Far reaching cold snap grips nation with record lows
A massive polar surge plunged temperatures below zero in the Deep South and into Florida, crushing citrus groves and triggering dozens of storm deaths. From Tennessee to Georgia and on to the Northeast, readings tumbled, snow fell from Lake Erie to New York, and traffic accidents and shoveling exertion drove fatalities, with Indiana and Ohio reporting the highest tolls.

New England Bounces Back From Textile Slump
Boston AP reports that after 15 years of declining textile jobs totaling 168000, New England's economy grew six to seven percent last year. Federal Reserve economist Edwin Estle says the region shifted from textiles to growth industries like electronics, missiles, machines, tools, and instruments. Unemployment is down across major areas, though four cities still show improvement. Estle urges continued adaptation, education, and infrastructure to attract industry.
