The spectacular event can be extremely hazardous, how ever, if not prepared for properly. Blindness can result by looking directly at the sun and one of the few safe ways to observe the eclipse is by utilizing a view btx that projects the sun's image through a pinhole onto a screen. The device looks like a planter box and can be constructed in a matter of minutes from ordinary mater ials that are commonly found around the house or available at a stationary shop. What is needed includes only five items: a sheet of matt board, or a 32 by 40 inch piece of cardboard that is dark on one side and white on the other; masking tape; a three inch square piece of alumi num foil; a pocket or utility knife; and a round, pointed object, such as a thick needle or nail that is between one-sixteenth and one-eighth inch in diameter. To begin construction: Cut off a 12-inch wide strip from the matt board along the long side. This will yield two pieces, one that is 20 by 40 inches and the other that is 12 by 40 inches.

From the smaller strip cut two rectangles, each five by 10 inches. These pieces will serve as ends of the view box. In one of the rectangles punch, cut or drill a hole in the center about one inch in diameter. On the white side of the rectangle, tape the aluminum foil over the hole. Pierce the foil through the hole with the needle or nail. This section will serve as the aperture or pinhole end of the view box.

Next, place the large sheet of matt board, dark side down, on a flat surface. With the pocket knife, score the sheet lengthwise on the white side five inches in from either edge. Bend the sheet along the two scored lines at 90 degree angles. This will produce a trough-like shape with the white side on the exterior. Finally, tape the two rec-. tangular pieces to the ends of the trough to complete the planter-box shape.
