SUN SPOT THREAT
 BELIEVED PASSING
Astronomer Says "BIemish' Is Breaking Up, He Finds

Pasadena, Cal. Aug. s Pl-J. Q. Hickox, Mount Wilson observatory astronomer, declared that a large sun spot which for a time had threatened to cause magnetic storms and consequent interference with telegraphic and radio communica- tions was disintegrating.
 The sun spot estimated to meas ure S3,O00 miles in diameter, was observed last month by Dr. Seth B. Nicholson Of the Mount Wilson staff. It was expected that it would ap- pear with greater intensity this week but, Hickox said. it apparently started to disintegrate while that portion of the sun was turned away from the earth. Twenty-Five days are required for complete revolution of the sun.
