The aging pontiff’s condition was complicated by arteriosclerosis ‘and high blood pressure and a particwar- ly strict regimen during the spiritual exercises of the past week.

D. SMIMFHL, NER Body of Grand Forks Plumber Found in Open Ditch; 32 Below at Minot ee . One death was caused by the cold wave which swept North Dakota over the week-end. The victim was Ed. Olson, Grand Forks plumber, whose frozen body was found in an open ditch in that city Monday. Coroner G. L. Anderson said Olson apparently froze to death after falling into the ditch Sunday night. The state was held in the icy grip of sub-zero temperatures again Monday as winter drove a spearhead of cold into the middle United States. Temperatures which dropped to be- low zero at all state points over the week-end set new low records for the season Sunday. Minot was the cold- est point with a minimum of 25 de- grees below zero while Jamestown and Grand Forks had —24 and —23, respectively. At Bismarck the mercury ranged down to —11 overnight but warmed up considerably Monday and had climbed to one above at noon. Snow Falls Here A light snow was falling through- out most sections of the state Mon- day, with Dickinson reporting a strong southeast wind, but roads were open and in fair condition, the state highway department announced. Meanwhile summerlike rains fell in the eastern section of the United States and the south counted exten- sive damage from high winds. Tor- nadic winds struck parts of Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas injuring 20 and flattening half & dozen homes.
