Foresees Flows Levels Up; See End Of Drought MASSENA Better water Hows through the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence system is foreseen by the New York State Power-Authority, in the annual report issued Sunday. During the past few years flows from the Great Lakes have been abnormally low, the report points out, resulting from the severe drought in the area, first- evidenced during the winter of 1961-62. It now appears this period of drought is drawing to a close. Increasing precipitation the 300,000 square mile watershed of the Great Lakes resulted in.

a near normal average for the year The Lake Ontario Basin ceived three inches more rainfall than the 19004964 average. At the close of 1965, the levels of the Great Lakes were well above the levels recorded a year earlier. Crown Honors Cleland. Clare C. Cleland, shown with Converting Supt.

The increased -precipitation over the basin and the higher lake levels which resulted provide encouraging prospects for improved water flows and power production at Niagara and St. Lawrence in the year ahead. In 1965, the authority's Niagara and.

St. Lawrence plants generated 16.9 billion killowatt- hours of energy compared with a normal -generation of 19.5 bil- Jion kwh. While the 1965 generation represented a decrease of 13.3 per cent from normal, it showed an increase of approximately 8.3 per cent from the 1964 generation of 15.6 billion kwh. CAL NEWi George K.

On Friday evening. March 4, under the lights at Maple Ridge ski slope, the Polar Bear Ski Club will stage the first nighttime-uphill-snowmobile- In view of -spectators in the area of the Ice Palace, racers will climb between slalom flags, round the marker at the top of the ridge, and return to the timers' gate.

Because of the time limitation of an evening race, entries will be limited to 40 machines. The event is unclassified open to jail machines and both men and I women drivers. No entry fee will be charged. Silver trophies will be awarded for the first three places. The conventional two-event classified snowmobile a and powder-puff meet, which proved popular at last year's Winter Carnival, will be held again on March 6.

A purse of $450 will be divided among the top three winners in speed and cross-country contests and the all-around champion. Winners in the ladies' race will receive trophies and prize money in proportion to the number of entries. Entries may be picked up or requested by mail or phone from the Ski Information Cen ter, Old Forge. After 5 p.m. telephoned requests may be left on the electronic answering machine.

Firemen from the towns of Plessis, Alexandria Bay, Clayton, Redwood and LaFargeville fought the fire unsuccessufHy in sub-zero weather.

A short in wiring to the barn caused the death of four cows by electrocution. Bauter told sheriff's deputies his children, who had been sent upstairs for a nap, said they heard a crackling noise. When he investigated in the attic of the house, he found the chimney area in flames. He summoned the fire department, took hisj children to safety and began trying to save as much furniture as possible.

Fifteen additional students are involved in tracking down references and in preparing and assembling the equipment. Charles A.

Hewett, assistant professor of physics and adviser to the American Jnsitute of Physics' Studen6 Section at Clark son, will supervise the research. To the best of the research team's knowledge, Hewett said, this method of three-dimension- al photography has never before been adapted to motion pictures. Wavefront reconstruction was discovered in 1947 by Dennis Gabor of the Imperial College or Science and Technology, London. The team expects no difficulty in assembling a crystal laser for a Uight source this will be a first, since previous efforts in wavefront reconstruction have used a gas laser or in developing a technique for taking motion pictures. However, Hewett said difficulties are expected in applying the technique under laboratory conditions.
