RAIN ADDS TO WOE
Clouds Block View
For 1000 Scientists

ORONO, Maine, July 20
(AP).-Dense clouds followed
by a rain storm blotted out the
total eclipse for 1000 profess
sional and amateur astrono-
mers on the University of
Maine campus today.
DR.. Donald Mcneil, director
Of the Harvard College ObServ-
atory, and 800 members of the
Astronomical League, holding
a convention here, were among
the disappointed observers.
During totality,. the eclipse
plus the heavy clouds brought
almost total darkness to the
scene for one minute.
Thousands of dollars worth
of astronomical equipment had
to be hastily covered or rushed
indoors when a sudden rain
storm swept down on the scene
about five minutes after total
ity.
Big puffy clouds played a
war of nerves elsewhere with

Justice Checks
Chicago Charge

The Justice Department said
yesterday it is looking into IAN
onymous allegations" concern
ing the conduct of the United
States marshal's office in Chi
cago by Marshal Joseph N.
Tierney.
A spokesman said the ALE
cations of rIistreatment of some
individuals were sent to the
department more than a week
ago.
"The allegations were vague
and gave no names of persons
repeatedly mistreated, but in
order to treat the allegations
with certainty the department
Immediately began an inquiry
which should be concluded
Soon." he said.
Mr.. Tierney in Chicago said
there was no truth to the ALE
cations.

officials did not expect a gov
ornamental rejection of what
the negotiators agreed to.
Whether the United States
Senate will agree is another
matter. Prospects are for con-
siderable debate, at least be-
cause a number of legislators
have indicated opposition to a
test ban pact with the Rus
slams.
Senator Symington, Demo-
crat Of Missouri. said yesterday
tn at any nuclear test ban
agreement must make ut pos
sible to detect any cheating"
before he can support It. But
he indicated In an interview,
taped for broadcast In Florida,
that he could support an agree
ment which did not cover
underground testing.
The proposed treaty, outlaw
ing above-ground tests but still
permitting those underground,
would be putting into formal
written form a moratorium
which is already In effect. Mr..
Kennedy announced June 10
that the United States would
not set off further atmospheric
shots II no other nation does,
and none have.
Even a formal. treaty APP
proved moratorium could be
comparatively short lived. IN
der the tests ban term s pro-
posed by the United States In
the three-power talks, no party
TO the agreement need be bound

French have indicated they in

dence. Shadows cast by leaves
of trees changed shape, and
each leaf cast its shadow in
the shape Of q tiny crescent
just like the crescent of the
eclipsed sun.
As If a master producer were
calling the tune on q super
spectacular, the climax to the
show was introduced with q
socko effect. At $40, just a
minute before the eclipse
reached its maximum over
Washington, the sun went be-
hind the only cloud in the
western sky. The cloud was
hardly bigger than the sun,
and not very thick.
Seen through film-filters, the
slim crescent Of the sun ap-
peared for a moment to be
surrounded by a halo. Then
the little cloud passed. and the
moment Of maximum eclipse
came with the sun unobscured.
Other areas did not fare so
well as Washington. IAN ex-
tended cloud covering extend
ing from off the New Jersey
coast westward into the Ohio
Valley" was reported by the
Weather Bureau.
New York City saw the show,
but nearby New Jersey missed it.
The eclipse was the first to-
tai blackout Of the sun over
the United States since June
80, 1854, and the last until
March 7, 1870. There has never
been a total eclipse in the
Washington area in recorded
history, and none Is expected
here before 2024.
Paradox Of Time
The rare phenomenon began
at dawn today in the Pacific
off Japan and ended at sun
set yesterday in the Atlantic
off Nova Scotia. This seeming
paradox Of time running back
ward is explained by the fact
that the racing shadow Of the
moon crossed the international
Date Line early in the course
Of the eclipse.
Scientific observations CEN
tered on several areas in Alas
ka, Northern Canada and
Maine. The Maine eclipse zone
Ia strip about so miles wide
running through Bangor and

NASA Supports

By the Associated Press

The National Aeronautics

placed itself firmly on record
as supporting development of
a 2,000-mile-an-hour SUPER
sonic transport that will re-
quire advanced structural
materials.
James e. Webb, NASA ad-
ministrator, said at an aviation
briefing for newsmen yester-
day that NASA definitely sup
ports the advanced design
rather than development Of a
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. transport
Of conventional aluminium
structure.
The Federal Aviation Agen-
cy, which is in charge Of the
supersonic transport program,
has come out no more strongly
ON this point than specified by
President Kennedy, who
merely called for q faster plane
than that being developed in
Europe.
The French and British
jointly are developing the

Of about $500 miles an hour.
