Observers in the United States and Canada should look carefully at the total eclipse of the sun on Wednes day, Aug. 31, for they will • not see such an awe-inspiring spectacle again until July 20. 1963. Still that's not as bad as it might be. Up to just a couple of weeks ago, astronomers were saying that another total eclipse of the sun would not be visible in the United States and Can ada until Oct. 12, 1997, which is tio years hence. Then they made a startling dis covery. And that discovery makes an interesting story. It goes thi3 way: Back in 1887, Dr. Theodote von Cp polzer, an Austrian astronomer, com pleted the monumental task of chart ing and mapping 8000 eclipses of the sun from the year 1207 B. C. to 2162 A. D.. He published his charts and maps in book form. Von Oppolzer's book has been the bibie of every astronomer dealing with eclipses. Os course, his calcula tions were approximate, but consid ering the immense magnitude of his work they were remarkable. His calculations put the next total eclipsee, visible in the above-mention ed area in the year 1997. Until just re cently, astronomers accepted that with out question. But a few weeks ago experts con nected with the U. S. Nautical Ala manac began a new check of Dr. von Oppolzer’s calculations. To their sur prise, these new calculations showed that there will be another total eclipse visible in the said area only 31 years hence. The eclipse of July 20, 1963, astrono mers say, will follow approximately the same path as this year’s eclipse. It will sweep out of the northwest, cut across the southwestern edge of Hudson Bay pass over Maine and dis appear in the Atlantic Ocean. In 1945. 1954 and 1959 small eclipses will be visible in the United States, but there will be none of importance until 1963. The 1932 eclipse will begin at sun rise on the Arctic Ocean. It will sweep northward to within a few hundred miles of the North Pole, then swing southeast across northern Canada, Hudson Bay. province of Quebec, enter the United States over northwestern Vermont. New Hampshire and south eastern Massachusetts. Then it will •pass over the Atlantic and end in midocean at sunset. The largest city in the path of totality—that narrow belt where the sky is completely blackened—is Mon treal. Just outside the edge of the path is Boston, where the eclipse will be almost total; in New York, the sun will be 95 per cent obscured. Other Oities, depending on their location, will see varying degrees of obscurity of the sun. The actual period of totality—mean ing the moment when the sun is total ly obscured at. a given place—is just 100 seconds. Therefore, scientists must work fast. But for nearly an hour before and an hour after the maximum of the eclipse is reached, there is a period resembling twilight. For example, at Portland. Maine —where the eclipse will be total— the eclipse will begin at 2.21 p. m.. will reach its maximum at 3:30 p. m. and will end at 4:34 p. m. As everybody knows, an eclipse of the sun is caused by the moon get ting between the earth and the sun. The moon casts a great, cone-shaped shadow on the earth. At the point of this shadow the ecHpse Is total; out side that comparatively narrow track it is only partial. As the moon moves in front of the sun, the disc of sun disappears from view. First the sun is only partly over lapped, then completely. Two or three minutes before the eclipse becomes total, the moon’s shadow comes sweep ing over the landscape from the west with great swiftness. Suddenly the eclipse becomes total and the whole sky grows dark. When the moon completely blots out the great orb, a rim of red fire ap pears around It. This Is the upper at mosphere, or chromosphere, of the sun, ordinarily invisible because of the glare of light. Shooting out Into epace from the chromosphere are qptet tongues of crimeoi* fire. Sur- HENDERSON, (N.C.,) DAILY DISPATCH WEDNESDAY AUGUST 24 198* ECLIPSE TIME TABLE FOR VARIOUS CITIES The time that the eclipse of the sun can be seen in various cities ■ of the United States and Canada on Aug. 31, and the extent to which the sun will he obscured by the moon, Is given here. The hour is expressed in local standard time in each case. , Pet. of Time of Totality Maximum Portland M. 100 3:30 p. m. Montreal 100 3:24 p. m. New York 95 3:34 p .m. Washington 89 3:35 p. m.

Francisco 15 1:41 p. m. rounding all this is a silvery halo, called the corona. The coropa can be seen only during a total eclipse, and that is why astronomers work so* feverishly to observe and photograph it while they can. During the past 50 years, they have had less than a total of 30 minutes in which to do this. When the last trace of the sun has disappeared (in the belt of totality) and the moon’s shadow has engulf ed the spectator, tho scene is awe inspiring. Often the temperature drops sometimes dew falls, strange breezes spring up, seemingly different from the breezes of normal day or night. Flowers close, birds go to rest, ani mals in the fields and woods seek re fuge, cattle grow restless and dogs often set up howls. The sky is onry about half as bright as that of a full moon. Often the darkness is so Intense that it is im possible to tell the time by a watch. Far off on the horizon an orange aft erglow effect is seen; it is the weak sunlight shining on the world outside the path of totality. Stars appear overhead, the eclips ing moon seems to hang in the heavens moon seems to hang in the heavens like a giant cannon ball, with apparently nothing to keep it from falling on the earth. | DABNEY NEWS i By MRS.
