Calculations showing that the earth is
continuing to rotate faster than its
regular speed of "a hours per day were
presented to the American Association
of Variable Star Observers in annual
convention here last night
The interest to many people in the
calculations lies in their possible appli-

of the faster speed is suspected to be
