A
Prof. Hugo Hergesell Pioneer In Field
Berlin, June 7. famous German meterologist who made it possible for Zeppelins and Gothas to carry out ther air raids on London during the Grent War has just died in Berlin,
He is Professor Hugo Hergesell. the meteorologist who supplied the weather reports for the German air raiders during the war.
He was born at Bromberg in May, 1859, and after graduating in Noturni Science, was at an early age appoint- cd director of the Meteorological Burenu for Alsace-Lorraine and a professor at Strassburg University
In 1800 he was appointed President of the International Commission for Scientific Aviation, and carried out important research into air-currents, etc., by means of flights. With the Prince of Monaco he took part in several expeditions, made voyages in German warships to study almon pheric conditions, and, as friend and adviser of Count Zeppelin, played a part in the development of German alrships. For many years President of the German Airmen's League, he was very popular with aviators.
In 1914 he took over the direction of the Prussian Aeromutical Obser- vatory at Lindenburg, and during the Great War prepared the weather re- ports for the army and navy and the pilots carrying out air-raids.
Rising to the first rank of German meteorologists, he became a professor at Berlin University, director of the Meteorological Observatory at Pots dam, a member of the International Meteorologien! Committee, and chairman of directors of the German Meteorological Instituto.-Reuter.
