CROOKSVILEE, 0., June 18- (AP)-A sudden flood rolled down a narrow Southeastern Ohio val- ley Friday night. leaving in its wake one dead and damage only partly estimated at more than 51.500.000.

Poticry damage is estimated at 51,000,000. The Ohio Power Com- Deny set damage to its sub- station in Cruoksvllie at 5250.000. The Mayor of Roseville said his Citizens face loss of 3250.000.

These estimates did not take in- to account the many inundated homes and business places in other communities and on farms. Authorities said no complete av.- curatc estimate of property dam- age is nvliiiahie.

"it was the worst thing I've ever seen around here." said Mrs. William Dalrymple of Rose Farm. a village of 200.
