  • Capstone Submitted to The
    NORTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY An Analysis of the Oak Lawn Tornado of 1967 A Capstone Submitted to the University Honors Program In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Baccalaureate Degree With Honors Department of Meteorology By Jacob Montesano Dekalb, Illinois June 6th, 2021 University Honors Program Capstone Faculty Approval Page Capstone Title: An Analysis of the Oak Lawn Tornado of 1967 Student Name: Jacob Montesano Faculty Supervisor: Victor Gensini Faculty Approval Signature: __________________________________ Department of Meteorology Date of Approval: February 4th, 2021 Date and Venue of Presentation: Recorded Video Abstract: The purpose of this project is to analyze and discuss the events of the Oak Lawn Tornado of 1967. First, I approached analyzing this event is by looking at stories and facts about what happened to see how devastating the event truly was. Second, I collected archived weather data of the event and analyzed how this event was so strong. The paper will discuss what happened and stories of the event and the PowerPoint will provide scientific background of the event. Both will show a descriptive analysis of that day and help the reader understand what was so significant about the event. On the afternoon of April 21st, 1967, a tornado outbreak ravaged the northern part of Illinois. Approximately 15-20 tornados struck the northern part of the state, and 52 existed throughout the entire system. Around 58 people were killed that day (57 in Oak Lawn and Belvidere alone) and nearly 40 million dollars in damage occurred (314.13 million adjusted for inflation). The worst hit area was the town of Oak Lawn, where an F4 tornado destroyed a large part of the town.

  • George Prince Kaumuali'i, the Forgotten Prince
    DOUGLAS WARNE George Prince Kaumuali'i, the Forgotten Prince CATHERINE STAUDER provides considerable historical data on George Prince Kaumuali'i, the first born son of King Kaumuali'i, the last king to rule over the islands of Kaua'i and Ni'ihau.1 She discussed his military record and reached the conclusion that the royal prince and his missionary benefactors were less than honest in reporting his exploits in the U.S. Navy during the war of 1812. However, additional material gleaned from military and secular records indicates George Prince Kaumuali'i may not have been such a lying rascal after all. The purpose of this article is to revisit the period in question, and consider some other documentation which has come to light that indicates that the Prince probably was indeed wounded in combat during the war of 1812, but the particular sea battle cited in the religious press is in error. A brief chronology of George's activities based upon Stauder's arti- cle follows: Jan. 1804 to July 1805: George left the island of Kaua'i at the age of four aboard the Brig Hazard, an American trading vessel, under care of Captain James Rowan. His original Hawaiian name was Hume- hume, but his father, King Kaumuali'i, suggested he be called George (after King George of England) when he went abroad. The lad was sent off alone by his father to obtain an education in America. The ship sailed first to the Northwest Coast of America, then back across the Pacific to China, the Indian Ocean, around Africa arriving in Providence, Rhode Island eighteen months after leaving Kaua'i.

  • GUNSMOKE TV CAST and DETAILS Premiered
    GUNSMOKE TV CAST AND DETAILS Premiered: September 10, 1955, on CBS Rating: TV-PG Premise: This landmark adult Western centered on Marshal Matt Dillon of Dodge City. John Wayne turned down the lead, suggesting James Arness (who remained for its entire run). Originating on radio (with William Conrad as Dillon), it moved to TV in September 1955. Its popularity spawned a number of copycats, but none would enjoy the longevity (and few the consistent quality) of this classic. Airing for 20 years, it's TV's longest running prime-time drama (a record that `Law & Order' is currently chasing). Gunsmoke Cast • James Arness : Marshal Matt Dillon • Milburn Stone : Dr. Galen `Doc' Adams • Amanda Blake : Kitty Russell • Dennis Weaver : Chester Goode • Ken Curtis : Festus Haggen • Burt Reynolds : Quint Asper • James Nusser : Louie Pheeters • Charles Seel : Barney Danches • Howard Culver : Howie Culver • Tom Brown : Ed O'Connor • John Harper : Percy Crump • Dabbs Greer : Mr. Jonus • George Selk : Moss Grimmick • Hank Patterson : Hank Miller • Glenn Strange : Sam • Sarah Selby : Ma Smalley • Ted Jordan : Nathan Burke • Roger Ewing : Clayton Thaddeus `Thad' Greenwood • Roy Roberts : Mr. Bodkin • Woody Chamblis : Mr. Lathrop • Buck Taylor : Newly O'Brien • Charles Wagenheim : Halligan • Pat Hingle : Dr. John Chapman • Fran Ryan : Miss Hannah Gunsmoke Credits • Sam Peckinpah : Screenwriter Gunsmoke Directors • Harry Horner : Director Gunsmoke Guest Cast • Aaron Saxon : Basset • Aaron Spelling : Weed Pindle • Abraham Sofaer : Harvey Easter • Adam West : Hall
