UNUSUAL RECORD *-•> OF STATE TORNADO CAPTURED BY FILM " One of the most unusual photographic records ever made of a tornado has been captured; on film by the Illinois State Water Survey which successfully tracked a twister with a radar-movie camera for a distance of- fid miles: Nearly 1,100 pictures of tha storm were taken by the radarcamera located at the Survey's meteorological laboratory at tha University of Illinois airport, four miles south of Champaign- Urbana, "These are the first radarmovies of a tornado known ta us," said Dr. A. M. Buswell, ;hief of .the water survey which^ functions under the state Department of Registration and Education. On April fr, the survey was operating its radar equipment at the meteorological laboratory to measure the rain falling from thunderstorms passing north of the station. At 4:15 p.m. rad$u* technicians noticed unusual radar scope echoes. At 5:06 . p.m. one of thea echoes in a position about 1- miles north of the station de •doped a tail wigch moved east ward at approximately 48 mile per hour. The tail curled into t cyclonic whirlpool that encom passed an erea about a mile an< a half in diameter. The rada technicians were ' able to traci this unusual pattern across th< state line into Indiana. All o* these Observations were auto matically photographed. ^ The significance of the obser vations became apparent whei subsequent news bulletins re vealed that a destructive tornadr had traversed the exact path shown" by the unusual formatior on the radar screen. A tornado on that day hit first in the vicinity of Lincoln, Logar county, and moved eastward on a course that took it north of Champaign and Danville where it continued on into Indiana. The radar photographs are being studied by Survey meteorologists to determine the structure; and mechanics of the tornado. r TRAFFIC FATALITIES April traffic accidents on" IHt-n nois highways took the lives of 180 persons, the • highest number of such deaths during any April of the past sixteen years.
