SEA SPRAY, METEORS
MAY HELP MAKE RAIN

WASHINGTON.-The salt of sea
spray and the dust of meteor:
may play a role in the mysterious
process by which nature turns wa
ter vapor into rain.
Weather experts have lone
known that it takes more thar
water to make a raindrop, the Ma
tional Geographic Society says
The "seed" from which a raindror
grows is one of myriad tiny bits
of solid matter scattered through
the atmosphere. Some 10000 to
100000 such particles float about
in each cubic inch of air.
Scientists at the United States
Weather Bureau and elsewhere
have now amassed a wealth of in
formation about these particles.
They believe the most important in
rain formation are probably salt
crystals. Salt thirstily collects wa
ter, which is the reason salt be.
comes sticky on humid days.
Salt Shot into Air
Oceanographers have discovered
how the salt gets into the air.
Whitecaps and surf shoot out tiny
droplets of water. The droplets rise
no more t11an eight inches from
the surface, but there is time
enough for the water to evaporate,
seaving salt crystals free in the
air. The wind sweeps them up and
carries them away.
Ordinary sea winds may carry
10 to 100 pounds of salt per cubic
mile of air; storm winds, 1000
pounds or more. Deposited every
where on land, the salt may be
tasted on pine needles or seen
giittering on spider webs.
Rainmakers may occasionally get
help from space. An Australian ra-
diophysicist has advanced the
theory that meteor showers cause
rain. In a study of weather re-
cords, he noticed that there APP
peared to be heavy rainfalls on
certain days at intervals of sew
eral years. Searching for some fac
tor that would affect the earth as
a whole, he found correlation be-
tween the heavy falls and the dates
when the earth regularly passes
through trails of meteor particles.

The Amelia Orioles defeated
the Crewe Railroaders by a close
score Of go Friday night in the
season opener for both teams.
The victory marked the first time
the Amelia eleven has defeated
CreWe since 1855 when they up
set CreWe l4-6. David Ingram
scored Amelia S game winning
I'D on 4 IS yard pass play early
n the third quarter.
Neither team managed to score
i'll the first half, with Amelia con-
trolling the ball most of the
time. The Orioles threatened
every time they got the ball
keeping it deep in the Railroader
territory Amelia ran almost at
will until they got inside the
Crewe thirty yard line where the
biz Railroad defense dug in and
stopped the running and passing
attack of the Orioles.
The first half ended in a score
less tie.
The visiting Railroaders kicked
eff to the Orioles to start the sec
ond half Amelia put together a
is yard run back. and then
moved the ball on the ground
down to the Railroaders' IS yard
line. This set the stage for
AmeHa's game winning play.
Amelia's lefty halfback Bob
Vance then uncorked a pass to
fullback Ingram who. with the
aid Of an excellent doWnfield
block by end Billy Seay, raced
to the end zone and pay dirt.
The Railroaders only threat
ened once in the game and this
came directly after Amelia s I'd.

Football opened with a bang
Last week. bringing its usual
doses q hitter and sweet. The
sweets 60 to the victors and there
is LITTLE consolation in coming in
second.
Herald area high schools had
their share Of victories. Prince
Edward Academy opened with a
victory, along with Powhatan,
Cumberland and Amelia. Buck
ingham was struck down by a
strong Victoria team.
More action for local fans is
slated this week with all teams
having games on tap.
Hampden-Sydney opens its 1860
season against powerful Emory
& Henry at Death Valley Satur-
day. This is an important test
for the Tigers. as it will quickly
show their season potential. The
game will have no bearing on the
Little Eight Championship how
e.er. since E&H is not playing
enough games in the league to
compete for Little Eight honors.
Hampden Sydney is the only
Little Eight team Emory will
meet this fall.
The Wasps will be strong this
year and have 10 returning let
termen. Of which three were
named to last years All-Little
Eight team. They are end Levi
Otey, tackle Tyer Pruitt and full
back Harry Yost.
RULE CHANGE IN COLLEGE
The major change in college
football rules is the wild card
rule for substitutions. The new
rule permits q coach to send in
one player between any two plays
as often as he wishes. This is a
step forward from last year, when
the rules were revised to allow
the coach to send in two groups
Of players in each quarter.
This year if two or more
players are sent into the game at
one time, their entry will be
charged against them, and they
can enter the game only twice in
one quarter. If sent in one at a
time their entries will not be
charged, and the can come and
go. one at time, as often as
they like.
Actually this means that a
specialist can be employed, but
the rest of the team should be
Commute calibre.
For instance, it allows a coach
to save his quarterback for Of
Tense only. The OBJ can come in
on the offensive plays and his de-
fensive counterpart can be used
for the defensive plays. A OBJ is
the most valuable man to any Of
Tense and he should not be al
lowed to play defensive football
at any time. That is this writer S
opinion and is not written in the
rule book
Another advantage for the Of
fensive coash is that he can send
in punting specialist. or place

These are the advantages.

Unlimited substitutions give more

require that they go full speed

Early Winners
Indicate Trend
In District 3

The first series of games ii
District 3 have gone into the
modern history file and from
the series it is hard to make
any predictions on the champi
onship Of the district.
However. it is we'll to keep il
mind that the first games count
just as m u h as the latter
games, when it comes to figur
ing out the district winner.
Co ,-.y Victoria emerged as
a pOWerhouse in everyone's boob
with their $50 win over Buck
ingham. Victoria is host to Park
View this week in what will be
the crucial game CT the week
Park View turned back Black
stone 1877, as Blackstone was
surprisingly strong. Park View
has almost its entire squad back
from last year and was one OF
the preseason favorites. Theil
battle with Victoria Friday viii
shed considerable light on the
district picture.
Blackstone lost its first game
to Park View. How will Black
stone fare against Cumberland
this Friday? That will provide
an insight into Cumberland $
strength.
Cumberland ran at will over
Randolph Henry. compiling a
26-7 advantage. At this stage
Cumberland is labeled as dark
horse in the district race, but
they certainly leaped to a fly
ing start with their defeat of
Randolph-Henrv.
Amelia was determined to de-
feat Gre We, the defending
champions in the district. Their
determination was rewarded
with a 60 victory. Crewe lost
heavily through graduation last
June and now appears certain
that a new king will be crowned
after CreWe's domination of the
field last year. CreWe lost only
one game last year, that to
Prince Edward Academy.
Greensville County (Emporia)
got past Southampton 81 last
week Greensville has been pick
ed as one of the preseason
favorites. They will tangle with
the Academy Wolverines t h S
Friday night at Farmville A
better estimation of h e If
strength can be seen at that
time.
Prince Edward Academy look
ed good in their 1876 win over
Fluvanna, so they will be real
test for Gree vile. The
Academy is e independent
school, but F mville Hig h
School was aditionally a dis
trict 3 com etitor.
Brunswick made its intentions
known Friday with a $50 win
over Bluestone. Both of these
teams show promise, but Bruins
wick is definitely of champion
ship material.
At this point it looks like
Brunswick, Victoria, Park View,
Greensville, Cumberland and
Amelia are the teams to watch.

Bonn Arrest of

BERLIN, Oct. IS (AP). -
Communist East Germany has

a West German navy defector
by military police aboard an
East German trawler in the
Kiel Canal is q serious viola

West German navy authori-
ties confirmed that a 23-year-
old sailor was seized October

lying next to the sailors de-
stroyer at the Holtenau Locks.
They said the sailor, who had
been drinking, sought to desert
because he had not been in
cluded in october promotions.
