Definition of 'Hurricane'
According to the Navy’s “Hur
ricane Hunters,” hurricanes are
tropical cyclones occurring in the
Atlantic, Caribbean and Gulf of
Mexico. By common agreement,
they are called “tropical storms”
until the maximum wind speed
exceeds 75 miles per hour, after
which they are called hurricanes.

Bay Area Closes
Beaches In Fear
Of Killer Sharks
SAN FRANCISCO, UP) — This
city closed its beaches to swim
mers Friday in fear of sharks
although scientists expressed be
lief a fatal attack such as that
Thursday on a college student
probably wouldn’t happen again
in 100 years.
Eighteen-year-old Albert Keg
ler died Thursday night of mas
sive wounds after a huge white
killer shark attacked him 50
yards off shore. His companion,
Shirley O’Neill, 18, swam to his
rescue and towed him to the
beach.
Swimming at most beaches
here long has been prohibited,
chiefly because of the strong un
dertows.
W. I. Follett, curator of ichthy
ology at the California Academy
of Sciences, said man-eating
sharks are not uncommon along
the West Coast. But he said they
seldom appear so .close to shore.
Kegler was the third swimmer
attacked by white sharks in re
cent years. Barry Wilson, 17, was
killed December 7, 1952, and
James Jacobs, 19, was bitten on
the feet February 6, 1955. Both
were swimming in Monterey Bay
— warmer water about 100 miles
south of San Francisco.
Miss O’Neill, who is being recom
mended by Mayor George Chris
| topher for the Carnegie Medal
for heroism, bent over Kegler’s
mangled body on the beach Thurs
day and prayed aloud with him
until he was unconscious.
The girl is a Catholic. Young
Kegler was non-Catholic, but had
not joined a particular demoni
nation.
Nose For Noises ...
AUSTIN, Tex., UP) — The Air
Force is studying how much
noise a man can stand.
Maj. Ralph F. Thompson of
Wright-Patterson Air Force Base,
Ohio, told an occupational health
conference here that “Air Force
engineers have studied noises in
chapels, hospitals and offices, and
they also are studying the effects
of air base noise on adjacent com
munities.”
A chairman is a man who
spends twenty minutes introduc
ing a man “who needs no intro
duction.”
