No Way Seen To
Predict Storms
WASHINGTON, June 11 UU;>_
Weather scientists confessed
Thursday they still have fuund rn,
adequate way to predict tornadoes
—even with the magic of radar.
A former Navy weather expert
in Baltimore, Md., had declared
a storm-tracking radar network
could have cut life and property
losses drastically in the tornadoes
that hit the Midwest and New
England.
Retired Capt. Howard T. Orville,
now a techincal consultant for Ben-
dix Aviation Corp., said such u
system would be relatively cheap
and rob the twisters of their
from a "motherly type" landlady
on the fringe of Houston's Negro
district.
Fultz said the once-wealthy at-
torney had been working as a soda
jerk, phone book deliveryman anil
answering blind ads that read "I
have money to invest in going
proposition."
tn Chicago Weinzeibaum las-
year sat at a custom-designed desk
costing several thousand dollars,
believed to be one of the must ex-
pensive in town. His creditors auc-
tioned it off, built in bar and all.
Weinzeibaum, who arrived here
Feb. 18 from Los Angeles, Calif.,
said he had also been in New York,
Bostofl. St. Louis and other cities
since he left Chicago. He denied
leaving the country, although
swarms of reporters interviewed
him severt*l times during bis ex-
pensive Brazilian jaunt.
The lawyer was using the nanx-
"Maury Stuart" when arrested
here.

Fchu of Precipitation
Wjxler said radar provides an
cho of precipitation tn thunder-
storms which usually accompany
tornadoes. He said Gelln Stout of
he Illinois State Water Survey re-
ported i vently that he spotted a
tornado on a radar screen.
It is the only case of its kind,
Wexler said. He Mid he did not
know whether Stoat spotted some-
:hing and then concluded it was a
tornado or whether he actually re-
cognized it as a twister before it
struck.
Weather bureau experts pointed
out that the blips tornadoes would
produce on present radar screens
Li e too small and indistinguishable
from thunderstorms to provide
much help in spotting trouble a-
heud of time.
