Mitchell Field, Jan. 24.-The first of tho thirty-fiye army airplanes from which observations Of the eclipse will be made left Mitchel Field, at 7.45 o'clock this morning and the other planes followed in 1uick succession.
 Conditions for observation from the air were almost perfect, the only clouds In the sky being high bank off the southern tip of Long Island
 The first plane to leave the field piloted by Lieutenant George W Goddard and with Lieutenant George Mcdonald as observer. headed for Newburgh. N. Y. where the eclipse will be photographed from height of about 16,o00 feet.
 The other planes went to other designated areas to circle in the skies and take close observations from the beginning to the end of the eclipse. All were equipped with cameras and scientific instruments to aid in the collection of data on phenomena accompanying the eclipse.

 He had sought the permission of post officers to accompany one of observation airpldnes into the heav- ems, but army doctors advised aganist 1t. As the sun dwindled to- ward the phase of total eclipse, and he what realized what nearly per- feet conditions for observations ex- isted in the rarified atmosphere above, he pleaded to be taken on flight,
 But the officers were obdurate, and the aged professor was forced to be satisfied with the spectacle as he saw 1t from Terra Firma.
 The fliers reported they also had obtained a perfect photograph Of the crescent Of the sun in partial eclipse as it was reflected on the tranquil waters of Long Island Sound.
 Dr. Todd said these pictures of the moons shadow and the suns cres- cent were the first ever to be taken.
