Col. Albrecht Transferred
To Bismarck, North Dakota.
Col. Frank M. Albrecht, eon-in
law of Mrs. Frances N. Williams
of Tryon, has been transferred
from Fort Sam Houston, Texas, to
the Garrison Engineer District,
Bismarck, N. D., according to an
article in a Texas newspaper.
Col. Albrecht was presented with
a Certificate of Achievement
Award by Lt. Col. LeRoy Lutes,
Fourth Army Commander. The
colonel has served with the Fourth
Army since June 1946, when he
and his family moved from Tryon
following his return from over
seas where he was chief engineer,
construction division and later
chief of operations and training,
ensrineer division.
While in North Dakota Col. Al
brecht will direct some of the
work on the Missouri River Devel
opment including “Man’s biggest
effort to control nature.” Garrison
Dam in North Dakota under con
struction by army engineers will
be the world’s largest rolled earth
structure. It will have 8 tunnels
carrying water under the two
mile-long dam to power turbines.
The object of dams on the Missouri
is to reduce the effects of drouth
and eliminate floods, help naviga
tion and make electrical power.
Five big dams and 120 smaller ones
with numerous irrigation and pow
er works, miles of walls and
levees are on the program of de
velopment.
Mrs. Albrecht writes that it has
been very cold there, 24 degrees
below zero. Snowbound people are
very friendly and cooperate in
many ways, in assuring parents
that school children are safe and
will have to spend the night at a
farm house because of the blizzard.
Col. and Mrs. Albrecht are mak
ing their home at T?*t. Lincoln,
Garrison district headquarters.
Their son .Frank Me jr. is a junior
in the Bismarck high school. Their
daughter, Miss Jane Albrecht is in
New York City.
Restaurants keep cutting pie
smaller and smaller. What this
country needs is a minimum wedge
law.—Pathfinder.
