Boy who used Weather Bureau dial shocks family
Washington tale recalls six year old George Basle who dialed the Weather Bureau 42 times to hear forecasts, mistook New York area code for long distance, and prompted a large toll bill before the charges were canceled. In California, a rancher’s wife survived 32 hours trapped in a caved well, praised as remarkable by her rescuer after she held on with a rope. A Seattle lawyer, Irving Clark Jr., recalls swallowing 34 goldfish in 1939 and notes the taste remains awful.
