TYPHOON
(Continued from Page 1)
·』༔*"
The rainfall recorded at the Royal Observatory between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. was 77 Inches.
Dimculty was experienced in charting the course of the typhoon, largely due to the fact that the Pratas meteorologica!
station.
formerly operated by the Chinese Government, has fallen into the hands of the Japanese and alleged ly has been destroyed."
It is known that since the Japan- ese took over Pratas, the absence of meteorological Information has been a serious danger to shipping
in the Far East.
The Government, it is under- stood, has been in lengthy corres- pondence with Japan in an effort to restore the service. The nego- tations are still proceeding, but so far the only results have been o few meagre reports.
Nothing was heard about the present typhoon from Pratas.
"THE AGA KHANT"
The new President of the As- sembly, the Aga Khan, is one of Geneva's most ardent golfers. writes correspondent in the
"Daily Telegraph."
Both there and at Aix-les-Bains he is a well-known figure on the links. Indeed, he got in a round of golf before attending the League Assembly which" elected him its president.
He is a persevering player, al- ways llable' to reduce his handicap, which fluctuates. I am told. ber tween 8 and 10.
For a description of his game I cannot do better than cite the
2 quatrain written" recently by # Geneva observer:
Fe hit the ball from hanging lies
Or any kind of alant! Approach and drive the Aga enn
But putt the Aga Khant.
A vast army of golfers can claim kinship with him on that ground.

"It is a kind of shell with a specially prepared termite filling fred by normal anti-tank guns. These shells, exploding inside the tank, develop 4.000 centigrade, by which, of course, steel and fron melt like snow."
