Heavy snows which drifted from adjoining fields obliterated the highway (Monday). The driver left his vehicle when raging winds reduced visibility to zero and snow reached impassable depth. Because of work required on more im- portant roads, officials wouldn't venture a guess when highways such as the old turnpike, which runs from Route 20 to Quaker Street, would be cleared. (The clearing process may be in progress now). MAN WITH SHOVEL — On snow-blown Route 20 near Dunnsville, Monday, a farmer takes out his shovel to assist motorists stranded along the highway. The mile-long bottleneck halted about 50 cars nearly five hours Monday until heavy snow removal equipment arrived.

Provide Receptacles For Mail, Says P.M. A request was received by the En- terprise yesterday from Merlin W. Os- terhout, postmaster at Altamont, to publish the following notice: 1. All patrons on the rural routes, where their mail box is not accessible, should provide a temporary receptacle, in order that the carriers may deposit their mail. Postal regulations state that all obstructions, including snow, must be removed sufficiently to pro- vide that the carrier may service the box without dismounting from his ve- hicle. This, under the present emer- gency, in many cases is impossible. The carriers are doing everything pos- sible to deliver the mail. To facili- tate handling of the mail and its de- livery, placing of this receptacle IN A PROMINENT PLACE will help the carrier to deliver to each patron- his mail as early as possible. . 2. The postmaster also stated that, if his patrons wish to clarify postal de- livery in any way, they may call his home — Altamont UN 1-8086. Guilderland Woman Leaves $100,000 To Area College Receipt of a $100,000 bequest from the ©state of a Guilderland woman has been announced by Union Col- lege. The 'gift is from the late Mrs. Mar- jorie Nott Morowetz, who died Jan. 3, 1957 in New York city, and will be added to Union's $21 million en- dowment. The income will toe used to maintain the campus and gardens, college officials said. Mrs. Morowetz was a great-grand- daughter of- one of America's re- nowned educators, Eliphalet Nott, former president of Union College. She was the widow of Victor Moro- wetz, prominent corporation attorney. Altamont Firemen On 24-Hr. Duty This Week During the present storm emergen- cy in Albany county, the Altamont firemen are manning a sub-base radio station. This communications center has been established at the Altamont fire station. The local center relays emergency messages .received from is- olated areas to the main station. Col. Jacobson, Civil Defense director for Albany county, is maintaining his head- quarters at the Albany County Garage on the Voorheesville-New Salem road. He is directing the relief. and emer- gency activity of Albany and Greene counties. The local station is being manned 24 hours a day. and is ah important cog in relaying and receiving urgent calls from people who have been isolated by the storm which has gripped the area (on top of two other storms). Fire Chief John Armstrong states: \This is an extreme situation, and the local station will continue to Operate around the clock until the emergency has passed.\ . Provision, has also been made by the Altamont Rescue Squad., to reach peo- ple in isolated areas who are in need of hospital care. Snow shoes, tobog- gans, ropes, shovels, etc., are in readi- ness in case the need arises. firfpl Ball Postponed •' • 4 ,;-.;' i 4 '\-'.

In making tlie announcement, Mr. Hiltz „expressed confidence that the Albany County Chapter campaign for funds and members would again be successfully reached. The willing- ness of several thousand people to assist in the campaign has resulted in a drive organization ready to call on every adult resident and worker in Albany county during the month of March.

(Story on Page 5) Caucus Names Burke Far Two-Year Term William V. Burke, member of the Altamont Board of Trustees, was re- nominated for a two-year term at the annual village caucus Tuesday night at the fire house. About 13 citizens attended the meeting, in spite of the stormy weather. Mr. Burke's nomination is for a full The blizzard of '58 can't compete with the blizzard of '88. That was the grandaddy of 'em all, the Albany Weather Bureau reports. Even though last week end's storm paralyzed highway traffic and sealed off secondary roads in the worst snow tieup in 43 years, it's just a mild version of the 1888 storm, which buried the Capital District in 46.7 inches of snow. About 18 inches of snow had fallen last week end, and was whipped into mountainous drifts by 40 mile-an- hour winds. By comparison, however, the 1888 •blizzard left only one alternative: To tunnel. Nevertheless the Weather Bureau said the most recent storm ranked among the \five worst in Al- bany area history.\ On Mar. 16-17, 1956, storm clouds dumped 15.9 inches of heavy, wet snow on the area, clogging highways and causing traffic tieups. Higher temperatures than those this week, however, helped melt the snowfall and aided snow-removal crews. Twenty-two years ago, Jan. 18-20, 1936, a severe storm deluged the area with 17.9 inches of snow over a three- day period, causing another winter emergency. December 13-14 in 1915 were the dates of another winter pasting. Records show that 24.7 inches of snow fell in the worst storm since the blizzard of '88. -\-41 Blizzard Blitz Briefs Where did it all come from? (the snow, we mean). According to the Albany Weather Bureau, a meeting last Friday down in the Gulf of Mex- ico was the reason why you had to dig your way out of your home and stagger through snowdrifts to work this week (if you went to work). For it was down Mexico way that the trou- ble all began, when a low pressure disturbance met a belt of cold air and they got together (in not a very ; friend- two-year term, after serving one year view of the continued increase of i ° n the . b ° a 5 d }° fai A out ^ unexpired h y fashion) to trundle north and dump services performed by the well or- if, 1 ™ ° r , tn ? lat e Augustus Elgie Jr. that load of snow on your doorsteu ganized and competently administer-1 ^ r :„ Burkes n °mmaUon was unam- (and ours), ed group of devoted volunteers and ing representaH^lgneighboring fire ^ ^n but able dedicated profes- A^«nt V^ltlt^ « IA sional wooers of the Albany County Assistan.

Education Commissioner James E. Allen recommended last month that school superintendents take steps to see that children receive a full school .year of education. He cited the Asian flu epidemic, the New York city subway strike and weather conditions among factors that had led to cancelled classes. The normal school year is 180 days. The superintendent suggested use of vacation itme and longer school days to make up for the time lost. Some schools will cut the Easter vacation shoi;t. ' N. Y. State Christian Youth Council To Meet In Utica The teenager's responsibility to his society, his church, and his home will be up for discussion by over 400 young people this week end (Feb. 21-22-23)' as the New York State Christian Youth Council meets v in Utica for its 35th an- nual conference. Sponsored by the New York State Council of Churches, the meeting will bring together a record number of youth leaders from all parts of the state to tackle problems that might well give pause to their elders. Among the questions the teenagers will be discussing are: \How can I change un 7 Christian habits such as in- tolerance?\ \What are my social and vocational goals?\ .\Does dating play too large a part in my life?\ \What am I getting out of my church\ and \Do I have a faith to live by?\ Mr. mous.

Include S. S, Number In Tax Return, Says O'Hara Taxpayers are reminded by Dis- trict Director James A.

Please thank Mr. Osterhout and Mr. Whipple, in behalf of my neighbors and myself.\ If you had any doubts, the week-end storm, which has continued with,more or less intensity all week—was a bliz- zard. That's official, the Albany Weather Bureau announced. What is a blizzard ? It's a storm with -a hea- vy fall of powdery, not wet, show, high winds and temperatures of about five above zero. On Route 85 (Voorheesville to New Salem) the Albany county highway superintendent, Maurice Glockner, had to be rescued from a snowdrift Mon- day when high winds and poor visi- bility forced him off the road. The 18 below zero temperature reached at Albany Airport at 5 a. m. Tuesday was the coldest Feb. 18 on record. William H. Young, town of New Scotland road superintendent, said: \I'm scared out of my life, but we're doing the best we can.\ ,He said he had ordered a Sno-Go for $291300 from the manufacturer in Ohio. It was scheduled to arrive Thursday, he said. In the town of Knox, two rest homes, the Hilltop and the Nash Homes, were isolated by the snow. Jay Henion, town road superintendent, was attempting to get a snow blower and a bulldozer, because his three plows have proven inadequate. Snow banks are so high now (Tuesday) that the snow shoved aside merely falls back into the road behind the machines. Schoharie county remained in a state of emergency, although all main roads in the county were reported open Tues- day and highway workers took to town and county roads in an effort to open them. Ninety percent of the latter were reported closed. Forecasts seemed to bar any hope of early help for the Atlantic Seaboard, still trying to dig out from the week- end blizzard which struck from Missis- sippi to New England. / A giant helicopter from the Army and a five seated monoplane from the , Air National Guard started caityihg' ; out missions of mercy Wednesday over- stranded sections of Albany-, county i— while on the ground 15 to 30-rhile; an hour winds closed newly operied* 1 rpads • again.
