Tilt, and a Big One-- Sidewalk superintendents had a field day in Milwaukee when this duplex house slipped off a trailer when the truck driver swerved to avoid tree branches. Traffic on a main cross-town route was tied up several hours while workmen jacked the house up and put it back on the trailer. It was being moved to make room for a playground.
