Friday | Th<“ vernal equinox, which her alds the beginning of Spring, oc curs at 5:01 o’clock on the after noon of March 20th this year. At thtit moment, the'earth's axis is at < 'right ang-ii to the direction of the sun. At the vernal equinox day and night arc equal ail over MtjJtoiifjf&t- - .*•/***»■ m|n^ The other time during the year when this occurs is in September, at the autumnal equinox, which will occur on September 23rd in 1053. In addition to the equin oxes. there is a Summer and Win ter solstice, which ushers in Sum mer and Winter, respectively. The Summer solstice begins in June, when the North Pole is tilt ed twenty-three degrees and twenty-seven minutes toward the sun and therefore in the Northern hemisphere the days are longer than the nights. At the same time, the days in the Southern hemis phere. where the South Pole is pointed away from the sun, are shorter than the nights This difference, which is caused by the tilting of the earth's axis is often misunderstood by many who know only that the vernal equinox marks the beginning of Spring and that the "some kind of day" in June. September and De cember herald the other three seasons. Another question which is often not clear in the minds of many is why the hottest days of Summer seem to come after the Summer solstice, on which day there is more sunshine than any other day in the year. The reason for this is that tin1 earth continues to build up heat after the Summer solstice, while losing only a por tion of it at night, an^i therefore the automobile. R. Buckminster Fuller, struc tural theorist and designer, has developed a geodesic dome that will cover the circular innei court of the Rotunda. On the grounds, a half-mile roadway will contain sections of different road surfaces that have evolved with highway transporta tion over the world. More than five million persons visited the Rotunda in Dearborn before World War II, when its dis play areas were converted to of fice space.
