Ocean Currents
Govern Rain

Washington, June (AP) - Re
ports of changes in two important
ocean currents are before the navy
photographic office, where a close
watch is being kept in anticipation
of other similar changes.
Word that the Humboldt current
which swings up from the Antarctlc
off the west coast of South America,
had changed it's course somewhat,
bringing rains to arid regions for the
first time in the memory of men now
living, have been supplemented by a
report from the steamer India Ar
row, indicating changes in the Japan
Current about 500 miles east of
Japan.
While no definite explanation can
be given of the phenomena because
of insufficient data. officers incline
to the view that it is direct result
of the decrease in solar radiation
reaching the earth in the past three
years. The drop in this radiation
was first announced by the Smith
sonian Institution, but it is pointed
out that although the radiation re-
Gently returned to nearly normal
again, 1t could logically be expected
that surface ocean waters would not
reflect the change for some time, due
to the slowness with which the ocean
reacts to any such change.
The change noted in the Japan
current was attributed to the Oyash-
Two, ordinarily weak current COM
parable to the Labrador current IN
the Atlantic, which runs down the
coast of Asia from the north. The
Oyashiwo, 1t was said,T had developed

waters through Bering Strait, and
apparently had cut athwart the Jap
an current.
A similar situation is believed to
have caused the change in the Hum
boldt current off South America. Ell
Nino, ordinarily a weak, warm cur
rent which flows south periodically
from Panama, gathered increased
force this year and overrode the
Humboldt current. This quite log
ically could set up different air
movements and bring warm, moist
winds to the land and so cause an
exceptional instance of precipitation.
Evidently there has been for some
time fairly wide spread abnormal
condition in ocean surface waters.
particularly off Australia, the east
coast of South Africa, and in the
North Atlantic. There has been un-
usual strength to the movement of
waters from the North Atlantic up
around Spitzbergen, and possibly as
a reaction to that, an increased
movement of the waters swinging
south through Bering Strait. Officers
are watching closely for reports on
the Georgia current, which swings

No! | would certainly never place
my belief in such an idea. Since good
putting is merely the proper adjust
ment of the length of the backswing
plus sense of touch and distance, the
more accustomed one becomes to the
club he uses the better he will be in
this department of the game. Swinging

the player every chance in the world
of becoming proficient on the greens.
Good solid practice with one putter is
