Peter Lind Hayes CITY WITH THE SIIAKES Wcmt to Feel Earth Quake’-’ V:s:t Helena, Mont By RICHARD H. SCOTT Central Press Correspondent HELENA, Mont.—“Give me a bucking horse—anytime.” This generally assented prefer- ence to feeling an earthquake was expressed by a resident of Helena, the city where earthquakes occur on an average of about two every three days and at not too infre- quent intervals cause similar sen- sations to that of riding a bucking horse. The Montana capital city has had more than 2,800 earth move- ments since the weather bureau began keeping records in 1935, the year of the city’s greatest quakes. According to geologists, jolts occur when millions of tons of rock in a great batholith near quake instead of the usual hori- zontal quake caused by the earth sliding towards the sea. The amount of the settling of the batholith, a huge mass of igneous rock of unknown depth, determines the seriousness of the Jjoit. Grim Experience It is not a novel experience but a grim one for the older residents of Helena who can remember vividly feeling the earth “go crazy” beneath them and seeing buildings crumble and their neigh- bors Kkilled in that 1935 earth- quake which headlined nearly every newspaper in the nation. | All people like to think that the one thing that is solid and secure in this world is the ground be- neath them. Helenans cannot and they, naturally, do not like it. Last year, the city survived what became known as an “in- vasion” of the *“decade jitters.” This wave of fear came Zollowing the broadcast of a news story over the Helena radio station. The broadcast story pointed out that the city had suffered its two greatest jolts in 1925 and 1935. In 1925, a major earthquake rocked an area of 50,000 square miles. While the epicenter was neat Three Forks, Mont.,, some 66 miles from Helena, the Montana capital city was badly shaken and damaged by the jolt. The 1935 quake centered near Helena and was felt as far west as Spokane, north as Alberta, Canada, and south as Sheridan, Wyo. In Helena, it caused an estimated $4,000,000 in damage and four people were killed, many injured. Hundreds of the residents went Gl MAIN STREET, HELENA—This is the mess the big quake of 1935 made of the Montana city’s Main stieet. the § Helena, settle, causing a vertical § NOIODY.HOME, NOW!—-Quake shook off walls of this Helena home. out on the plains outside the city and camped, afraid to return to their damaged homes. They spent days there, fearing that an even worse jolt might come. The broadcast put emphasis on the fact that another 10 years had passed and that citizens were get- ting premonitions that another major quake was due to hit Helena. Broadcast Stirs Citizens Immediately following thg broadcast, the populace began to stir, giving a miniature perform- ance of the panic created by Or- son Welles' “Men from Mars” epic, One call after another flooded the radio station. Many had mis- construed the word premonition for prediction and wanted more details. Others said flatly that they were leaving their homes and moving elsewhere. Sale of real estate tumbled. Then, on June 1, 1945, a terrific quake jolted the city. Dishes rat- tled off the shelves; chairs leaned | conscious.
