A spokesman at the Muskogee office of the Veterans

85025. You should enclose a letter to her father in am un-
sealed, stamped envelope. If the Arizona search does not
locate him, the next step would be to write the Veterans
Administration in Washington, D.C., for a national rec-
ord search.

Can you tell me if anyone in the Oklahoma City area
appraises old postage stamps? Also, if they are of value,
I might be interested in selling them and would like the

A spokesman at Brown's Coins and Stamps, 529 SW 29,
said you can have a free appraisal on a small number of
stamps. A larger number appraised would cost you a
fee. The shop also might be interested in buying your
stamps. Joe H. Crosby, president of the Oklahoma Phila-
telic Society, said anyone interested in stamp collecting
is welcome to visit the Oklahoma City Stamp Club.

Vietnamese fire ripped
into a column of weeping,
weary refugees fleeing
from An Loe today, killing
5 to 10 of them and wound-
ing at least 30 to 40.
Associated Press corre-
spondent Richard Blystone
reported from the scene on
Highway 13 that most of
the column of about 1,000
refugees were women and
children, and that about
half the casualties were
children.
About 10,000 South Viet-
namese had set out at
dawn Monday from An
Loc, Blystone said. As
they continued their jour-
ney southward, part of
them came under a bar-
rage of either grenade or
mortar fire near the vil-
lage of Tau O, nine miles
south of An Loc.
I think we’d probably not
have seeded the second

fear of what it would have

result of large-scale at-
mospheric motions which
are totally beyond any hu-
man ability to manipulate.

RAPID CITY, S.D.
(CDN) — They thought it
would never happen here.
There had been floods
before in this resort town,
nestled in the Black Hills
of Dakota. But it was nev-
er more than a few flooded
basements and a foot or
two of water.
Because many people
failed to heed warnings,
scores are dead and many
hundreds are missing.
The people here have
many explanations for the
apathy that preceded the
floods — the worst in re-
cent U.S. history.
Many blame themselves,
others blamed city offi-
cials or news media.
“There was no warn-
1 n g." complained Mrs.
Joean Harvill, whose trail-
er on the west side of town
was left a twisted wreck
by the flood waters. “We
were watching TV and the
announcer said stay tuned.
Suddenly the electricity
went out and in three min-
utes there was a small tid-
al wave outside our door."
Many people felt the
warning should have been
stronger.
"T e 1 e v 1 s 1 o n wasn’t
alarming enough,” said
Mrs. Linda Daniels. “They
did not say evacuate."
Her husband, Sonny, did
not hestitate, however.

SOUTHWEST CITY, Mo.
(AP) — One Oklahoma
man was killed and anoth-

of Southwest City, near the
Oklahoma border.

them about 5 p.m., an hour
before the devastating
rains began.
The experiments were
conducted by the Institute
of Atmospheric Sciences,
South Dakota School of
Mines & Technology “for
increasing water supply
and studying the dynamics
of hail production," the
copyright article quotes an
unnamed federal official
as saying.
The newspaper qupted
Prof. Arnett Dennis, chief
of the institute's meteorol-
ogical analysis group, as
saying the experiments
“had totally and absolute-
ly nothing to do with the
storm that hit Rapid City.
I would stake my life on
that."
He said salt was dropped
from a plane, standard
practice in the Institute's
study for six years.
The article also quoted
professor Lewis Grant, a
professor of atmospheric
sciences at Colorado State
University, as saying “an
unusual atmospheric situa-
tion existed last Friday
that might have signaled
caution with cloud seed-
ing."
“In a normal situation
there is no particular risk
with cloud seeding because
the stuff moves off the
hills. But that was a situa-
tion you want to be real
careful with because
there’s nothing to push the
moisture off the hills,"
Grant said.
Grant also said he
“couldn’t answer what ef-
fect the seeding had," the
article said.
National Weather Serv-
ice spokesmen said Satur-
day that atmospheric
conditions at the time of
the storm were likely to
occur only once in 100
years.
Grant said cloud seeding
experiments have been
going on for 20 years, but
we really don’t
have definite answers as
to what the effect of seed-
ing has on cumulus
clouds," he said, adding
that cumulus clouds were
the type evident in the
storm.
The paper said Dennis
described two experi-
ments. The first was made
between 3 p.m. and 4 p.m.,
north-northwest of Rapid
City “some 10 to 20
miles." The other experi-
ment was described as
south-southeast of the city
“about the same dis-
tance."
He said the storm origi-
nated some 15 miles west
of Rapid City.
The story attributed the
statement to
If we had known
Many people said they what was going to happen,
heard the warnings but ex-
pected flood waters to be
moderate.
One man, Leslie Ged-
nalske, admitted that he
“ignored the warning."
Donald Barnett, the 29-
year-old mayor, said the
city did all it could.
“People didn't believe
us," he said. “We got the
word out."
Barnett said he went on
television with an emer-
gency notice shortly after
10:15 p.m. Friday night.
Then he dispatched police,
firemen and volunteers to
knock on peoples' doors
with the warning.
“What do you do when
