Obscured In the annular phase ninety-three cent, of the sun' diameter was ob scured. The light was about one hundred times that of a full moon. Astronomers and physicists set up elaborate instruments throughout the path to study a wide range of scientific factors connected with solar rays. These rays can be studied only when the sun is in eclipse, because they are too intense for practically all instruments when solar power is full. The Chisos Mountains in Texas were the scene of an expedition to measure the intensity of rays coming from the edge of the sun.

Used New Instrument At Mount Locke, Texas, Dr. A. M. Skellett of the Bell Telephone Labora tories, studied the corona a ring around the sun which was not visible to other observer. because the light was too bright today through a new instrument known as a coronavisor.
