Denver Is Struck By Ten Inches Os Snow DENVER (UPD — Students eyed ski slopes on the western horizon today, dog tired repairmen were still busy restoring electric service and traffic signals, and homeowners assesed shrub, tree and roof damage which may exceed seven million dollars in Denver, which was caught pnprepared for 10.6 inches of heavy, wet snow. The storm began in the early hours Tuesday. By dawn, every tree and bush in the city drooped beneath the weight of clinging snow. Limbs eight inches thick broke from trees. They crashed onto roof and car tops, across sidewalks and streets. Power and telephone lines went down all • over town. Unpruned shrubbery was flattened. In the high Rockies, snowslides and snowfalls of as much as 15 inches closed roads. Fraser, Colo., had 24 inches of snow on the ground Tuesday night. Several mountain areas started up chair lifts and rope tows, as winter sportsmen showed up for their earliest crack at the ski slopes in recent metnory. Highway crews opened a mountain road west of Denver in time for Mrs. Thomas Holbrok, 28. to give birth to a son in a city hospital. Four runaway boys in their early teens, believed to have been living off food found in mountain cabins west of Denver for the past week, were still unlocated after the storm subsided.
