ECLIPSE OF SUN OCGURS ON AY Will Not Be Visible in Can- ada or United States, However Washington, D.C., May 7.--United States navy scientists have left noth- ing undone to obtain every possible bit of knowledge during the only to- tal eclipse of the sun this year. The sun will be entirely obscured: May 9, but the phenomenon will not be visible in the United States, Four scientists from the naval ob- servatory have set up their appara- tus in Iloilo, on the Visayan Islands, a part of the Philippines. Large scale photographs will be se- cured with a 65-foot camera and in- tensive study will be made of the sun's corona and shadow band phe- nomena, The men probably will have less than four minutes in which to make their observations and photographs and there is a 50-50 chance that clouds will obscure their vision. Photographs secured with the pow- erful long-focus camera will be com- pared with pictures taken with a similar instrument by Prof. J. A. Mil- ler of Swarthmore College, who will be located on the island of Sumatra. Such comparison will determine whether there are any movements or changes indicated in the form of the corona in the interval of time taken for the eclipse to pass between the two stations. Naked eye observations will be made of the form of the corona and shadow b#nds and a special attempt will be made to determine whether the bands 'persist during the period of totality. Shadow bands are narrow, dark, parallel bands seen to rush across the landscape just before or after to- 'tality in a solar eclipse. Whether they exist during the period of total- ity may be determined at this time. Times of contacts of the eclipse will be determined and compared with Professor Miller's observations to find the relative positions of the sun and moon at the time of the eclipse. Besides the naval expedition two other groups of -scientists, one from Hamburg, Germany, and one from Manila observatory, will be in the Visavang Islands. ' 600 Farms Are Now 'Back on The Market Bloomington, Ill, May 7.--Six hundred farms in Ohio and Indiana on which a life insurance company foreclosed mortgages are Doing brought back on the market throug "corporation farming." Hudson Burr, who directs opera- tion of the farms from an office in 'Bloomington, explains that the insur- bout ance company decided to improve ra- ther .than dump them on a "bearish" market and so discourage other farm- ers who are paying off mortgages that they might step out from under their obligations. Burr says that 300 of the farms are so run down in fertility and im- provements that tenants cannot be attracted on a "half-and-half" share basis, making it necessary to hire managers and run them as corpora- tions, The organization includes 300 farm managers, 300 tenants, about 75 field men and supervisors, and an in- vestment of $2,500,000. About $300, 000has been invested in equipment for 300 of the farms operated by em- ployees. The company owns every- thing on them and 'expects, eventu- ally, to put them back into private hands, GAME WARDEN APPOINTED According to the 1lits of game wardens of Ontario issued by the Toronto Anglers' Association, P.
