Special List
January 9, 1957 V.C. Campus.
For the past three days the weather
has been freezing each night
and morning, and the ice on
some pools (poured buckets) water)
nearly or barely lasted all day.
Two days ago the temperature was
said to have dropped to the lowest
in 65 years for San Francisco &
Oakland (probably also Berkeley).
Today it is a little warmer but
the sky is completely overcast and there
is a wind? (probably 10 to 20 mi.
velocity)

5. Song Sparrow
