We present polarization measurements obtained in 1970 in the green coronal line with a new coronameter located at the Pic du Midi. The analysis of these data has been conducted with the theory given by the writer in 1964 and 1965. It appears that magnetic field orientations in the Corona can be deduced from the above measurements. First results showing large scale magnetic structures are presented.
