Fokker (1967) has raised the question of whether the optical and radio homologies of flares are correlated. Two 2b flares occurring nearly 54 h apart (July 9 and 12, 1968) were observed at 29 wavelengths from Hα+4.00 A to Hα−4.26 A and at 10-cm radio. Adjacent pictures were spaced 0.295 A and 2 sec apart. The time resolution of the radio traces was about 10 sec. Detailed comparison of the pictures showed near-perfect similarities in the two events. These similarities included flare shape, filament agitation, rising arch formation and surges with line-of-sight velocities nearly 200 km/ sec observed. Comparion of the microwave radio flux traces showed detailed similarities in the shapes and ‘simultaneity’ of at least eight features.
