Although the huge 83 lncb telescope of the McDonald ob servatory, Joint project, of the Uni versity of Texas and the University of Chicago, on Mt Locke. Texas, la not yet completed, an Investiga tion is already under way near the new observatory to determine the sources of light in the night sky. Using an old 12-inch refracting telescope which was presented some years azo to the xerkes Dserv tory of the University of Chicago by Dr. Q. Ev Hale, assistant Pro fessor O. T. Elvey of the Yerke staff and Dr. F. B. Roach of the McDonald' observatory have been recording the light of the night sky with a recording photo-electric pho tometer desianed by Doctor Bivey. The light of the night sky is made tip of direct starlight; star light which Is scattered both oy the earth's atmosphere and the mat ter in Interstellar space: sodlacal light which la concentrated In the ecliptic but which may extend over the entire, sky; and of the ugnt originating within the atmosphere of the earth; the permanent aurora. This aurora la not the polar aurora, or northern lights, although It Is related to it . t . ' Many Study Problem. ' Many Investigators have studied the problem of the composition of light, and a general Investigation by the Dutch astronomer. Tan Rhljn has shown the following percent age composition: Direct starlight, 18 per cent; starlight scattered by the earth's atmosphere, S per cent; aodlacal light, 43 per cent; aurora, 15 per cent, ''and scattered earth light, 19 per cent im-i 'C'- It la well known to astronomer that there are large floctuationa In some of the sources of light par ticularly of the zodiacal light and the aurora. '.. Lord Baylelgb found that the light of the night sky un dergoes large variations, with a range of eight-fold between the smallest and largest ;"" The variations are sometimes fair ly rapid, Doctor Blvey having found In bis work at Terkes as much as a 25 per cent change in brightness of the Sky within a period of two hours. There' also are dally varia tions In the Intensity of the auroral light In the night sky. which In some parts of the world reaches a maximum about , 2 a. m. and In other parts la at its maximum Just after twilight baa ended. These large variations have made detailed analysis of the light diffi cult, because during .the several hours reaulred. to cover the sky, there are many changes In the light To make possible observations In a brief space of time Doctor, Blvey devised the recording photo-electric photometer. It consists of a 'very sensitive galvanometer, which meas ures the output, of the amplifier. The recording is achieved by shining- a lamp -on the galvanometer : mirror, which, reflects the light to silt behind which , Is a moving sheet of bromide'. paper: tiftft & t. . Deflection Recorded. -.v v '.: , The deflections of the galvanome ter are then recorded on the bro mide paper, which Is directly con nected to the photometer so that it moves past the slit as the Instru ment Is rotated .around .the verti cal axis. , With this Instrument , a complete record of the brightness of the sky on a circle parallel with the horizon can be made In approxi mately five minutes, and the entire sky can be observed In about, an hour.

Now . the Palestine authorities refuse to let him come ashore. & ;;t.; One of. Latest lit Si; light daring this' time can be made by observing a given region of the sky several times. -. Doctor , Boach r already has ob tained over a hundred tracings with the Instrument from which he and Professor Elvey have determined the axis of the sodlacal light the cone of light , that can be aeen ris ing from the horizon after sunset and before, sunrise. v,;;',i;;v,Vr ; Contrary to general belief, the axla does sot ; coincide with the plane of the earththe - ecliptic. Observations show the morning zo diacal llht Is displaced to the north of the ecliptic by as much as Ave degrees. A series of evening observations Indicate that In part of the ecliptic the sodlacal light was near ths ecliptic, apparently crossing J(:4. , The astronomers expect that a detailed analysis of the tracings will give ttie: relative amount and the distribution of the light from various sources contributing to the total light from .the night sky. - .
