MEXICO WILL SEE PARACHUTE UNIT DENVER, Sept. 12. blue and white shooting stars, slanting across the night sky In unprecedented numbers, may be an indication that the earth is piercing an uncharted swarm of meteoritic bodies. Eight have been sighted over Colorado in the past 10 nights and reported to Dr.

Nlning. er, curator of meteors at Colorado Museum of Natural History. "It is an unprecedented number of meteors for this time of year, and it may- evidence that the earth is passing, through a swarm that has never before been noted," said Dr. Nbiingcr. "I saw the curator added enthusiastically.

They apparently have no con: ncctlon with, the Pcrseid meteoric shower every July and August, he said. The Ferseid meteors occur when the earth passes through debris of a comet, and all appear to streak across the sky in a common direction. The recent meteors have "come all points of tho compass," Dr. Nininger reported. "We know of no reason for the newest display, but.

it must bo important," he said. "We'll need many more reports from throughout 'the country nnd from over world before wo can reach a conclusion." said some of tne meteors appeared to spend themselves in a shower of sparks, Borne broke into two or three parts as they neared the end of theii- trail, other just disappeared. Niiiingcr, driving home from Texas, saw a white meteor from WMhorse, the night of Sept. 4 and blue one an hour and a half later as he neared Denver. The blue one, he said, loomed in the sky as large as the planet Venus.

WASHINGTON, Sept 12. ffi-- A group of college officials, df- claring that the selective service act was causing confusion among college students, asked Congress today to grrant collegians defer- nVent from military or naval duty until they had completed their then current school The educators, including Dean Herbert E. Hawkcs Columbia university, appeared before-a senate military subcommittee. The. original selective service act provided for the deferment of college students until the end of the 194041 school year.

The college representatives testified that about 1,000,000 young men would begin college studies in the next few weeks and that thousands of them hesitated to matriculate because of uncertainty as to whether they would be drafted. The proposed amendment, however, would apply not only to the 1941-42 school but to all subsequent school terms. Relief work is being carried, on through more than 200 missions in all parts of. China. In addition, 274 hospitals are maintained by the missions, providing more than 75 per cent of all hospital, beds available for civilians in China.
