University of Oregon. Eugene, Jan.
29, For the first time in many years
a solar eclipse visible in the north
' west will occur on February 3, 1916.
The following informal ion regarding
it h as been prepared by Edward H.
McAlister, professor of mechanics
and astronomy in the University of
Oregon.
, The . eclipse will be total within a
narrow belt, varying from SO to SO
miles in width, lying mainly in the
Pacific and Atlantic oceans. This belt
called the "path of total eclipse," be
gins in the Pacific ocean some 45 de
grees of longitude west of the Isth
mus of Panama, traverses the Pacific
to the west coast of Colombia, crosses

The times of the different phases of
the eclipse have been computed for
two places, the University at Eugene
and Baker. The corresponding times
at other points within the state wi'.l
differ from these in general by less
than five minutes. These two points
have been selected as being nearly on
an east and west line through the cen
ter of the state , The times are re
duced to Pacific Standard time.

Oregon is situated far from the

in Oregon the sun will rise partially

then for all points on that line the

greatest obscuration, will occur pre
cisely at sunrise; for all points in the
state east of that line, the middle cf

The greatest degree of ohwuraion
risible in different parts of ihe state
varies in a complicated manner, but
in a general way it may be said that in
the extreme northwestern part of the
state only about one-tenth of the
sun's diameter will appear ohscured.
while in the extreme southeastern
nart nearly one-farth of the sun's
diameter will appear ohscured. whie
at other r-oints within the slate the
amount of obscuration will fall with
in these limits.
