There are some 57 regular weather bureau stations in South Carolina, Graham stated. He is substituted on weekends by Miss Mali Korgen, who lives near the station. Dr. Donald Bush man performs the duties occasion ally during Graham's absence. Both are also faculty members of the department of geography and geology. On the bulletin board outside Graham's office in LeConte, a graph is maintained, showing the daily comparisons of the maximum and minimum temperatures. Information furnished by the station is recorded daily at 5 p.m. and indicates maximum and min imum temperatures as well as rainfall. '~ At the end of each month, a cumulative report is sent to the Weather Records Processing Cen ter in Chattanooga, Tennessee. The center compiles the informa tion in monthly climatical data, which is published and disributed by the Government Printing Of fice. Each weather station re ceives this information. These pub lished reports are compiled in booklet form according to state. A wealth of information is available from the detail work that these people do, Graham said in evaluating the purpose of the weather stations over the country. In addition to making a report to the Weather Records Proces sing Center, a daily report of the local weather conditions is made to a local newspaper. When asked whether the work at the local airport bureau was duplicated by the University sta tion, he stated that it wasn't. He went on to explain that conditions vary at the two places, regardless of the fact that they are not too far from each other.
