A ground search in the area of Hinton, Just west of Oklahoma City is to be conducted by Oscar E. Monnig, a Fort Worth astronomer, Dr.

La Paz said. The meteor Is believed to have disintegrated in Oklahoma because there it was very bright, caused windows to rattle and emitted a loud roar. In Waco, where several persons saw the flaming meteor. Dr. Walter J.

Williams, astronomer at Baylor university, said that it probably was an early arrival of the annual shower of Leonides which usually fall on the earth about Nov. 19.

He described It as being "about as long as a telephone pole." Several observers said the meteor emitted puffs of black smoke as it disintegrated. At Fort Worth, Monnig said a meteor of that size would create a "shock wave" of sound from -10 15 miles on each side of its course as it traveled at supersonic speed through tht atmosphere. The shock wave, Monnig said, Is heard as a jarring boom, -trailing off into a roar, as was heard in the vicinity of Hinton. The detonation was so strong that one Oklahoma motorist said that it jseemed to almost I knock his car off the road. Because many people be- lieved the meteor was a burn- ing plane, search for a fallen aircraft was started at several l-cities.

Two planes were sent out from the Reese Air Force I base at Lubbock to search an area north of Post but found nothing. Tex.
