The Dick Bonine family, which includes a new baby and three other small children, couldn’t keep warm enough at their home in the Pine Hills and decided to come to town. Even with their 4-wheel drive Scout, they were unable to get through snowdrifts on the road. Using a radio in their vehicle, they called for help and Bruce McLean came to help. He couldn’t get all the way but the family was able to cross the distance between their stranded vehicle and McLean’s.
Unbelievably nasty winter weather 50 years ago. The eastern and southern portions of the state ended up as disaster areas. It was the old days. Our Republican governor, Tim Babcock, could call up the Democratic president, Lyndon Johnson, and get help without any political name calling.
