Bridge-Dwelling Family Escorted From Indiana to Kentucky
A Columbus Indiana sheriff sent Jerry Helms his wife and eight children south to Kentucky via the Madison to Trimble County bridge, ending their stay on a bridge they had occupied since last weekend. They had moved from Brush Creek after a Highway Department project began. Neighbors offered aid, which Helms declined. A second bridge had housed them previously. In Milwaukee, wood is now bent into shapes by soaking with anhydrous ammonia, avoiding steam or clamps.
