V The Month In The Skies ' By Robert II. Baker (Professor of Astronomy, University of Illinois) URBAN A. 111. VP) Have you no ticed the Northern Crown and the Northern Cross In the eastern sky in the early evening? The "butterfly" of Hercules can be Been also, and the V-shaped head of the Dragon. These famous starry configurations are as easy to find as the Great Dip per. After dark on some clear evening in June when the -moon is not too bright, look toward the east. Almost overhead there is a semi circle of stars. The separate stars are not extremely bright, but the figure that they form atracts the at tention. It is Corona, the Northern Crown. Vega is the brightest star In the eastern sky at this season; It Is slightly north of east and well up above the horizon. "Butterfly" of Hercules Halfway from the half circle of Corona toward this star is the "but terfly" of Hercules. It is not diffi cult to imagine here In the , sky a butterfly with outstretched wings. With the telescope directed toward this constellation the observer can view Its mbst Interesting feature, the great cluster In Hercules.; . It is a ball of tens and probably hundreds of thousands of suns at the distance of 34,000 light years, among the nearest of the globular clusters which .inhabit the outskirts of the great system of the Milky Way. The eye alone sees little or nothing of this cluster. Vega Is a white star and one of I Over Night News (By The Associated Press) Forgo, N. D.

Its ring nebula, quite Invisible to the eye alone, appears In the tele scope somewhat like a luminous doughnut; it is one of the showpieces of the summer skies which is often exhibited to the visitor at the ob servatory during this season. Lyra stands about midway between Hercules and Cygnus, whose . most prominent starry configuration Is the familiar Northern Cross. The cross Is rising In the northeast at nightfall on the first of June, its long axis horizontal. These are among the summer con stellations which will be visible throughout this season. With these for a beginning and a simple star map it Is easy to recognize the others. Aqullla, with its bright star Altalr, is found rising directly In the east as the sky grows dark. In the south east Scorpio Is coming Into view with its bright red star Antares.
