THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE. SATURDAY, JANUARY 4, 1986 oe oe :: In the Day’s Photo News The bitter weather that has held most of the country in its grip for ncarly two weeks reached vut to sea on the seven-Jeague boots of a winter storm to file up mountainous seas and hamper trans - Atlantic shipping. Looking over the side of the S. 8S. New York, one of the huge waves that swept its decks is shown as @ white fury of swirling, storm driven water. The heavy seas delayed the ship's arrival at New York for a day and a half. With the temperature nine degrees below zero; a §50,000 fire swept through a half block of business buildings at Webster City, fa, The streams of water poured on the flames by ccld-stiffensd firemen, froze into a coating of ice over the ruins. (Associated Press Photo) i, Through a mammoth {ce sheet that locked Great South Bay, off Long Island, for the third tire in 20 years, these two tankers struggled toward New York, beset by one of the worst blizzards in its bistory. « Aiding each other, they plowed a narrow furrow through the fice, which attained a thickness of eight ioches.

There Are Some Real Prizes Still Left, Girls, and Here’s Your Chance For 15,000,000 Americans, 1936 is a year to walk softly. There are about that many males, single, 16 years old and up, say the |most recent statistics. And 1936 is Leap Year, so every one of the 15,000,000 is potentially fair ;game for matrimonial huntresses. Most of the 15,000,000 are pretty much run-of-the-mine prospects. But | there are a few who will have to watch their steps with particular care if they are to avoid the pitfall of matri- jmony. They are so obviously eligible. Hollywood, that magryingest’ of ail places, still offers a few steadfast bachelors for the fancy of the Leap} Year miss. Buddy Rogers, Jack Oakie, | Gene Raymond, and the inimitable Harpo Marx are all unmarried. { Eligibles in Film’: | Remember when Buddy Rogers was rumored engaged to Mary Pickford? }But nothing came of tt.
