Old Sol Retains Job Despite
Forecast of Cool Summer

Yet this summer may be the hot
test on record.
"Talk about the sun losing its
heatv he exclaimed. "Why the old

ment for thousands of years and has
not been found wanting.
"They are planting the same crops
in the fields of Egypt now as they
did when King Tut-Ankh-Amen
laughed and grew fat on the produce
from those fields" he said.
Some day he hoped trustworthy
weather predictions may be made as
a result of his labors.
"But we've been measuring radia-
lion so short time" he said, "that
t would be foolishness to base pre-
dictions on our data. DR.. S. P. Lang

on the airplane, started these solar
'adiation experiments. l followed

world is doing it. Wait a few thou
sand years and then astrophysicists
can tell you something. They'll have

Sun spots, blamed for everything
in history, have been returning to
blot the suns escutcheon on an av-
erage of once every eleven years
since they were discovered by Calico
800 years ago.
"Think of the sun as bed of red
hot GOALS" he suggested. "You take
a poker, stick it into the Goals and
stir them up. You get sun spot. 1t
denotes great activity in the sun
and causes an increase in tradition.
However, it is usually cooler on
earth, probably because the sun spots
cause cloudiness which reflects the
radiation"
1t is an interesting but not alarm
ing subject, he emphasized. 1t has
been proved that the suns heat
varies from day to day. So how can
one foresee disaster because today's
radiation is unusually low?
you'll probably want to go to the
mountains by August" he concluded.

Washington, May 15.-Cheer up!
The worst is not to come. Don't
pawn the panama, for there are no
signs oof chilly summer time. And by
no means is the sun surrendering his
portfolio as camp fire to the earth.

recently was credited with predicting
a cold summer, and suggesting the
gradual colling off of Old Sol. He is
DR.. Charles. Greedy Abbot, in charge
of the astrophysical observatories and
laboratories for the Smithsonian in
stitution, and said to know more
about solar radication than any other
man in the world.
DR.. Abbot does believe, however,
that there is a close relation between
the suns radiation and the weather,
and that present vexatious behavior
of the climate over the country
generally is due partly at least
to a gradual decrease in solar heat
since November, 1921.
"But see no probability of the
radiation falling any further" he as
serted, "and it may be back to nor
NAL within a month, or sooner. 1t
was just CIllS low III 1910 anu you
know there have been heat prostra-
lions since."'
Asked if the "present great num-
Der of sun spots" might not portend
a cold summer he laughed.
"Where did you get the idea that
there are many spots on the sum-"
he inquired. "Why there are very
very few spots. We have reached
the sun spot minimum. Really, that
usually means a fraction of degree
warmer weather."
This markedly cantankerous wealth
er, he explained, was expected by
him and his colleagues. Observations
of the suns radiation had been made
daily since 1918. In November, 1921,
it began to decline sharply. Down,
down, down it went until in October
last year the suns heat was 3 per
cent less than when the drop began.
And it has been diving to still weaker
levals since.

The annual Junior Senior reception
was put on at the Armory Friday
evening, at this time forty-one Semi

nineteen honorary guests being en-
tertained by the Junior Class number
ing fogsy-eight students.

The program was exceptionally
good. Clifford Reynolds as toase-
master presided with great cleverness,
his remarks being very original and
appropriate.
Donald Inglis, President of the
Junior Glass, gave the Address of
Welcome" which was characterized
by gracious cordiality.
Howard Whitcomb, President of the
Senior Glass, in the Response
thanked the hosts very cordially
for the open hearted hospitality
shown by the Juniors, and the wonder
full banquet they had prepared. A
group of little girls from Miss Tall
bergs class in the Grade School then
gave very pretty little Japanese
dance and sang an accompanying
song. Miss Iverson sang two very
appropriate songs of the Orient which
were greatly appreciated as this
was probably the last opportunity
the students will have to hear Miss
Iverson's voice, which has given them
so much pleasure during the last two
years.
Alma Parker gave beautiful toast
to the Seniors which was followed
by Miss Johnson's inspiring talk on
Loyalty. "Senior Rimes," a humor-
Gus poem giving the characteristics
of the individuals in the Senior Class,
was recited by the class poet, Tom
Gull. Edward Mason gave the "Class
Prophecy" which was very original
and full of witticisms. Gladys Grim
Minis gave a splendid talk on Friend
ship" which was very characteristic
of the school spirit between the classes
and individuals. Miss Veva Halver-
son, an honorary guest, gave a sort
but interesting, extemporaneous talk,
and recited a brilliant little poem
which suited the occasion very neatly.
Miss Iverson's Parting Words" which
were straight to the point and very
forcefully given ended the program.
The menu for the reception was
as. follows:
