Earth Tremors | Rattle London | LONDON, Ont. (CP)--A series of severe earth tremors, accom- panied by explosion-like reports, shook sections . of Londez--and Norfolk County Monday. The Norfolk '"'quake," was the latest of a series which have struck intermittently since - last summer and have damaged a Walsingham Township farm house to the extent it is "'falling apart," and brought the family of four to the verge of abandon- ing their home. Professor James T. Wilson, in charge of the seismograph at the University of -Michigan, Ann Ar- bor, said the tremors were prob- ably due to 'local settling," which, he added, "usually does not produce tremors over any long distance." In' Lontion, the tremors and ac- companying "explosion" rocked cars and shook the earth near Woodland Cemetery in the west; ern part of the city.
