Clarendon Texas residents awoke to a dramatic scene as 81 unexpected guests sheltered from a blizzard at the Andy Brown family seven room farmhouse seventeen miles north of town on Highway 10. The visitors included 43 Greyhound bus passengers bound for California from Oklahoma, 37 motorists and 11 truck drivers.
