Roads, Cities Hit By Kansas Snow
(Compiled from United Press)
A slowly-ebbing blizzard packing 60-mile-an-hour winds paralyzed great areas of Kansas today as drifts piled as high as 10 feet in spots.
Weather officials said the blizzard warning would be continued today in north central areas of the state. The Kansas Highway Patrol said more than half of the highways in northern Kansas were impassable early today. All east-west highways in northern Kansas were blocked, the patrol reported.
Russell had drifts of 10 feet and schools in most affected areas were closed for the second day. A bus loaded with school children was snowbound near Natoma last night, but the group spent the night safely at a farmhouse.
Scores of children were stranded at schools until police cars and vehicles from the Hutchinson Naval Air Station were sent to take them to their homes.
At Hutchinson, where four inches of snow fell on top of ice-covered streets, hotels and motels were jammed. All roads in the area were blocked by drifts of three and four feet.
All major roads around Garden City and Wichita were blocked by the wind-whipped drifts. Automobile and bus traffic was paralyzed in most sections, but trains ran on schedule.
A report from the National Guard
at Norton indicated all east-west roads in that area were impassable and scores of motorists sought shelter in the town.
Other hard-hit areas included Salina, McPherson, Newton, Kingman and Arkansas City.
Major highways blocked were U. S. 36 at Kensington, U. S. 40 west of Salina, U. S. 56 west of McPherson, K-14 north of Ellsworth, K-15 southwest of Ellsworth, U. S. 40 east of Hays, U. S. 24 between Bogue and Osborne, U. S. 183 north of Hays, and U. S. 36 at Smith Center.
All schools in the Colly area with the exception of high schools in the larger towns were closed. High school basketball tournaments in the section were postponed.
Missouri, already receiving snow in southwest, central and northeast portions, was slated for more snow today.

"We believe that this committee should have only interested people who petition admittance to membership," the report says. "The selection should be impartial as there is no political purpose in a committee of this type."

Cool, Man, Real Cool Jazz Club Hits It Up
If things keep on this way, the KU Jazz Club will have to hire a hall for its meetings.
The club met Thursday night and began with about 30 on hand, but by 9 p.m., with a 6-man pickup session going, the seats were filled and about 15 music lovers were clustered in the door.
One member of the combo was Ernie Shelby, Los Angles, Cal. junior and KU track ace. Shelby was playing a mean bongo and thoroughly enjoying himself.
About 9:30 p.m. a girl in the audience made a request, the piano player got her to come up front to take the vocal. She stayed around for four or five numbers, including a scat version of "Take the A' Train." She was a little shaky on some of the words for "I Cover the Waterfront," but she knew all the notes. The whole gig (that's jazz talk) was relaxed and spontaneous, with the musicians talking back and forth and asking the audience for requests when the going got slow.
The audience was quiet, but quite happy with the music. The band played all styles, and kept right on going until closing time.
The Colt revolver was invented by a sailor instead of a gunsmith. His name was Samuel Colt.
