Severe Storm Last Winter Nearly Brought Down Golden Gate Bridge SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The famed Golden Gate bridge probably would have been destroyed had last winter's severe storm lasted 25 minutes longer. It was revealed today. William D. Hadeler, chairman of the bridge finance committee, announced tests had disclosed how near the long span came to being lost. Would Have Gone "If last winter's storm had lasted 25 minutes longer we probably would have lost the bridge," Hadeler said. He said his statement was based on information from Cilfford E. Paine, consulting engineer, following wind tunnel tests at Seattle. The extreme danger to the bridge was caused by strong winds which blew at right angles to the world's longest single span structure, stretching 4200 feet across the harbor entrance. The bridge itself is a mile and a half from portal to portal. The storm occurred last Dec. 1 and caused the span to be closed to traffic for three hours before the danger was over. Swings 22 Feet Hadeler said the test charts showed the wind twisted the bridge so violently that the railings on the center span swung 22 feet, or 11 feet in an east-west direction. The greatest previous movement had been a 45-inch swing in 1950. On Dec. 1 the wind had reached 50 miles an hour, at a right angle to the bridge at 3 p.m. county government and the cities on behalf of commissive planning to assure growth of the county. high said that the county and could work together for mutual benefit in planning roads, industries, subdivisions other developments.

Swings 22 Feet Hadeler said the test charts showed the wind twisted the bridge so violently that the railings on the center span swung 22 feet, or 11 feet in an east-west direction. The greatest previous movement had been a 45-inch swing in 1950. On Dec. 1 the wind had reached 50 miles an hour, at a right angle to the bridge at 3 p.m. Then came frequent gusts at 60 to 65 miles an hour. Finally, at 6 p.m., the wind roared at 69 miles an hour and the bridge was ordered closed. Hadeler said the wind tunnel tests showed that 25 more minutes' strain would have proved disastrous. "Scared to Death" "The tests on the bridge just completed revealed that the bridge as presently constructed, would have gone down," Hadeler said. "The progress report scared us to death." He explained the tests would not be completed until later this year. Hadeler said a reconstruction project on the long span, to remove some of the wind resistant objects, might cost as much as $2.000,000.

Window Display Traces History Of Holy Bible Through the Ages Beginning yesterday, the Anaheim Ministerial Union, Church Association, and Council of Church Women, who are jointly sponsoring the New Revised Standard Version of the Bible dedication service in Fremont school auditorium on Tuesday, Sept. 30 at 7:30 p.m. is presenting a display of Bibles through the centuries in the window of the S. Q. R. store. The Bibles were gathered from various groups and sources, but especially from the lifelong collection of the Rev. Wesley Havermale, rector of Church of the Messiah of Santa Ana. This display traces the history of the Book of Books from the early Hebrew scrolls and Babylonian tablets down through the Greek manuscripts of the first Christian centuries, the medieval editions of St. Jerome's Vulgate translation; the Reformation Bibles to Luther, Tyndale, and Coverdale, and the famous King James version of 1611 and its successors. The display culminates in the new Revised Standard Version of the King James, in which many scholars cooperating from 1937 to 1951, have presented an unsurpassed edition which preserves the beauty of the King James but clarifies difficult words and passages by the use of recently discovered ancient Bible manuscripts and modern speech idioms. Rare Items Displayed Especially rare items on display are a leaf from an Armenian manuscript (hand written) Bible of the 15th century; a leaf from a manuscript psalter from the "Book of the Hours" used in monasteries in the 14th century and beautifully illuminated; another 15th century manuscript psalter; a 1585 edition of St. Jerome's third century Vulgate Bible; and an 1837 reprint of William Tyndale's 1525 New Testament. Nearly all of the English Reformation Bibles are represented in full or in single pages, including the famous "breeches Bible" of 1560, where in Genesis 3:7 instead of the traditional ". . . And they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves aprons . . . " it reads, ". . . And they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves breeches." Record of Sacrifices As one gazes at this display with the colorful pictorial backdrop, one can visualize the untold sacrifices of faithful Christians which have made it possible for us to have a Bible in every home today, according to the Rev.

Eisenhower, Republican presidential candidate clad in a plaid smoking jacket, bid farewell to Marylanders here last night as his campaign train headed for a stumping tour into the southlands. Flash Flood Causes Woman's Death LOS ANGELES (AP)—Thunder showers and high winds hit sections of Southern California last night, causing several power failures. A flash flood was the indirect cause of one death. Mrs. J. A. Holt, 58, died of a heart attack after she fled to higher ground from her cabin in Frazier Park near Lebec. The sudden flood sent a 6-foot high wall of water down Pine Flat Canyon. The rushing waters left the area and nearby mountain roads littered with boulders and debris. Mrs. Holt was the wife of the caretaker at the Pentecostal Conference grounds. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles area was briefly buffeted by a thundershower which was accompanied by gusty winds and lightning. Several power failures were reported, but no major damage was done. The showers passed along the city's northern edge and into Burbank, Pasadena and the Verdugo foothills. Several burglar alarms in Pasadena were set off by strong winds and a tree toppled onto a parked automobile in Burbank. Strong winds, accompanied by thunder, lightning and some rain were reported in Monrovia, Arcadia and San Gabriel. The storm also touched the Pomona, Newhall and El Monte districts according to the California Highway Patrol. Record of Sacrifices As one gazes at this display with the colorful pictorial backdrop, one can visualize the untold sacrifices of faithful Christians which have made it possible for us to have a Bible in every home today, according to the Rev. Howard S. Congdon, chairman of the observance committee. We can visualize the early Christians hiding their precious Greek copies of the New Testament books, the patient monks in the dark ages copying by hand St. Jerome's Vulgate Bible to preserve it in a period of barbarism which little appreciated the learning of the ancient world; the courage of Luther, Wycliffe and Tyndale, who braved death in order to translate the Bible into the language of their people. He said one will even see a Russian Bible printed in 1918, the year when the Communist revolution made such an undertaking dangerous or impossible, the Rev. Congdon said. This display hopes to make a little more clear the appreciation American Christians should have for their religious liberty and the priceless opportunity to possess freely a copy of "the best seller of all time." Committee responsible for the window display includes the Rev. John K. Saville, Mrs. Chester Ferris and Harry Coughlan, S. Q. R. store display manager. Burglar Takes $100 in Cash Yvonne Mae Murray, tenant of Ant. 10, California Apartments, 118 S. Los Angeles st., reported last night that someone had entered her apartment and stolen $100 in $20 bills. She said she was unable to unlock the door to the apartment when she returned to it last night. She called the janitor, Fred Robinson, for aid and he pointed out that the transom over the door was open, and the screws that had held it shut were lying on the sill.
