Convmc yovrtelfl BROS., Inc. store received second prize and Eyewitness Tells Of Eruption by Hawaii Volcano An eye-witness description of the recent eruption of the Ha waiian volcano, Mauna Loa, was Riven here yesterday by James Wintterle, formerly of Medford, now visiting at the home of Mrs. Frances Stevens, 1208 Saling street. Young Wintterle is the son of Mr. and Mrs. T. D. Wintterle, Salvation Army officers station ed in Medford until last year, and now serving in Honolulu. He attended Medford high school, and was graduated from Roose velt high school, Honolulu, this month. Flew Over Volcano The young man flew over the erupting area of the volcano in a small plane during the height of the display. "It was pretty warm, " he said, even at an alti tude of 500 feet. The air was rough due to the updrafts cre ated by the heat. It was late in the afternoon when he made the flight, Wint terle explained. The lava was .not coming out of the main crater of the mountain, but out of three subsidiary craters or holes in the side of the moun tain. The lava bubbled and churned, he said, sometimes spurting from 50 to 200 feet in to the air. "Hot And Beautiful" "It looked mighty hot and mighty beautiful," he said. It flowed down the slope in wide swaths toward the sea. Flying along the course of the flow, Wintterle said he and his com panion were above the cliffs when the lava dropped into the ocean. Huge clouds of steam boiled up from the lava when it hit the water, and although the liquid rock did nothing but glow as it flowed toward the sea, when it struck the water tongues of flame spurted upward, he said. 2 BALCONY SPEC.

Huah Pruelt Astronomer, Extension Division, Urffton Hither Education System Lute in the evening of May 19, my telephone rang. On the line was a very gracious woman who regretted bothering me. (Really, I uon't mind honest inquiries at all. The time 1 was called out ot bed around 3 a. m. to see sparks flying from the Pleiades sparks which I couldn't see might be an exception.) The caller said she and sev eral friends had been wondering what had happened to the moon. "Is there an eclipse? There is just a little rim of light on one side and the rest is quite dark just barely visible. If it isn't an eclipse, what can be wrong with it? 1 am far from being young, but have never seen anything like this before." Complete Dark Orb Near the horizon and consid erably north of west the "thin slip of a new moon" was beau tilul in the unusually clear spring sky. Cradled in the lum inous crescent there reposed an almost complete dark orb, "the old moon in the new moon's arms. The ligntea ana uaiK parts together formed a com plete circular disk. This inquiry is on which I receive year after year, espe cially on clear spring evenings when the crescent is far north and does not set until the suy is quite dark. The question is old to me but is always new to the inquirers. No, the dark part is not an eclipsed moon, bucn events take place only at full phase. The phenomenon in question is due to earth-shine, pure and simple.

The rest of the illuminated part is turned away from us. Nearly all the side that is facing us is in the lunar night. More Earth Light If there were such creatures as moon-men, they would see a full earth at the same time that we see a crescent moon. Since the earth is much larger than our lunar neighbor, full earth casts 40 times the light that full moon ever gives us. No wonder then that their nocturnal land scape is so brilliantly lighted that even earth-dwellers are able to see it although only faintly. Through telescopes especial ly early In the evening this combination surrounded by the rich blue of the twilight sky forms a most charming picture. From night to night as the cres cent becomes wider, the dim part becomes harder to see. By half-moon it is invisible except ing in optical instruments. There will again be a crescent moon in the evening sky the latter Dart of this week and in an easy observing position north of west. Watch for the complete circle of visibility and the be witching earth-shine on the dark part. 2!
