Twin fled Police who assisted in rescue operations irt last- week's tornado found yesterday that one of their biggest problems now is preventing sightseers and potential thieves from entering the devastated area.

St. Louis County Police Maj. Edwin Wagner said that county and municipal police have kept virtually all damaged areas sealed off since the tornado struck Tuesday night. No one without proof that he works or lives in the stricken area is being permitted access. Warming temperatures yesterday brought an increasing number of ightseers to the area, Wagner said, along with some of what he termed "souvenir hunters." "The roads are still flooded with sightseers riding around, wanting to take a look at the damage," he said.

"But we are preventing all of them from going in and disrupting the people who are still trying to clean tip the damage to their homes and save what they can."
