Did Mr. G. Hog See His Shadow Friday?

The question of greatest concern to many today is whether or not tlje ground hog saw his shadow Friday. Tradition says that on every February 2nd this greatest weather forecaster jnakes his appearance. There is likely to be a controversy concerning whether or not he saw his shadow when he emerged from his long hibernation. If he did he was foolish with the thermometer registering as far >below as it did. But whether dr not he saw his shadow, we are likejy tt> have six more weeks of weather that will border on winter anyway.
