i ing director of the Geophysical In

Cosmic Ray research.
"Scientists are advancing the
: theory that there is a direct rela

able to study the Northern Lights
i so well. In fact the Geophysical In

on the North American continent
that can study Aurora illumination
I consistently, stations to the south of

"the fade out zone” and do not get
a true reading on Boreal character -

While in Washington, D.C., Dr
Wilson will ponfer with Dr. A. G.
