The radio discovery throws new light on. the invisible layer of elec tritiecU - air-M.he Kennelty-HeavlBlde layer which reflects radio waves back to earth. As the sun passed completely irom signt, raaio recep-. tlon- on special setups changed abruptly to sunset conditions. Then tor tne minute ana a nan while the sun was completely dark- ened, the test radio waves behaved almost precisely as If It were night, j Their action: showed that in the darkened sky the waves were ascend ing much higher before being reflect ed bacK to eartn. xt was announced that this showed the invisible layer had abruptly retreated much higher under cover of darkness. When the sun reappeared, the radio reception changed back to daytime conditions, as It does at sunrise. The laver aDoarently had been forced down closer to earth. BooMirojd Lucky The "miracle" of all observations was reported by Prof. S. L. Boothroyd, director of the Cornell university ex pedition, stationed at Newport, Vt.

Williams, of Cornell, forth with made the first test of a new orocess he developed recently whon O. B. Sabine, of Cornell. He ovapW oratea cnromium w pruuuwi a ojw clal mirror for observing spectroscop lcally the invisible ultra-violet light from the corona.

H., so they settled down at Alfred, Mo. There the seeing was perfect, while Bartlett was In the middle of the cloudy belt where numerous expeditions had their hopes wrecked. "IMiddles" In Air Evidently there are "puddles" In the air. Some astronomers reported the "shadow bands" were entlroly missing while others sighted them clearly. These bands bio shadows rippling over earth during a total eclipse, ascribed to action of the at mosphere on light similar to that of water when shadows can bo seen flitting across a sandy bottom. At Portland, Me., John O. Lunt, of the weather bureau, said he not only saw but measured the bands. They were wavy lines, one-quarter to ono half Inch wide. He caught them on a sheet. "Celestial Express" Late! Two eminent astronomers charged that the "celestial express," the moon's shadow, was late. Two or three seconds behind schedule, said Dr. Frederick Sloe urn, of Wesieyan university, observing at Center Con way, N. H. Ten seconds late said Dr. Phillip Pox, director of the Alder planetar ium. Chicago, who observed at Island Pond, Vt.
