Y “ie expect to sail from Seattle in June heading down the coast The chart above shows how a congested region ¢f the metec shooting stars will result. By ROBERT H. BAKER (Professor of Astronomy, Univer- sity of Illinois) URBANA, IIl, Nov. 1.—November 14-is a red letter day on the as- trenomical calendar. On this date the earth passes near or across nieteors. If the swarm is at the crossinz lide with multitudes of these me- Yeors. There are no traffic regu- lations at celestial intersections. The consequence of such collisions would be a fine display of shoot- ing stars. Moderate Shower Last Ycar It must be understood that as- tronomers are not definitely pre- dicting a spectacular meteoric shower on this date. No oné can say in advance whether the eartht shall encounter a congested region of the swarm or merely some of the stragglers. That remains to e seen. The Leonid swarm travels around the sun once in 33 years in an elongated orbit. years the earth passes near tirough this rather “long “sWarth for two or three years in sucees- sion. Last year, in the middle cf November, the earth collided with enough of it to produce a moder- ate shower of meteors. Leonid showers have occurred over more than a thousand years. A record of one of the early dis- plays reports that “the stars fell like rain.” The meteoric showers in November, 1833 and 1866, wers 5o brilliant that superstitious per- sons feared the world was about to end. Not only a few meteors fell at the next encounter, in 1899 and 1900. Most Meteors Small The Leonids are named be- 'eduse they seem to spread in all directions from a region in the constellation Leo.
