I recently renewed my subscription to Newspapers.com for another six months, and need to look up more articles on the Doomsday Prophetess of 1964-1965, who predicted The End of The World on March 15 or March 16 of 1965(for those who didn't follow her group with plans to survive The End in a coal mine), but Life and Above All Else, Money Matters get in the way of doing things I don't get paid for, but maybe I'll find some time to further study this story.
Was her surname, Coomer? The thing that interested me about her, was, that surviving whatever disaster she thought would briing about the End of the World, by staying underground in a coal mine, would seem like she was expecting nuclear warfare, although in the reports I have read so far, she was not exactly sure what kind of disaster was going to bring about The End, and did not specifically state it would be brought about by nuclear warfare.
I also need to do a newspaper search on whether the report on her and her followers on CBS News with Walter Kronkite, was covered in the newspapers. I just wonder if any filmed interviews with this woman, shown on TV or elsewhere, might survive today?
I have, on one other message board, read a post from a member who did remember the CBS News report, by a man who at the time was still a youngster, and when a storm came up during the night Ms. Coomer had predicted for The End, he did wonder if she could have been correct, although the storm was not all that bad, and he had hopes that possibly he could get out of going to school because of the storm.
