[Tutor] one more question on a word in a specific place in a line

Thanks you very much, gentlemen. This is the greatest bunch of folks for
someone who wants to learn Python.
I am making very good progress on my problem. So here's a continuation of
I am currently reading a text file that is essentially a weather report. It
looks as follows:
I am using the readlines() and the line.split commands to print the "first
word" in the second line, and the "first word" in the 4 line. My code works
well if the text always looks like the above example. Sometimes, however, a
different weather text may have some additional text that spills into the
next line. For example
If this happens, the "first" word in the 4 line clearly will not be the
same. My code will read and print 12-23-01 instead of KLGA.
How do I do it so that in both cases the print out will be KPVD KLGA , and
not KPVD 12-23-01
