SEND A KID TO CAMP
You Can Make Dream
Come True for Bobby

OF all the things he has
heard about camp, the thing
that impresses Bobby most is
a chance to sleep in a bed of
his own.
At Bobby's house, at least
three children have been crowd
ed into each bed for as long
as he can remember.
The 1O-year-old boy is one
of eight children. His Stepfa-
ther is openly hostile to him.
He refuses to believe anything
Bobby tells him. He beats him
for nothing.
Small wonder that Bobby has
a reputation for always being
ready to start a fight in school,
for being a behavior problem"
Only the hope of camp has
kept Bobby happy in recent
months.
He must have been waiting
for weeks at the door for a
social worker who had men,
toned camp earlier to come
back to discuss it with his
mother. For as she neared his
home he shouted, Mama, the
lady's coming" and dashed to
meet her, crying, Am I going
to camp" 4

AS the trial got under way,
Smilardo's attorney, Louis Kou-

Smllardo had made a bet with
an acquaintance and needed
the papers to win.
That was the only reason for
it-a joke, that's what it was, "

slant communication with the
forecaster on the floor below.
Every violent inch of its
course is tracked on the radar
screen. The data are relayed
to the forecaster, who combines
them with ship and hurricane
reconnaissance plane reports,
prevailing weather conditions
and background knowledge of
previous hurricanes in the area
to predict the hurricanes
course and behavior pattern.
Course Chartered
On maps spread out across
the top of five desks, Mr..
Hoover or the forecaster on
duty carefully records the
course of the hurricane and
estimates its path.
Forecasting chores are split
into three eight-hour shifts by
Mr.. Hoover, Mr.. Schmidt and
Kenneth NorqueSt when a hur-
ricane is in the area. But often
all three are on duty much
longer than eight hours at a
time. Once you start matching
wits with a hurricane you don't
like to quit, the forecasters ex-
plain.
| Advisory reports are issued
every six hours and a 24-hour
forecast also is made. They in
clude the direction and wind
velocity chiefly. When there is
immediate danger, bulletins are
issued every two hours and in
some cases special bulletins are
issued at shorter intervals.
I'VE try to give the general
public and interested parties
such as ships and airplanes as
much advance warning as pos
sible so they can take all pre-
cautions to protect themselves
and tn cir property" Mr..
Schmidt said.
/ The information also is
passed along to the other hur-
rlcane warning centers at
Miami, Boston, New Orleans
and San Juan. And frequently
forecasters at those stations
are making their own calcula-
tionS on the hurricane and
passing them on to the local
Office to aid in the forecaSting.
The warning centers are in
constant touch with each other.
At least once a hurricane
knocked out the power at the
Miami and New Orleans sta
tions and the Washington CEN
ter took over the job of track
ing it until they were back in
service, Mr.. Schmidt said.
Mr.. Hoover and all the other
forecasters try to avoid long
range predictions because the
more long range it is the more
likely they are to be off.

everything there is to know
about every hurricane in this
area since 1943.
Additional volumes, m a p S
and charts, prepared by the
bureaus research staff, pro-
vide him similar data on al
most every hurricane that has
battered the Atlantic coast
since 1904.
Here Since 1855
Mr.. Hoover, q slight, soft
spoken man, has been the local
bureaus hurricane forecaster-
researcher since 1855. The job
was created after Hurricane
lone changed her course radi-
cally that year and completely
confounded all the forecasters,
according to R. G. Schmidt,
chief meteorologist.
So the forecaster-researcher
not only predicts a hurricane,
he has to try to figure out
which way it will go, how fast,
and what effect other weather
clements will have on its be-
havior.
This is where all the back
ground data on previous hurri-
canes come in handy" Mr.
Hoover said. But it's wrong
to assume that just because
one hurricane reacted a certain
way under a given set OF
weather conditions that the
next one will behave the same
under similar conditions.
Hurricanes may have SINH
larities but no two hurricanes
are alike"
The Washington Hurricane
Warning Center is technically
responsible for hurricanes that
develop in or enter the area
from Cape Hatteras to, roughly
Block Island, R. I.
Few Start in Area
| Since few hurricanes actually
develop in this area, the local
forecaster has the slight ad-
vantage of being able to keep
track of a hurricane as it de-
velops in the South Atlantic or
Caribbean and moves up into
this area.
But this doesn't make his job
any easier. He has to contend
with other problems. For ex-
ample, hurricanes generally
travel much faster and are
more erratic when they reach
this area, Mr.. Hoover said.
When a hurricane moves into
the vicinity of Cape Hatteras.
it automatically becomes the
local warning center's baby"
1t generally is picked up first
by the coastal radar station at
Cape Hatteras and shortly
thereafter comes into the range
of a powerful new 100000

just above Mr.. Hoover's office.
The new airport radar in

The

Is Going
To Stick Ii Out
By GEORGE KENNEDY

By GEORGE KENNEDY
Now understand. There is
no doubt about it. The time
to take a vacation is in the
late summer or early fall.
Then your return is not to
Washington heat, but to the
finest season of our calen-
dar.
You are refreshed by the
cool fall air and ready to go
to work again and accom-
pliSh great things.
Sticking it out hasn't been
tough. The weather has been
wonderful. The cold front
that passed over Thursday
evening with a drenching
rain ushered in a week end
of glorious summer sunshine
at comfortable temperatures.
Yet it isn't easy. The early
vacationiStS nouncing
their departures keep sug-
geSting that it would be nice
to get away from it all.
They talk of Rehoboth and
Cape May and Lake George
and Winnipesaukee.
But the thing to do is to
wait until September or
even October then go to
Miami where the rates are
still low or to Puerto Rico
or the Virgin Islands.
o
THE RAMBLER WAS
strong in this conviction un-
til the other day when he
had occasion to stop in the
Offices of the National Park
Service in the Department
of Interior.
There was a rack display
ing folders selling all their
wares - just like a travel
agency.
While waiting to see
Conrad Wirth, the Rambler
selected a few cool ones. One
was Glacier National Park in
Montana where in the shad-
ow of mountains almost 2
miles high, snow that may
have fallen on Sperry Glacier
more than a century ago is
waiting it's turn to melt into
Avalanche Creek.
The folder quoted John
Muir:
Give a month at least to
this precious preserve. The
time will not be taken from
the sum of your life. Instead
of shortening, it will inde-
finitely lengthen it and make
you truly immortal"
Another was Olympic Ma
tional Park, 1400 square miles
of mountains, glaciers, lakes
and seacoast in the States
of Washington right across a
strait Of Puget Sound from
Vancouver Island. On a day
like today it would be nice to
be camping in the shade of
its virgin rain forest where
the Sikta spruce and Western
hemlock grow 200 feet high
from trunks 8-feet thick.
Isle Royale is a National
Park. 1t is the only large is
land in the chilly waters Of
Lake Superior. 1t is Is miles
off the Canadian coast but
it is part Of the State of
Michigan whose nearest
point is As miles away.
1t is As miles long and as
much as 9 miles wide and
contains several good-Sized
lakes.
Surrounded by 200 small
islands, it is the center of an
archipelago. There are no
roads and no automobiles.
You arrive from the Michi-
gan shore by boat. You can
put up at one of two lodges.
You can hire a guide but for
the most part you are going
to be on your own. And, un-
less you bring a portable
