Spring will reign over the
weekend, says the weather
man, with temperatures aver
aging above the normal
range of 49 to 30 degrees.
Cooler temperatures are ex
pected in the early part of
the week.
Also in the early part of
the week rain will reign. A
possible J 2 -inch, or more, is
looked for accompanying the
cooler temperatures about
Monday or Tuesday.
Successful people are those
who either had or took a
chance.
