MeteorOlOgy
By Archibald Henderson

the North Atlantic have proven
of incalculahle value to aviar
tors contemplating TRANSATLANTIC
flight. II heavy storms were IN
dicated by the forecasts, the
flights were postponed, how
ever fair and enticing the
weather was locally. Many lives,
undoubtedly, have thus been
saved, many airpla1e wrecks
or losses prevented.
It is quite true, from the SCI
entific standpoint, that, as the
Bible hath it, "the wind bloWetn
where it listeth." In meteorol.
ogy. however far it develops as
& science, there will always be
an element of the haphRzard,
Of the unpredictable. But no
nieteorologist doubts that there
are great laws Of the physical
universe, of wind and weather,
Of temperature and tide, which
remains TO be discovered.
AS yet we have learned how
to forecast only a few of the
natural forces which are gov
erned by law.
The approximate course Of
the Gulf Stream was first
charted by BENJAMIN Franklin,
it appears, shortly before the
Revolutionary War. Following
Franklin, who was able TO trace
the progress of cyclones, FerreH
first formulated. considerably
less than century ago, the
law Of behavior of the air In Q
cyclone.
We are accustomed TO deal
with colossal figures in the do
main of the geologist and the
astronomer. The geOlogiSts vary
greatly in their estimates Of the
age of the earth, or of the dlra.
tion Of life on the earth.
The astronomers, during re-
cent years. have greatly ex-
tended our reach into the inter.
stellar spaces and compelled the
use Of much longer yardsticks.
The lneteoroligst, who deals
with the winds, their velocity
and force, deals also with the
higher magnitudes. For it has
been estimated that the total
energy Of the motion Of the
winds of the earth is something
near twenty billion horsepower

C|UC| REAL DARK HORSE OF TOURNEY
DiminutiVe Italian,American
 Finds Heat to His Liking

Interlachen Country Club, Minne- apols, Minn., July 10 (UP) - The terrific heat promised for the na- tional open golf championship has brought out real dark horse" in the drive for the title, little Henry Ciuci.
 The diminutive Italian American from stratford. Conn. has found the high temperatures just to his liking. Where the suns rays have been burning up the other Al contest ants, Henry has been burning up the course.
 Donning yellow sweater. a pair of gray wool trousers and immacu- lately pulling his tie up into his col lar, with everyone else playing in as few clothes as possible, Ciuci sped around the Interlachen links in 69 yesterday, three strokes better than par for a new course record.
 While other players, rated much better than the little Italian were faltering under the blistering. rays of one of Minnesota's hottest suns, Ciuci hardly worked up a sweat.
 Today was even hotter than yes terday. Henry took his 115 pounds, most of which seems to be in his wrists and forearms, around the course in n. Ciuci has seemed in other tournaments to lack just the necessary ability 10 cut three or four strokes off his score and finish in front.
 The heat has done we'll by him here and it admittedly has hurt the chances of some of the heavily built stars. Observers pointed out that Ciuci will find it much easier to cover 72 holes with the tempera- lures in the 90s than will the fel- lows who weigh 40 and 50 pounds more.

MAJORS INSIST 0N
 UNIVERSAL DRAFT
Another Bitter Baseball War Looms After NOguls' Meeting

Chicago July 1o.-tP}-A new front in the baseball wars took form today as the three big minor leagues and two smaller circuits considered an ultimatum from the Am erican and National leagues which demanded that the minors either accept the universal draft or hunt alone for players.
 In their first midseason joint meeting yesterday, American and National league club owners ap- proved a resolution that all player relations with the three A leagues the International, Pacific Coast and American association-the Three Eve league, a class B or ganization, and the class A Western league, be severed December 1, 1930, unless the latter agree to be- come subject to the universal draft.
 The drastic step means that the major leagues will release no more players to the minor groups invov- ed, or buy any players from them.
 From the Pacific coast, officials of the San Francisco club said they would not submit to the universal draft without a battle.
 George A. Putnam, secretary Of the Seals, characterized the edict Of the major leagues as "an auto cratic move that will not be foisted off on US without q fight"
 Final say in the situation" Put nam said, rests with the Pacific Coast league as a whole. but we have taken up the challenge now. The working agreement Ca modified draft agreement) we have had with the majors for the past several years has been satisfactory and we feel that any attempt to revise it to the benefit of the big league clubs is an injustice'
 Dale Gear, president of the Vest ern league called the action merely a move on the part of the majors to get complete control of base ball"
 Tt simply is a peg on which to hang d lot of trouble" Gear said. The right of selection means noth- Ing as so few players are drafted and the purchase price generally is much more than the draft price,
 President Thomas J. Hickey of the American association, expressed sur- prise at the action of the major league owners, but would make no comment on the probable attitude of the directors of his league.
 Hickey, however said the prob lem would be discussed at a joint meeting of the big minors, the American association. International league and Pacific Coast league. in Chicago August 5, and expressed the opinion that things would be ironed out.'
 Robert J. Connery, owner of the St. Paul club of the American asso- ciation, said the draft will not solve the problem.
 The major leagues are drawing big crowds, they are enjoying pros perity, but most of the magnates in the American and National leagues have no idea of what is going on in the minors said Connery.

YACHTS 10 MEET
 IN RACE TODAY
Weetamoe and WhirlWind Set
 Of on Course at Newport

Newport, July 10 Pe-After hay ing met and vanquished each of the other three contenders separately during the past three days, Weet- amoe, the Morgan Nichols candi- date for the defense of the Amer ica's cup, went out today for her second race with Whirlwind, the Thorne-Hammond boat,
 With the sole exception of her victory Tuesday over the Yankee, the Boston entry, sailed by Secre- tary of the Navy Charles Francis Adams Whirlwind has been sore disappointment to her supporters. If Weetamoe does not show her the way back to Newport this afternoon it will be little short of amazing.
 Todays other match race, bring ing Yankee and Enterprise to- gether again, was expected to fur nish a more exciting contest. Yankee won her first victory from Enter prise Monday on the opening day of the present series A good breeze would favor Yankee but the past three days racing has been sailed in light air and there was little in forecasts to indicate strong CT winds for today's contests
 Weetamore and Enterprise are the light weather boats of the fleet and they won yesterday in the calmest weather since the series opened. A continuation of such con ditions this afternoon would give those boats decided advantage.
 Beginning today, the schedule calls for three days of railing over a triangular course of three ten- mile legs. It is possible that this course may prove more agreeable to some of the candidates than has the 30 mile windward leeward course of the past three days. Ger tainly there will be more opportu- nifty for skill and seamanship, for there will be two marks instead of one to turn.
 Although Nectar has a very substantial paper lead over the other boats, having taken three straight races to each of the others one, the Enterprise and Yankee still seem very closely matched. Weetamoe's victories over Enter prise and Yankee lave been by narrow margins and are conclusive in the opinion of observers, who point out that she has had her own kind of weather in races to date.

The minor leagues are in a bad way, and instead of trying to force something down their threats, the majors should be offering to help them. If the draft will solve the question, as the majors believe, then I would like to know why those leagues which subscribe to the sys- tenn are going out of existence.
 "A conference between practica! baseball men, from both maj jors and the minors could iron out this diff culty."
