Coptor View of Flood Aftermath--This is how the flooded area around Shively, near Pepperwood, looks to a helicopter pilot as he flies mercy missions over the distressed Eel River area. The river, background, is again within its bank but water remains on farmland in foreground. Army Col. Raymond Evers of Centralia, Ill., follows course with fingers on map as he navigates this particular flight.
