PROF. KELLY TELLS HOW FORECASTERS PREDICT WEATHER

High School Instructor Says Readings of Barometer Enable Him to Foretell Temperature Changes. The predictions of frost and snow, and storms, and cl;ar and cloudy woather, which interest the general imblic, are incidentals to the weather man. The men who understand meteorology, say they are never surprised lit any sudden change In the weather. B. K. Kelly, who has charge of the observation instruments at the High School, says that he pays little or no attention to the thermometer, but can accurately fortell the approaching changes by the rise and fall of the barometer. "Any rise of the barometer," said Mr. Kelley, "will be accompanied by a fall in temperature, and when the barometer begins to fall, the temperuture will go up accordingly." Uses Charted Records. Mr. Kelley has charted records of the relation between the temperature changes and the rise and fall of the barometer, dating back several years. These records are made plain by means of the Thermograph and the Barograph which automatically record the changes in barometric pressure and temperature for each minute of the day. In looking over these charts it is easy to see that at the

exact moment the barometer starts to rise, the temperature starts to fall. To predict the degree of change in temperature, the weather observer watches the government weather maps printed each day, which show the temperature, barometer pressure, and other weather conditions all over the country. Weather Moves Eastward. "Our weather always moves from the Pacific coast, east across the continent," said Mr. Kelley. "If we have a low pressure area in the west today with a temperature up to 85 or 90 degrees, the same conditions will exist here in two or three days, with not more than 10 degrees difference in the temperature. It takes from four to six days for a pressure area to cross the entire continent. "Hoth the low and high pressure area originates most often in the Pacific northwest. If a high area originates there we may expect very much lower temperature. If the "high" originates in Southern California, it never brings cold with it. Clear and cold go together. If a "low" comes fromjtho southwest wo can expect warm and usually rainy weather." Wind Moves Around. Mr. Kelley explained that the direction of the wind around a high pressure area is always clockwise, while around a low area it is always counter-

STRENGTH OF "Y" Roach's Team Fills Open Date Hoover-Bond's Will Meet Dayton Standards.' The Earlbam basketball team will play the Y. M. C. A. team at the Coliseum Friday night, having been unable to arrange a date with the Indiana Dental college. Fans are of the opinion that the "Y" team can give a better account of itself than either the Dents or the Winona Aggies. The "Y" has not been defeated been defeat id has not been defeated this season, naving won from two of the best teams in the state, the Kokomo "Y" and the Holy Grail team of Anderson. Last year the "Y" played the Quakers on their own floor and defeated them. The team expects to repeat the victory tomorrow night. The Quaker, on the other hand, have not forgotten the defeat and have been longing for another chance. Dunbar and Logan probably will start for Earlham at forward, with Morrisch at center, and Mees and Lancaster at guard. Roach will start with Laning and Parker at forwards, with Roach at center and Spot Schepman and Brunton guards. The curtain raiser will be furnished by the fast Hoover-Bond independent team opposing the Dayton Standards, and a good game should result. Penny will start Harrington and Rowe at forward, with Weichman at Center, and Parker and Hampton guards. A. A. U. rules will be played in both games.

clockwise. Hence the cold weather will precede a high pressure area from the northwest, because the wind blows the cold air down from northern Canada, while warm weather follows the high area, because the winds have passed through the Gulf region and are waiting southern breeees before them. In a like manner, a low area from the southwest, usually brings rain, because the wind moving counter-clockwise, sweeps over the Gulf and then to the north, where the colder air condenses the moisture from the southern winds and causes rain to fall. "When ever a big low Is followed by a big high, we always have intense cold," said Mr. Kelley. "By a cold wave we mean a drop of 20 degrees in 12 hours. The observation instruments at. the High School include the Thermograph for recording a charted record of the temperature, a Barograph to record the barometric changes, and maximum and minimum thermometers for recording the high and low temteratures for each twenty four hours, and an anemometer for recording the wind velocity.

GRAILS WANT GAME LODGES OF EATON

Anderson Team Holds Date for "Y" Five. The Holy Grail basketball team of Anderson wants revenge on the "Y" team for the awful drubbing the local five administered to them a short time ago. Manager Roach has received a letter from them In which they state that they promise to give a better account of themselves the next game and that they are holding Dec. 29 open for the local team the the game to be played there. Roach has not decided whether he will accept the proposition as he would like to have a home game on that date.
