Surging waves inun. dated parts of the city while winds toppled rooms as the eye of the hurricane moved inland north of the city. WASHINGTON (P)-Ten deadly hurricane sisters, ranging from shy Alice to vicious Janet, have whirled up out of their tropical spawning grounds so far this year -and more may be yet to come. Officially, the season of the big winds lasts until Nov. 15. Experts disagree on whether it will ever be possible to throw a halter on these dangerous ladies from the tropics. But each time the grim red-and-black warning flags begin to fly, the U. S. Weather Bureau braces for an in- evitable barrage of complaints: "Why don't you do something to stop it?" Advocate Atomic Aid, Some scientists believe atomic intervention could turn the trick. Dr. Edward Teller, so - called "father" of the hydrogen bomb, said recently that atomic research developments may enable mankind to control weather and "prevent or alleviate" hurricanes within the next 10 years. How? By dropping A-bombs into the storms? Dr. Teller didn't say. But, Dr. Francis W. Reichelderfer, breezy, fast-talking chief of the U. S. Weather Bureau, has strong doubts about atomic bombs as hurricane killers. "It would take 1,000 atomic bomb explosions a minute to match the kinetic energy of a single moderate-size hurricane," Reichelderfer said in an interview. May Steer Storms Gordon Dunn, chief of the Weather Bureau's storm warning n center at Miami, Fla., says it may be possible to "steer" hurricanes away from a threatened city by treating the storm with artificial, rain-making methods-i.e., seed- ing the clouds with dry ice pellets or silver iodine. Reichelderfer was skeptical of this idea. "There are probably not enough planes in the world to drop enough ice to stop a hurricane," he said. Progress Being Made While mankind may never be able to control nature's outbursts, human ingenuity is making con- siderable progress in detecting, tracking and warning of impend- ing aanger from hurricanes, floods, tornadoes and other weather cap- rices. At the Weather Bureau's long- range forecasting center in near- by Suitland, Md., a giant new "electronic brain" analyzes com- plex data sent in four times daily from some 14,000 meteorological stations, ships and aircraft all over the world. But for all its astonishing effi- ciency, the "brain" still can't give a simple yes or no answer to the question: "Is it going to rain to- morrow?" That's where the hu- man element-based on judge- ment, experience an d p ur e "hunch"-beats the machine. Caught Off Guard Weather Bureau experts admit they were caught off guard by Diane, which swept inland with a king-size wet smack. Usually the great winds not only lose their Sunday punch but also dry out as they leave the sea. "Past records show that 99 times out of 100 we don't get floods like Diane produced," said Chief Gleit- er of the hurricane warning serv- ice.
