The purpose Is to correct a discrepancy in time-keeping due to tiny changes in the earth's rotation. The changes were discovered In 1953 with the development of atomic clocks so accurate it would take 50,000 years for one of them to gain or lose a second.

Conventional clocks measure time based on the assumption that the earth takes exactly 24 hours to rotate on its axis. Atomic clocks record time by registered vibrations of atoms making up a molecule of a special gas. These clocks have noted a tiny slowing in the earth's rotation. To compensate, the world's master clocks since 1958 have been subject to fairly frequent, very minor corrections of a thousandth of a second here and there. But astronomers of the U.S.

R. Winkler, said navigators at sea or aloft, who need accurate clocks in navigating by the stars, "must be protected from i clock)' errors of possible fatal consequences." So, by international scientific agreement reached more than a year ago, the world's official timekeepers today add a full second just before midnight (GMT). "Future action," said Dr. Hall, "will depend upon how the earth rotates. It could be that it will speed up again, in which case we'd subtract a second.

In any case, we'll be making big-ger changes, but less often than heretofore, possibly once a year.

In the United States, the National Bureau of Standards' radio station WWV at Ft. Collins, has the responsibility for providing standard time and frequency service to the nation. It keeps its clocks precisely synchronized with those at the Naval Observatory in Washington. After resetting their own master clocks, observatory scientists will monitor time signals and navigational signals from key naval installations throughout the world to make certain they've followed previous instructions to make the switch.
