...Leet, professor of Geology, announced yesterday the development of a technique by which earthquake-recorders can discover and chart storms over 1000 miles away. The College's new seismograph, which made its debut last month, may make the weather-man's job 25 percent more accurate, he said...
Professor Leet has successfully tried his technique on several hurricanes. His method, he says, is practicable only if the seismograph gives a running report to observers above the ground. The College's new instrument, which dispenses with underground journeys and photographic plates, is the first of this type...
Equlpped with the means to provide seismologists a complete picture of what is happening inside the earth during quakes, a new kind of earthquake-recorder made its bow at the University Seismograph Station late last month...
...machine, devised by Roland K. Blumberg 4G, may well be the "seismograph of tomorrow," predicts L. Don Lect, professor of Geology and director of the Station. It records earth tremors on special tape in the seismologist's own office, eliminating the need for trips to underground stations to determine which quake messages are being recorded...
Although the recent tremors in Maine from which this conclusion was drawn were slight, they created sufficient disturbance to be picked up by the University seismograph in Harvard, Massachusetts...
