Chilly Valentine In Midwest Today By United Press International The weatherman gave the Midwest a chilly valentine today. From Grand Forks, N.D., wfyere it was 4 below, to Texas’ Rio Grande Valley, where another freeze threatened tender vegetable and citrus crops, the mercury stood low. The cold pierced far into Florida, dropping temperatures to an expected 28, but probably not enough to hurt the crops. A cloud cover moved in Wednesday and held temperatures above predicted levels in the Rio Grande Valley. Farmers burned smudge pots in an attempt to prevent any damage to the multi-million dollar garden crops. The current cold snap was the fifth sub-freezing mass of arctic air to strike the valley this year. Another hard frost could wreck next year's production, and hunt early sweet corn, field corn and watermelons. New cotton, tomato and cantaloupe crops have been planted, and two weeks of hot weather started the sap flowing in citrus trees. Some buds popped' out. - The below zero weather was restricted to a small area of the Red River Valley near the Canadian border. The temperature dropped to 6 below at Waterloo, lowa, and Madison, Wis., and 5 below at Rockford, 111. Rain and snow fell lightly here and there across the country. Muskegon, Mich., got one inch of snow. About two-thirds of an inch of rain fell in Southern Califomia. A child was killed in Pittsburgh when struck by a car on a city street while sledding. A tractor trailer apparently skidded on ice and struck a bus at Waterloo, N.Y. More than 30 of the 61 youngsters aboard the
