A short account is given of the optical, radioastronomical, cosmic-ray, and earth-current observations at Nera Ob servatory at Paramaribo (Surinam) and Hollandia (New Guinea) of the solar activity of November 12, 1960, passing the central meridian at heliographic latitude 27 deg N. Flare events from November 10 to 15 are summarized, and H/sub i radiation photographs of the November 12 flare are discussed. The intensity of an unusually strong outburst at 2980 Mc/ sec on November 12 is shown and discussed. A diagram is included showing the flare effect with a standand duplex neutron monitor.
