An observation of the corona during the 7 March, 1970 eclipse through a Wollaston prism-red and blue filter combination was carried out for the purpose of confirming the prediction that the component of the K-corona with electric vector radial to the Sun is redder than the tangential component. An analysis of a portion of the resulting data seems to confirm this prediction, and also indicates that the method is useful for determining the three-dimensional configuration of the very inner corona. A three-dimensional configuration is suggested for a portion of the NE quadrant of the Sun, including the large NE streamer and an adjacent low-lying loop.
