Abstract
A set of four detectors enclosing an area of 5000 square kilometres ha s been used to search for cosmic rays travelling in a wave front as if originating in a shower or in a single short burst. No such events we re found; however time correlations between cosmic rays were observed with a typical spread estimated to about 0.3 ms.
