Taking Moving Pictures of an Eclipse
Tough Assignment
Who Took Exposure Every 2 Seconds
Taking a moving picture of an
eclipse is not an easy task, you
can take it from Richard W. Huf-
nagle, university photographer,
who tried it Sunday. Photograph
ing the eclipse with a 16 millimeter
camera mounted on the telescope
at the observatory, Hufr.agle made
an exposure every two seconds
during the two hours of time which
elapsed In order to show the ac
tion on a screen. More than 4,200
According to authorities. Huf-
nagle's work is among the most
satisfactory yet accomplished, de-
spite the fact it was his first at-
tempt at taking motion pictures of
an eclipse, although he has taken
tills numerous times.
The camera was operated by a
clockwork mechanism which kept
it centered on the sun during; the
time of the eclipse. Thus, the pic
ture on the screen will show the
sun as though it were stationary
and the shadow of the moon in the
set of crossing it The camera had
to be adapted fr the task, A 12

Condra Suggests
Planned Economy
To Conserve Soil
Nebraska should create a com'
mission to erect a plan for the
use of the land resources of the
state, writes Dr. G. E. Condra, di
rector of the conservation and
survey division at the University
of Nebraska. A bulletin published
last week, "Land-Use Problems in
Nebraska" carries urgent requests
by Doctor Condra for careful sur
veys of state resources.
It is a duty of the state and
federal governments to survey and
otherwise investigate and describe
the resources of the land for guid
ance in their proper development,"
he v. rites.
"The use that can be made of
land is affected by the general
social and economic conditions,
some of which are controlled to
some extent by the government,"
according to Doctor Condra, "and
the farm people and the land en
terprises are entitled to the same
fair adjustments and protection
that are made for the workers in
other lines of industrial activity,"
he believes.
Because Nebraska's leading land
resources are soil and ground
water, rather than coal and met
als, Doctor Condra points out the
need for conserving the producing
capacity of soils by proper use of
land.
"The wrong use of land works
a detriment to the community and
the state," he writes, "and must
be controlled for the protection of
the general welfare."
In a similar bulletin published
at the same time, the head of the
conservation and survey division
at the university discusses the re
lation of drouth to water use in
Nebraska. He writes that a uni
form plant cover for the soil will
best hold moisture, and allow its
absorption.
"The deficiency of the state's
rainfall in 1931, 1932, 1933, and up
to September first of 1934 was
about 74.414.133 acre feet," he
points out. "It was greatest in
1934, being about 47 percent below
normal for the period from janu
ary first to September first, says
Doctor Condra,.
Dr. Keim Attends Weed
Eradication Conference
Dr. F. D. Keim, chairman of
the department of agronomy at the
university, is in St. Paul, Minn.,
for a conference on the matter of
weed eradication.
Says Photographer
the necessary shutter opening, lens
stop and filter were dttermined,
and the camera was then mounted
on the telescope so that the field
in view corresponded exactly with
that of the telescope.
In addition to the motion pic
tures, Hufnagle made still pictures
of the eclipse by setting the cam
era in a stationary position and
making an exposure every fifteen
minutes. The results show the phe
nomenon in five stages, with the
first two displaying the primary
action, the third the maximum,
and the other two the gradual re
turn to normalcy.
"Two hours is a long time to
take pictures." the campus pho
tographer afterwards stated, "es
pecially when on Is making ex
posures every two seconds."
The only difficulty encountered
in the entire accomplishment was
found in the fact that vibrations
from vehicles passin goutside the
observatonr are apt to show on
the film ar1 projection. This is
du to th" long focus lens neces
sary to make the moving pictures.

Dr. Lugn Describes
Covered Mountain
Range in Mebraska
'Extending into southeastern Ne
braska from the south are the
"Nemaha mountains," with their
crest located near Nehawka, more
than 3,000 feet high. But this an
cient mountain ridge, called "Ne
maha" by geologists, is buried un
der 500 to 8,000 feet of younger
rock formations of shale, sand
stone and limestone.
Dr. A. L. Lugn, associate pro
fessor of geology at the Univer
sity of Nebraska, describes these
hidden mountains in an article en
titled "Pre-Pennsylvanian Strati
graphy of Nebraska." He tells of
the more deeply buried under
ground geology of Nebraska and
the formations and strata reached
only by deep test drillings for oil
and gas.
Countless ages before history
began Nebraska was a region of
high ridges and deep canyons and
basins, as Dr. Lugn pictures it.
Geologists call this ancient sur
face, now buried, the pre-Cam-brian
surface.
"That is the most ancient crys
talline rock which would be ex
posed If the younger layers from
500 to 8,000 feet thick were re
moved," writes Dr. Lugn. "The
total thickness of stratified forma
tions which lie on the crystalline
basement rocks may be as much
as 8,000 to 9,000 feet thick at the
west end of the state."
Oil and gas, h they are to be
found at all in Nebraska, can be
expected only in the stratified
formations above these ancient
rocky ridges and paslns, accord
ing to the university geologist.
Study of rock formations has been
possible through some 20 deep
dn'Jlngs In Nebraska.
"It is preposterous to claim that
the state has been adequately
tested' both as to the possibilities
for oil and gas and for structure
and stratigraphy in the deeply
buried strata," Dr. Lugn writes.
Mors 'dry holes have been drilled
locally in many oil .producing areas
than have so far been drilled into
the lower Paleozoic strata in the
whole state of Nebraska. , ,
