That remark seemed summarize the feelings of other onlookers. The sudden tornado that whipped across the business district of the river city gave little warning. Only a thundering "Shhhhh" that caused residents to look for a train that wasn't there. And coming across the waters of the Yazoo Canal only a strange, reddish glow showed the presence of the turbulent winds. In a tour through the wreckage Sunday, I saw destruction that almost defies For an area over 300 and a 12 descriptionde block long, the tornado cut its path, doing most of its damage in downtown Vicksburg.

One block east of Washington the city's main business street, I watched workmen dig in illfated Saenger Theater, center of "Whooee, there just ain't no way to protect yourself against something like that," one amazed work- much of the early rescue operations. The sturdy front facing of the buildling stood perfectly erect with only its glass blown out. But sloping towards the center and rear, the walls had tumbled, causing the entire ceiling With military at every cordropardi ner in the devastated area stopping curiosity seekers, rescue operations were proceeding rapidly. Naval Reservists, National Guardsmen, and American Legion members with their service caps were among the many doing their best to keep things running smoothly. Hardware Store Walking westward on South I reached Washington, and saw what believe is the most complete job of destruction in the area.

The Mississippi Hardware Co. was now just a pile of bricks. Ten people escaped with their lives inside the crumbled structure by huddling beneath concrete basement steps. Continuing on to the foot of the historic hill, one could get the best view of the hardest hit area. Looking upward, the hillside was flattened.

What once had been Mulberry with its abundance of Negro frame houses, was no more. Two blocks away the path the "killer" had taken could be seen running through the downtown area. At the foot of the hill looking south down the length of the canal, warehouses were ruined. The P. Williams Co.

buildings were hardhit. They were standing erect, but the side walls were knocked out in spots, leaving the contents of the buildings open to the elements. The heavy rains that had followed the tornado had soaked the bags of feed and other items in most of the buildings. The 1947 Coast hurricane was terrible, but in its intensity, it was no worse than this. I saw the Coast's "big blow" and the only difference was that it was more widely spread.

Return To Normal Amidst the wreckage, Vicksburg citizens were doing their best to return to normal. The older Negroes about in the cleared areas best "Sunday go-towalking, meeting clothes." Cheerful greetings came from most of them. I asked one middle-aged Negro, James Cain. where he had been when the struck. "In that cafe." he replied as he rubble.

"I heard a 'shushing' racket pointed to a pile of, unrecognizable and thought A train was coming. Across the water I saw a reddish glow." "What did you do?" "I was hid pretty under lucky." the counter. Guess, "Do you run the cafe?" "Naw suh." he replied. "I Hattiesburg High Students Are Tops At Youth Congress MARVIN R. GREEN SR.
