It is called the radio-synchrono- graph, and was invented by Mr. B. B. Deshpande, a young. Hindu re- search student of the Royal In- stitute of Science, Bombay, who recently accepted a post as pro- fessor of science in a Belgaum college.

Clock-synchronisation on land is common the world over. Railway stations, and big offices in cities having an A. C. electric supply have synchronised time, the clocks being run on a common A. C. sup- ply from the mains. But this is only possible when electric con- nection is available and can be conveniently established.
