STRANDED IN RESTAURANT
NEW YORK, March 21. Nearly 700 persons stranded in a restaurant on a main road in Pennsylvania are getting organised today for what they fear could be a lengthy stay in their crowded temporary home. People gathered at the restaurant when (heir cars became stranded in the storm. - Helicopters ferried many travellers from the tops of their snowed-in cars and buses. One man died in the restaurant after making his way there from his car through snow drifts. Thirty-six inches of snow fell in one part of Pennsylvania. People were everywhere. They were sleeping on floors, sitting huddled against walls, standing or leaning. There were at least
a half dozen babies under a year old in the group.
