Don Treadwell Wins Second
Race; Leads In Tournament
<I
An exact duplicate of Monday's fin-
ish in the 50 yard free style featured
the 50-yard back stroke race in the
all-campus swimming tournament
yesterday.
Asa result Don Treadwell who
duplicated his feat of winning the
free-style finds himself more firmly
entrenched than ever in the van of
the field vying for the mythical
crown. Treadwell has amassed 460
points against 320 for Bill Tull , his
closest competitor so far.
Tull finished second to Treadwell
yesterday followed by George Paul
and Don Currie, the same quartet that
finished one-two-three-four on Mon-
day.
The swimmers will be idle until
next Monday when they clash in the
50-yard breast stroke at 4:30 p.m. in
the waters of the Intramural Pool.
Yesterday's sport scene also wit-
nessed the near completion of the
first round of play for the all-campus
table tennis singles championship.
When the smoke of blazing serves
and forhands had cleared, James Key
had conquered Devon Siith, Mentor
Roberts had defeated N. Bsharah,
A.A., Brand had vanquished M.
Prime, Robert Weisman had beaten
A. Baltacioglo, A. Michelson had
triumphed over Don Currie, and Don
Laurer had humbled Camilo Posada.
Two matches remain to complete
the first round. They will bring to-
gether John Schwarzwalder and Lov-
al Petram and. John Sykes and M. K.

University's African Observatory
To Make Special Study Of Mars
Approach'
15 Years
Subject
With the planet Mars now
closer to the earth than it has been
at 'any time in the last 15 years, the
University of Michigan's South Afri-
can observatory at Bldemfontein in
the Orange Free State will be turned
over to Prof. E. C. Slipher of the
Lowell Observatory late this month
for special observations of that
planet.
On July 28, Mars will be .only 35,-
000,000 miles from the earth, the clos-
est it has been since its last favorable
opposition in 1924. The minimum dis-
tance possible is 34,600,000 miles,
while the maximum is 248,000,000
miles. Mars and the earth are brought
closer together than usual at some
oppositions be.cause of the shapes of
their orbits around the sun.
Professor. Slipher's trip to South
Africa is being made because accurate
observations of Mars at this opposi-
tion will be impossible from the nor-
thern hemisphere. The planet will be
very low in the southern sky, only
about 20 degrees above the horizon,
and astronomers never try to do ex-
acting work at such low altitudes, for
the effects of our own atmosphere
then become very pronounced in
causing blurring and unsteady im-
ages. For this reason few, if any, of
rour northern observatories are plan-1
ning to do any systematic work on
Mars at this time. Even the Lowell
Observatory, established largely for
the study of Mars and widely known
as the "Mars center" for our earth,
will not try to do much at its site in
Arizona.
In the southern hemisphere, how-
ever, the situation will be different.
At Bloemfontein, Mars will be almost
directly overhead when it is closest to
the earth. Because of its favorable
situation, facilities of the Michigan
observatory have been placed at the
disposal of the Lowell astronomer.
The Bloemfontein institution was
established in 1928 for the discovery
and measurement of double stars in
the southern skies. It is known as the
Lamont-Hussey Observatory in hon-
or of Robert P. Lamont, an alumnus
of the University and the donor of
the observatory, and William J. Hus-
sey, former director of the Michigan
observatories. The Observatory is
equipped with an excellent 2712 inch
refracting telescope. During its first
ten years, 5,650 double stars were
discovered at this observatory.
Because of the great distance be-
tween the planets and the limits to
which the image may be enlarged,
the photographs of Mars to be taken
during Professor Slipher's observa-
tions will have a cross section about
that of an ordinary lead pencil. For
this reason, multitudes of photo-
graphs will be taken, the best to be
preserved for future study and exam-
ination. Visual observations of Mars
will also be made.

CHICAGO, July 19.-(1P)-A 13-
year-old boy, Charles A. Comiskey,
2nd, will prboably become the young-
est major league baseball magnate
by inheriting the Chicago White Sox
from his late father, J. Louis' Com-
iskey, thus leaving sole ownership of
the -famous team in the family for
three generations.
Pending filing of the will, probably
next week, the impression prevailed
among intimates tonight that the
ball club would be left in trust for
Charles A. Comiskey until he is of
age.
