THE SUN’S CORONA
A PROBLEM SOLVED. (United Press Assn. —Telegraph Copyright.) (Rec. 10.40 p.m.) Boston, October 25. The solution of one of the major mysteries of astronomy, the source of the sun’s corona, was announced tonight by the Harvard Astronomical Observatory, which states that most of the pearly light comes from oxygen and not, as astronomers once believed, from some chemical element unknown on the earth. The announcement further states that other sources of the corona light may be expected to be soon identified.
