BLAKESLEE (Associated Press Science Editor) NEW YORK, July 20-(AP)-New England will see a total eclipse of the sun August 31. That is just 52 days less than 4069 years ago when two Chinese astronomers 'were beheaded for 'get- ting drunk at the world's first re- corded eclipse. Since then strange events at eclip- ses identify the big steps in the whole story of human progress. Beheaded For Miscalculation The two, Chinese, Hsi and H , miscalculated the time of the an- cient eclipse. Worse yet, they mis-timed an ad- vance celebration, so that they were too drunk to appear in the royal presence to shoot arrows at the monster; devouring the sun. For that they were executed. Any of the astronomers gather- ing from America, Europe and the orient for the New England eclipse would feel disgraced if their calcu- 'State Senator's Auto Saved From Auctioneer DETROIT, July 20.-(AP)-State Senator George J.

(standard) for this event missed by even one sec- ond, or if they were a mile wrong in forecastingthe 50 mile wide path of total shadow., Eclipse History Studied One of these astronomers, Dr. S. A. Mitchell of the University of Vir- ginia, has gathered some history of the former eclipses. Between the first one and the, most famous one in all history, in 525 B. C., the world made a big, stride. By the time wise men had learned to use eclipses for political purposes. According to Herodotus, Thales, a Greek, told the Ionians there would be an eclipse. They in turn told the Lydians, who had been fighting the Medes for five years. "They were still warring with equal success," s a y s Merodotus, "when it chanced, at an encounter which happened in the sixth year, that during the battle the day was turned into night." They stopped fighting and made peace. Good 'Press Agent Stuff' By Julius Caesar's time eclipses were in the press agent class. One, is said to have occurred when Cae- ern astronomers find that there was no such eclipse, and they ought to know, for they have dug up about 2,600 of them since the two Chi- sar crossed the Rubicon. But mod- nese lost their heads. The Rubi- con eclipse was evidently flattery. Shakespeare's writings are full of references to heavenly phenomena as omens of good or ill. Junior irls .
