PORTAGE LAKE LOOKOUT:
New 'U' Observatory Nearly Comnplete
By LEONARD GREENBAUM
The University's new observa-
tory located at Portage Lake took
another step towards completion
with the recent installation of its
dome.
The dome, 28 feet in diameter
and 41 feet above the ground, was
added to the modern structure a
year after the scheduled date.
THE OBSERVATORY was be-
gun in April, 1948, as a result of a
$100,000 grant from the MacGreg-
or Fund of Detroit and a $160,000
grant from the University.
The 24 inch field telescope
wVlhich will allow coverage of
wide areas of the sky is due to
arrive early this week.
Named after the late Dr. Curtis,
chairman of the Department of
Astronomy, from 1930 to 1942, the
telescope will be ready for use
shortly after the first of the year.
THE DEPARTMENT of Astron-
omy, under the leadership of Prof.
Leo Goldberg, has been gradually
rounding out its facilities in order
' to offer a broad program of grad-
uate training for future astron-
omers.
The completion of the Portage
Lake observatory marks the ful-
fillment of the department's plans.
The new observatory brings
the number of those owned and
operated by the University to
four.
It will be used for research on
distant stars and their galaxies as
well as on many small planets and
comets.

OTHER LOCAL sites are the
McMath-Hulbert Observatory near
Pontiac where solar research is
carried on and the observatory on
Use of New
'Cold Cure'
UnderFire
Dr. Warren Forsythe, director
of Health Service, yesterday de-
nounced use of anti-histametics
as a cold cure without a doctor's
prescription.
He warned students against us-
ing drugs for self-treatment of
colds "until time-consuming,
well-controlled studies and more
clinical experience provide con-
clusive evidence favoring their
use.'"
* * *
NEO-HETRAMINE, most suc-
cessful of the anti-histametics in
treatment of colds, was recently
approved by the Pure Food and
Drug Administration for sale as
an "over the counter" product.
Dr. Forsythe called this gov-
ernmental action "an interesting
new development in the approval
of self-medication by non-medi-
cal people."
This federal approval has re-
sulted in nation-wide advertis-
ing campaigns by companies
which manufacture the anti-
histamines for commercial use.
According to local pharmacists,
demand for the drugs in Ann
Arbor far exceeds the supply
available to wholesalers.
Dr. Forsythe cited several com-
plications which may result from
indiscriminate use of anti-hista-
metics.
Probably the most important of
these is the possibility of deaden-
ing the individual's mental facul-
ties, he said. This may result in
dangerous automible accidents
or, in the case of students, inabili-
ty to cope with school examina-
tions.
