Hurricane
Names Are
Chosen For ’59
Why have hurricanes been
tagged with girls’ names? May-
be it’s becau’e they are windy
and unpredictable.
Anyway, the 1959 list of
hurricane names has been re-
leased by th * weather bureau
and it includes names well-
known and not so well-known.
The list, pretty vital to peo-
ple living in this area, follows:
Arlene. Benia, Cindy. Debra,
Edith, Flora. Gracie. Hannah,
Irene, Judith. Kristy. Lois, Mar-
shal. Nellie. Orpha. Penny,
Quella, Rach< 1, Sophie, Tanya,
Udele, Vicky. Wilma, Xcel,
Yasmine, Zasu.
They're al’ pretty names—
but here’s hoping they are
used only to describe real girls
during 1959.
