.. Cosmology, which is the study of
the properties and structure of the
ilniverse, has received much pub
lic attention recently with the in
stallation of the 200-inch telescope
atop Mt. Palomar.
One of the reasons construction
of the huge instrument was under
taken was to implement study in
this field. Scientists hope it will
aid them in determining whether
the universe is finite, whether the
nebulae are receding, as has been
theorized.

Southern Bloc Hopes
To Prevent Filibuster
WASHINGTON, March 4 (AP)
Southern Democrats tonight
claimed a whopping majority to
beat down an expected administra
tion-backed attempt to choke off
their five-day filibuster in the sen
ate.
Senator Russell (D-Ga) told a re
porter that a private poll taken by
the southerners indicates they
have 58 votes.
All they need is 49 votes, a simple
majority, to override an expected
ruling by vice president Barkley in
favor of ending the debate quickly.
“We have enough votes to defeat
II— -
the effort to break the filibuster
against this proposed rules change,”
Russell said at a late hour.
An associated press survey show
ed the southern bloc gaining sup
port, but less heavily than Russell
claimed.
Latest AP figures showed 43 sen
ators—24 democrats and 19 repub
licans—on record as saying they
will vote "no” on efforts to gag the
debate by a possible ruling from
the chair.
Nineteen senators — 16 Demo
crats and 3 republicans—said they
would vote "yes.”

tion meeting will be held next
