Predicting Unpredictable
Slate Weather Changes
Although Penn State is notorious
for having bad weather at ex
tremely unstrategic times, there is
still one , weathe7nan willing to
lace the groans .occa‘ioned by his
predictions. He' is Dr. Hans H.
Neuberger, in charge of the me
teorology laboratory of the. Col
lege.
If events were scheduled with
the weather in mind, one would
think Penn .State's calendar should
be mostly blank. But all types of
people with all kinds of purposes
consult Dr. Neuberger, and life
goes on in spite of the local repu
tation for windy drizzles on every
"big weekend."
The scope of service of the
weather expert is broad. House
wives, farmers, service units, Air
Corps trainees interested in flight
prospects, hqstesses with lawn par

clear wedding day, and football
