Bang! Another
 Illusion Gone

DALLAS, Texas, reb. 28-There wasn't any more mud in Flanders fields than usual when American soldiers fought there. It just seemed like more, says pr Edwin J. Eos cue of Southern Methodist Uni versity.

 Studying climatological data. he compiled the true story of rainfall at the Western Front and found.
 The four years of the conflict were not unusually rainy. In fact, the first two years were only slightly above normal and the last two, when the American troops were in France, were below nor nal. Hence, the detonation of high explosives seemingly had no influ- ence upon the total precipitation.
