Local Boy Leads For Seven Miles.-Taken Out at
 Glastonbury
To Co in for Shorter Distance in
 Future

Edward Redfern. 22. of Putnam, entered his first long distance swim at Hartford last Sunday morning. The Putnam boy was one of three contestants who entered the choppy Connecticut river in the early morn ing hours and started the ls-mile grind to Middletown. Other con testants were the winners, Frank Fad nick of Southington, the only swim mer to finish. and Archie Rltchie Of Windsor. Zadnick made the distance in 12h hours. 37 minutes slower than the record set by Virginia Don- eoes in 1927.
 Redfern and Zadnick stafted simul- taneously at 5.27 a. m. The Putnam boy gpurted at the start and took a lead over Zadnick. This lead he kept as long as he was able to remain IT the water. He covered the first mile in 24 minutes and 2 seconds. Ritchis started about six o'clock and did mol catch up to the others. Stomaci trouble caused him to give up aftei he had been in the water for mor' than four hours and had covered more than eight miles.
 Was in Lead
 Redfern had lead of about i0' yards just before he reached Glaston bury. He then seemed to los strength suddenly and after houn dering around few minutes he sanl once and was then hauled into tn boat. He complained that his leg would not longer function.
 Redfern. told Patriot representa- tive that he did not know just wha happened to him. He said his leg seemed to go numb. Tt was use less for me to stay in the watei when couldn't move my legs" h' said.
 Redfern Is not to give up swim ming. His experience has taughi him a lesson. He now knows that hs is better at shorter distance, from one to five miles. The fact that he led until his legs went bad and made the seven miles in the record time oi 2 hours and 50 minutes brought hin to a realization that he has better chance in shorter distance contests He is already negotiating for entries in such races.

III. S. SCIENTISTS TURN CAMERAS
UPON TOTAL ECLIPSE OF SUN
Tiny Pacific Island Site of Observation of
Phenomenon-SeekN New Data
on Corona.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, october 21.-American
astronomers on Tin Can Island, in the
South Pacific Ocean, expect for SO sec
onds today to watch the dance of the
atoms" which laymen call a total
eclipse of the sun.
The fetal eclipse begins at 1851 pm.
Eastern standard time, which is 9:09
am. tomorrow morning. October %. on
the tiny, three-mile wide island that
is one of the only two land spots in
the world where this spectacle will be
visible The other is another small,
lonely island of the Pacific, Nurakita,
but no observations are expected there.
In a literal sense, astronomers OBJ
serve the dance of the atoms" during
an eclipse. Their principal studies are
made with telescope photographs taken
through glass prisn1s, called spectre
scopes, which break up light into its
colors and record on the Photographic
plates shadowy lines, each of which
represents a mass of particular kind
of atoms in the sun.
Due to Space Curvature.
The dance" under one of the veri-
fed predictions of Einstein's relatively
theory, is grester in and about the sun
than on earth. That is. in scientific
terms, the atoms around the sun vibrate
more or faster than do the same kind
of atoms on earth. The reason for
this. under the Einstein view. is the
peculiar curvature of space" about the
neighborhood of the sun.
This is the same curvature" which
so sensationally demonstrated the Elm
stein theory when, during an eclipse
in 1919, astronomers observed for the
first time that it caused bending of
rays of light from distant stars, as
Einstein had predicted.
During a total eclipse astronomers
get their best opportunity to study the
substances of which the sun is made
and the laws which govern matter
there.
The sun is the only star which they
can study in any such detail, and so
