damage estimates varying from 4O,OO0,OOO to $5O,OOO,OOO.

Hurricane Does Terrific Damage In Southern Florida

MIAMI, Fla. (P)-A devastating tropical hurricane left hundreds homeless and caused property damage estimated at many millions of dollars Saturday as it sWirled across Florida to the Gulf.
 The storm cut wide sWath of destruction on its way across the peninsula after pounding the east coast and soaring the Lake Okee- chobee region.
 It swept through FloridaS rich citrus belt and was last reported by the weather bureau over Pasco county on the edge of the Gulf of Mexico above Tampa.
 Stuart Red Cross disaster off CialS reported at least 500 home less in the east coast city.
 At West Palm Beach the Red cross estimated more than 2,OOO of the citys 1000 homes had been damaged. Two companies of na- tional guardsmen patrolled the streets to prevent footing of stores whose windows had been smashed. West Palm Beach sheriff John R. Kirk said they were needed to curb vandalism in the city'S badly hit business district.
 A number of bridges were im- paSSable because of WaShOutS and wind damage.
 Two bridges were impossible around Lake Okeechobee. But the lake itself-big killer of the 1928 hurricane-behaved like lamb as the hurricane swept past. U. s. army engineers said water was well below the danger level. That took the pressure off at the start.
 Stuart reported six casualties and Fort Pierce two. The only death to date was a swimmer drowned off Miami Friday.
 Red Cross and national guard units teamed up to evacuate SO storm refugees in West Palm Beach when winds whipped off the roof of a hurricane shelter.
