Campolo's career to date is al most without parallel in the box. ing game. Son of a wealthy Ar- gentine rancher, Campolo was sent to La Plata College to study ac counting. His father wanted him to get a degree in economics in or- der to handle the affairs of the rar.ch.
Star Athlete.". Personally, Campolo wanted to study medicine but he soon lost in. 10 06 terest in even that. He took up boxing when Gustave Leneve, his present manager, who is called the father of boxing in the Argentine, saw him workout in his gymnasium. In college Campolo was a star athlete, but was ruled off the basket- ball team because he was so tall be 10.24 could drop the ball in the basket without jumping.

phenomena, but does not know of any study that has established definite relation between weather" conditions and sunspots,"
Ex. Charles F. Marvin, chief of the Weather Bureau, said in a United Press interview.
"I would be exceedingly dif ficult to establish such a relation- ship," he explained, “because of the rotation of the earth and sun, and also because of any one time there are many kinds of weather occurring in different parts of the earth. How many one determine which particular kind of weather might theoretically be correlated with a aunspot which might at the. time exist. We would welcome any rational demonstration that gun- spots control the weather, but, so far this has not been proved, and some of the effects to do so have been absurd,
On the other hand terrestrial magnetic and auroril phenomena have been clearly co-ordinated with the sunspots.
Dr. Marvin said that the Bureau possess information concerning sun- spots going back to the carly Chris tian era, and that a complete de- tailed record of sunspots is avail able commencing 1749. This record has been graphed by bureau scien- tists and shows that the number of sunspots goes through cycles of eleven years, this approximate period elapsing between recurrenco of the maximum number of spots. This maximum falls roughly in the latter part of 1928 and carly in 1020,
''
The record shows that in some months as many as 250 spots have been visible, while in others there may be none at all. The longest period when the sun was unspotted was 23 months from 1809 to 1911.“

Jupiter and Saturn; but other authorities contend that the spots. could be explained by internal ac- tion of the sun," Dr. Marvin said. "Recently the Bureau published, on its merits, a study of the plane. tary hypothesis of sunspota by Dinsmore Alter, of the University of Kanana, which sought to show that short-period fluctuations in the spottedness of the sun could be correlated with the movements of. Verius, Mercury and the Earth. Other scientists entertain the theory that the sunspots may be caused by meteors which strike the sun."
The fact that spots may be ob served on the disc of the sun arises from the fact that these areas are supposedly gaseous formations re- latively colder than other parts of the sun and therefore appear no spots" due to their darkness re- lative. to the, surrounding brighter
arca
The spots although sometimes of vast dimensions are small. in pro- portion to the total surface of the sun. Thus the large spot which t tracted scientific interest lant "April was estimated to be only 1080 one- millionths of the. sun's total surface, and a large spot measured at the Harvard Observatory wat only 1846 one-millionths of the total surface.
In discounting the theory that sunspots map control the earth's weather, Dr. Marvin pointed out that systematic studies of solar radiation have shown that the

allowance for early influences, are only about one-fourth of the total solar radiation. The percentage has decreased as observations have. become more accurate.
Dr. Marvin therefore believes it more rational to interpret weather changes by the demonstrable effect of the sun's heat on the earth thap by attributing weather changes to sunspote which apparently oven from a theoretical viewpoint could exert only a very minor influence.
