ANDREWS 10S1 West 6th, Eugene With all facilities In tin-ton or. der, the Children's Hospital School, organized here in October, was ready Sunday to give Eugene and Lane County citizens their first official look into its work and progress. Open house will be held from 3 to 5 p.m. at the school Dunning, liHB Aides St. Many of the 16 children now en rolled have made remarkable progress in the three months the school has been operatine. Miss i Blanche Markham, supervisor, said Saturday. The children range in age from 2 to 14 years. Community support of the ero ject has been far greater than any- tnmg expected, Miss Markham said. Gifts of equipment and cash Medical Assn. have been sent to the school from a large number of Lane County sources. Cash gifts alone total about $7000, Miss Markham said. In addition, many service clubs and women's organizations have helped by providing "volunteer workers. Among these have been the Welfare League, whose mem bers wrk three hours each morn ing, and the University of Oregon YWCA whose members spend two hours each afternoon at the school. All of the children enrolled would be denied the opportunity to get an education if it were not for the school.

I JOE RICHARDS MEN'S STORE to Willamette Phone 422 I Realty Board PreparezPlans, Schedules Waldorf as Speaker as an attempt at the Impossible. Quite often 100 or more letters will soon be received from widely separated localities. These "first letters rarely give much usable information, but- when question naires are sent to the writers, a great many of their "second let ters give estimated sometimes measured angles of direction and altitude which enable the tracer to calculate many things about the fireball. Let us illustrate with, the Yak ima meteor of 8:43 p.m., April 20, 1933, seen from most of Oregon and Washington. A Portland ob server first saw it 22 degrees east of south at an altitude of 38 de grees, and last saw it due north east 3'4 degrees high. This told only that it was traveling north erly over a line somewhat east of Portland, but from this alone its flight path could not be de termlned. From Sedro Woolley, Wash., it exploded and disap peared in the southeast; from Seattle, 60 degrees east of south (at 5 degrees above the horizon): from Pasco, Wash., 55 degrees west of north (at 7Mi degrees) from Monitor, Wash., due south (at 12 degrees); and from Cove, Oregon, due northwest. Map Work Many other places furnished valuable angular, estimates and over locality the big meteor "blinked out." If on a map lines are drawn from these various places in the directions indicated, they will very nearly meet at a, locality about 35 miles 10 degrees east of north from Yakima, the measured di rection given by a Yakima engi neer for the disappearance. The locality over which the meteor flashed into luminosity was not so easily determined be cause, since all observers did not catch sight of it at the same In stant, the "appearance lines of sight do not come so nearly meet ing as the "disappearance" lines. But .lines of sight for direction "first seen" as furnished from Oregon observers at Portland, Dufur, Eugene, North Bend, Glen dale and Klamath Falls (the at torney reporting here said it started "right at the North Star") converge quite well toward the Three Sisters area In the Cascades. A line drawn from the Three Sisters to the disappearance local ity north of Yakima gives the "ground path" of the fireball. With this determined, the heights at the beginning and ending of the luminous flight are calculated by trigonometry from the angles of elevation (with slight correct ions for the earth's.curvature) and the ground distances to thesa points. This calculation shows that the Yakima meteor became visible at about 85 miles above the Three Sisters, went downward at the gentle slope of 18 degrees, and, after traveling over 220 miles of "ground path" In six seconds, disappeared north of Yakima' at a height of about 10 miles. Any unburned fragments likely went on 20 or 30 miles farther. Charles Warner, not Mark Twain, first made the statement) "Everybody talks about the weather, but nobody does anythin g about it." Lynn O. Walddrf, head football coach at the University of Cali fornia, will be guest speaker at the Eugene First Citizen banquet Thursday under the sponsorship of the Eugene Realty Board.
