Meteor Society Tries To Track Down Fireball Paths The American Meteor society, whose president is Dr. C. P. Olivier of the University of Pennsylvania, Is deeply Interested In determining the heights, paths, and possible landing places of spectacular fire balls, which light up the night like day, are often quite noisy, and are seen from localities hundreds of miles apart. Sometimes newspaper requests for observers' accounts bring over 100 letters to the regional director of Uie society. The present writer received 617 reports on the twilight meteor seen over California and Nevada, November 29. 1945. The method of tracing will be de scribed next week. Although the meteor society un dertakes to trace and publicize only very startling objects, we always American Box Buys Timber LAKEVIEW, Jan. 10 Timber holdings of the Underwood com pany located east of Lakevlew were sold In December to the American Box corporation, 11 was announced this week by J.

CORRAL Located At Fairgrounds Les Gardner and his Western Rhythm Busters Admission $1 Per Person Inc. Tax In Art Exhibit welcome Isolated reports on quite unusual and strange meteors. During December 1947, aside from two spectacular fireballs, accounu of three lesser, but very Interesting, meteors were received. On the 9th, an air corps veteran reported he had Just seen a fairly bright object which appeared to be traveling hori zontally. Just skimming along the tops of the distant Cascades. Its motion seemed relatively slow It was likely 200 or 300 miles away during the four or five seconds It was In view. Near the end of the flight the Impression was received that It actually was getting slightly higher. On the Hlh at 6:50 a. m. a news paper boy was startled by a flash, and on looking up saw "an awfully big white llRht right overhead" dashing northward across the only clear place in the sky. In a fraction of a second It struck a cloud layer and was lost. The boy was greatly excited. At about 8 a. m. the day before Christmas the wife of a newspaper editor saw a curious green light floating leisurely down the sky. "It did not seem to change In size or color, nor did It explode as some meteors do. It was so interesting it seemed like 30 seconds before It dis appeared behind the trees, but I imagine It was only a small frac tion of that time." It too was likely very large and quite distant The California-Nevada fireball of 194S was both spectacular and strange. To those obtaining a side view. It seemed to be traveling al most horizontally, and was surely In sight for 20 seconds. It was vari ously described as a "luminous ci gar." "a flaming blue monster." "ell-like." "a green Iridescent fish" and "a nebulous and slimy pollywog going through the sky." But a wom an at Napa, Calif, ended her de scription with, 'This meteor was a thing of beauty, long to be treasured In memory's chest." A big meteor is a sight of a life time. It- is often mistaken for a plane falling in flames, or a foreign "infernal machine" of some sort. During the recent war. one such ob ject caused a great deal of expense to the army and F.B.I, before its nature was determined.
