Flqodb Laye CJyeF 5, (MM) Homeless
By United Press International
More than 5,000 persons were
homeless Thursday and new
cities were threatened by rain
swollen flood crests rolling
through Dixie.
One flood crisis followed an
other in a week-long downpour
of record-breaking rains across
Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama
and Georgia. Four persons had
drowned two in Mississippi
and one each in Alabama and
Louisiana.
Plans were made for emer
gency shelters in public build
ings and churches, national
guardsmen were mobilized, and
damage mounted into the mil
lions of dollars in the stricken
area. Alabama Gov. John Pat
terson called 'the situation
"alarming.' '
Hattiesburg, Miss., and Mont
gomery, Ala., were the latest
cities to become victims of the
floods.

forced from their homes in the
southeast Mississippi - Hatties
burg area, many of them fleeing
aboard National Guard amphib
ious crafts. Nearly half of the
city was submerged by the con
verging waters of the Leaf Riv
er and Bowie Creek. At least
two persons drowned in the
area and four were missing.
At Montgomery, the Alabama
River was expected to rise to 48
feet, 13 above flood stage, by
Friday. Plans were made to
move residents of low-lying
areas into church buildings.
Birmingham, Ala., where 1,200
persons were forced from their
homes, got a brief dry spell
after a February rain record of
16.53 inches was set at 6 a.m.
More downpours were expected
Friday.
While the South soaked, other
parts of the nation weathered
floods and snow.
Wisconsin's Kickapoo and
Pine Rivers went over their
banks, closing schools and
roads in the Viola and Reads
town areas. Heavy rains flood
ed dozens of streets in Detroit
and the Kawkawlin River lap
ped into lowlands north of Bay
City, Mich.
In the West, a late February
snowstorm rolled from the
Rocky Mountains to the North-,
ern ' Plains. Colorado's Rabbit
Ears Pass had 15 inches of
fresh snow, two inches of snow
fell on western South Dakota,
and Minnesota was under a
heavy snow warning.
In the Southland, the roster
of beleaguered cities included
Laurel, Miss., where 100' fami
lies fled their homes, and Shu-
buta, Miss., where National
Guardsmen helped 200 persons
escape the surging waters of
the usually placid Chickasaw-
hay River. ,
The floods also made 100 per
sons homeless '. at Northport,
Ala., and drove 70 from their
dwellings at Tuscaloosa, Ala.
Georgia's flood threats were
easing under 'sunny skies, but
the Oostanaula River poured
over several residential streets
at Rome and 10 families had, to
move in with friends and rela
tives. In Louisiana, the Highway
Department reported 23 roads
closed and said 500 road proj
ects now underway will be de
layed because of high waters.

"GIVE A MAN A TOUGH JOB AND A CHANCE TO GO SOMEWHERE
...AND HE'LL BREAK HIS NECK TO DO IT"
In 1958 when Bill Ebben was only a few months
away from his engineering degree at the University
of Detroit, he was in touch with 15 prospective
employers.
He chose the Michigan Bell Telephone Com
pany because: "This company offered the kind of
engineering management opportunity I wanted
and they weren't kidding."
One of Bill's first assignments was a survey of
Michigan Bell's big Central District to find out
how long available building space could accom
modate the switching equipment required by rapid
telephone growth. "I wasn't given any instruc
tion," Bill says, "I was just told to do the job."
So Bill did it. His report became the guide for
planning and budgeting future construction.
On his next move, Bill proved he could handle
supervisory responsibility. He was sent to head up
a group of seven engineers to design a new long
distance switching center for Saginaw, Michigan
a $4,000,000 engineering project.
Today, Bill is on the staff of Michigan Bell's
Program Engineer. He's working on a system for
mechanized control of telephone construction costs.
How does Bill feel about his job? "Give a man
a tough job and a chance to go somewhere and
he'll break his neck to do it. Of course, I don't
think I'm going to be running the business next
year but I'm getting every opportunity to hit the
top. You don't worry about opportunity here you
worry about whether you're as big as the job."
you're a man like Bill Ebben, a man who can
size up a job, figure out what needs to be done, and
then do it then you should get in touch with one of
the Bell Companies. Visit your Placement Office for
literature and additional information.
"Our number one aim is to have in all
management jobs the most vital, intelli
gent, positive and imaginative men we
can possibly find'
Frederick R. Kappel, President
American Telephone & Telegraph Co.
