new AXIS THEORY
Professors at 5ryn Mawr and
swarthmore Attribute Shocks
4 to Unequal Pressures
BLAME MOUNTAIN STREAMS

Biologists at Swarthmorc and Bryr
n Mawr Colleges believe the Garth tremors
detected all over the country yesterday
BY scismograph were CAUSED by The
"slipping'' of great quantities Of rock
somewhere of the Pacific Coast.
They do not agrce. however, with the
theory that the disturbance was caused
BY q change in the earth's axis. The
earthquake shocks, so severe that many
seisnographs were thrown out Of or.
der. are being discussed widely in SCI.
sntifc circles.
'Only once have seen more violent
tremors recorded by. our seismogrnph, p"
said DR.. j. A. Miller, Of Swdrthmore
College. This is. the only seismograph
"rhe distnrbapce must have becn off
The coast of OrS9on or Washington, at
q profound depth. as there were no tidal
waves. The original catsc probably
was the slippage Of vast rock strata. ]
rsn see no basis for the theory that
there was a readjjust'hent Of the earth's
axis of rotation
DR.. Florence Bascom, head of the
geology department Mt Bryn Mawr Col
at was an effort Of the earth TO
maintain a condition of equal pres.
sures. The earth is continually SUBJ
jected to the strain of removal Of earth
from one place to another. :,
"For instance, on the California
Coast, where the mountains face the
sea, the weight of the land above and
below the sea level must be equal. How.
