METEOROGRAPHS ARE SUCCESS

Harvard's pioneer experimentation with automatic radio meteorograph balloons, for upper air soundings, after three years has resulted in widespread use of such instruments for regular weather observations, Professor Charles F. Brooks, director of the Blue Hill Observatory, of Harvard, said yesterday in his annual report.

"Our aim to find an easier, more certain, and less expensive way to sound the atmosphere has been accomplished, and much sooner than we expected, when in 1935 we designed and used the first American radio-meteorograph," Dr. Brooks said.

Besides the Harvard tournament several experiments began, and their spread in to the United States since the Harvard oral other types have been developed the past year has been rapid.
