Rome'Again Plagued by Freezing Rain
Follows in Wake Of New Year's Three-Inch Snow • Freezing rain plagued Rome and
most of the state again today in the wake of a New Year's snowfall which added three more inches of snow in Rome and made driving hazardous.
State Police said all roads were open, but warned many were slippery. Particularly hazardous was the Rome-Verona Road.
The U. S. Weather Bureau forecast freezing rain tonight, saying the rain would change to snow tomorrow when it will become colder.
Last night the Rome area was lashed by snow blown by a 20-mile-anihour wind and some main roads drifted badly and* several vehicles were forced off the road, mainly because of slippery conditions.
New Year's Day was ushered in with temperatures that went as low as two above zero. A slight upward trend set in after the 8 and 9 a. m. minimum, the day's high of 14 above being reached at midnight. This noon the temperature was at the 26-degree mark.
Meanwhile, a recapitulation of Sentinel weather records disclosed December was 3.23 degrees warmer than the same month a year ago. Measurable snow totaled 16x/2 inches, nine above last December, and its precipitation of 4.02 inches was 2.87 inches more than the same month in 1945. The month's precipitation made the 1946 total 37.74 inches, 7.26 inches less than for 1945.
Heavy snow, freezing rain and sleet and a new cold wave extended over much of the country today.
The new frigid blasts moved into the Dakotas and Montana from the northwest sending temperatures to 20 below at Minot, N. D. The cold wave was expected to move eastward and forecasts were for temperatures of from 15 to 30 below in Minnesota tonight. .,,
Snow fell in many parts of Central West Texas and Oklahoma. Freezing rains chilled parts of Texas, Arkansas and spread through portions of Illinois, Indiana and lower Michigan. Power and communication lines in many cities were disrupted by the ice storms.
The sleet and freezing rains made travel on highways hazardous, but federal forecasters said the new cold wave, moving east ward from Montana and the Da kotas, would bring clear skies.
The Northern Rockies, the Pacific Coast and Florida were the only parts of the country which escaped the inclement weather.
All New England was under a blanket of snow from one inch along the southernmost coasts to 20 inches in far northern areas. Gales continued to buffet shipping off much of the New England Coast. Snow turned to sleet in Massachusetts, Connecticut and as far north as Southern New Hampshire making traffic hazardous. Presque Isle, Maine, had a temperature of 20 degress below zero.
Conover Promoted; Buckman New General Cable Manager
L. F. Buckman today assumed his position as plant manager of the General Cable Corporation's Rome .Division, succeeding William Conover.
The announcement from C. H. Kimmerle, vice-president in charge of manufacturing, said Conover is promoted to the position of associate director of personnel relations, with headquarters at the executive offices of the corporation in New York City.
Mr. Buckman, who comes here from the Perth Amboy plant, has had long years of
service with the corporation and has served as manager of a number of the corporation's plants. At the present time he is assistant director of manufacturing for the corporation.
Mr. Conover, who has had extensive experience in personnel relations, both in industry and in government service will perform general per-sonnell relations, including union negotiations, for all plants of the corporation.
Appointments of both Conover and Buckman were effective as of yesterday.

City Accident Record Unmarred
No Injuries On New Year's
There were no reported motor vehicle accident injuries in Rome over the New Year's holiday, a check of police reports showed today. The city's Christmas safety record was also unmarred by motor vehicle injuries.
Charles L. Rienzo, chairman of the Rome Traffic Commission, today thanked Mayor Schantz, who spoke in the interests of safety over two local radio stations on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve.
"The co-operation r e c e i v e d from these stations, the Rome Sentinel FM, (WRUN) and WK-AL, in giving time to the mayor's talks is greatly appreciated," Rienzo said. "We of the commission are also pleased with the publicity given by The Sentinel to our efforts to make drivers and pedestrians conscious of the need for exercising care in driving. We also thank Police Chief J. T. Owens and hi6 men for their co-operation.
"The commission also 'notes there were no serious fires over the holiday period. Appreciation is expressed to Chief William M. Campbell and his men for cooperating in furnishing information for publicity."
Mr. Rienzo asked Romans to make it a year without accidents instead of merely a week.
