Rains raise Baytown drainage and school absenteeism noted
Rainy conditions affect Baytown area with higher student absenteeism reported by acting superintendent W. D. Henson, while county agent Rayford Keyr says general rains aid agriculture by replenishing subsoil moisture. The late 1961 wet spell may push December rainfall above the 4.66 inch annual average, with recent totals about .05 inch plus a recent .10 inch. Elsewhere, steady rains drench Texas, up to 2 inches in spots, and fatal accidents occur on slick roads near Jacksonville and Gladewater. Temperatures stay above freezing except in the northern Panhandle. The commonest British name remains John since 1340, replacing William.
