Twenty 609-pound bembs dropped and exploded on the river of molten rock that for five weeks had been creeping menaeingly toward thé City of Hilc and ils water reservoirs. Every bomb made a direct hit. The sceme was' fwesome andd terrifying. At the head of the flow was a tongue of fire 200 feet wide. 1t rumbled, hissed and des voured bruch and trees in cingle spurts of flame. Ear-splitting explosions occurred- bemeath: the rived of fire. The drainage path to Hilo is the Wailuku River. The Hilo reservoirs are 11 milés up this river from the town. It could not be determined immediately if the bombing checked the direction of the lava flow.
