1. Introduction Of the known regions in the ionosphere, the F 2 region shows the most erratic variations. Whereas the E and F 1 regions show ionization maxima diurnally at noon, and seasonally in midsummer, in accordance with theory (Chapman 1931), the F 2 region on the other hand frequently shows diurnal ionization maxima both in the morning and afternoon, with a minimum near noon, while the seasonal variation shows maxima near the equinoxes and minima at both midsummer and midwinter. In addition to these unusual diurnal and seasonal variations, the region is particularly subject to disturbances, most of which tend to lower its maximum ionization density. Thus Appleton and Ingram (1935) have shown that magnetic storms are frequently accompanied by a decrease in the F 2 ionization, while Martyn, Munro, Higgs and Williams (1937) have found that all bright hydrogen solar eruptions are accompanied by a reduction of the maximum ionization density. In addition to these types of variation, Martyn and Pulley (1936) found some evidence that the noon F 2 ionization density correlated positively with the barometric pressure at the ground.

Summary and Conclusion1. Diurnal variation in fibrinolysis is marked in the Whites and almost absent in the Bantu. >2. The difference in fibrinolytic activity beween White and Bantu has been confirmed, but was found to decrease over the course of the morning due to diurnal variation in the White subjects.3. The ingestion of butter fat does not inhibit fibrinolysis to any appreciable extent in either White or Bantu.4. The accelerating effect of heparin on fibrinolysis was found to be present in lipaemic plasma, but appears to be distinct from the fat-clearing effect.
