SOLAR ECLIPSE 10 CAUSE A DARK DAY September 21 Will Be Night in Some Sections of the World Chicago, Ill, Sept. 8.—The fact that you do not live on the east coast of Africa, Australla or on fslands in the Southern Pacific ocean relleves you of the unpleasantness of a dark day on September 21. On that date, according to Prof. Edwin B. Frost of the University of Chlcago and director of the Yerkes Observatory, a total solar eclipse will occur over that region, The moon, coming between the earth and the sun, will cast a shadow which will sweep over the southern #ea from a point of the eastefn coast of Africa near the equator, cross a few scattered islands and the contin- ent of Australia and then out to the @outhern Pacific ocean, he said. Shadow Trail. This trail of the shadow will be about 115 miles wide. The duration of totality at different points will vary from three to six minutes and Professor Frost declared this to be an unusually long eclipse. Expeditions from various astron- omical institutions will be established at favorable points to study the eclipse. John Evershed, director of the observatory at Kodaikanal, India, will make his observations from the Maldive islands. Astronomers from the Royal observatory at Greenwich, England, have established a station on Christmas island. A party from Batavia, Dutch Indies, also will be lo- cated at Christmas island and will be Joined by Dr. Freundlich from the Einstein laboratory at the Potsdam observatory. Prof. W. W. Campbell with a party from the Lick Observa- tory will be stationed at Wallal, Aus- tralia. Professor Chant of the Uni- wversity observatory at Toronto will be with this group Great Sight. “The total eclipse of the sun al- ways has been one of nature's most thrilling spectacles,” sald Professor Frost. “It gives a momentary glimpse of the mysterious veil surrounding. the sun, called the corona, which is never visible at any other time. Gi- gantic rosy eruptions of flowing gas also may be seen along the rim of the eclipsed sun.” On September 10, 1923, he said, a total solar eclipse will touch the coast of the United States at Santa Barbara and near San Diego, Cal. The islands off the Pacific coast, notably Santa Catalina, will be well situated for stations. The track of the shadow will sweep southeast across Mexico. Preparations for observing this eclipse already have been started by several American observatories. After the one of 1923, the next to- tal solar eclipse that can be observed under favorable conditions in United States will be on August 21, 2017.
