Hundreds 'View Moon In Observatory' Scope

Hundreds of stellar matter fans and astronomy students jammed the Harvarfid College and Smithsonian Observatory last night and got a good general idea of what it's liek to be in the center of a star.

While William Liller, Robert Wheeler Willson Professor of Applied Astronomy, talked engagingly about the evolution of stars and the significance of "E equals MC squared bit worked out by Einstein," the visitors sweltered in the near-astronomical temperature that prevailed in the lecture room.

After the Liller talk, in which he encouragingly noted that the sun had "about one billion years before it quits," the crowd was split into sub-groups by a complicated system of colored cards. These sub-cultures then ventured forth to view the moon through the 15 in refractory telescope and the Epsilon-Lyrae double double star combination with the 9 in telescope. A good view was had by all.
