Power service in the Silverton

hours Sunday morning after an
automobile Silverton police
state was driven by Henry Volk
1616 N. Fifth street, ' Salem
struck a power pole on the Sa-
lem-Silverton highway just out
side the city limits.
The impact caused several
fuses to burn out throughout
the area extending into Silver
Creek falls and though the pow
er went off at 2:45 o'clock in the
morning it was restored in Sil
verton by 7 o'clock and later in
the day throughout the affected

damage state that two high-voltage
currents were mixed by the
impact which caused the general
interruption of power.

public instruction, within a week
after the district voted 431 to
300 an authorization of $375,000

the local school housing prob
lem.
This rating will make the dis
trict again eligible to receive the
approximately $40,000 in basic

schools non-standard.

Amateur Astronomers of
West to Meet in Los Angeles
By J. HUGH PRUETT
Aitranomer, ExteniioD Dirliion, Oreion Hlsber Education Syatem
Giant telescopes, elaborate spectroscopes and Schmidt cameras,
although exceedingly useful -instruments, are not absolutely
essential to the trade of "astronomer's," especially the amateur
variety.
Many have remarked to me:
"I'd dearly love to study the
stars, but one has to know so
much to get anything out of it.1
In answer I can quote the ef
fective slogan of the astronomi
cal club of Yakima, Wash.:
"Anyone who can see can be
an amateur astronomer.
The non-professional astron
omers of all the western states
are planning a big convention at
Los Angeles starting August 22,
1949, and continuing for three
days. There have been smaller
regional meetings in the west,
such as the (northwestern section
of the Astronomical league
which meets at Portland, but this
all-western get-together for the
students of the starry skies is the
first of its kind.
The plan was started by Prof.
G. Bruce Blair of the University
of Nevada and others, but it was
later turned over to the large
and efficient organization, the
Los Angeles Astronomical i
ciety, which is promoting the
undertaking with vigor.
Most of the sessions for papers
will be on the campus of the
University of Southern Cali
fornia in Los Angeles. Others
will be held at the Griffith ob
servatory and on Mt. Wilson at
the site of the 100-inch telescope.
The convention banquet is sched
uled at "one of the finest restau
rants on Wilshire boulevard" on
the evening of Aug. 23. The
next evening there will be a
dinner at the Mt. Wilson hotel.
According to the latest bul
letin, at least 30 papers will be
presented. "These include major
papers by Prof. Walter H. Haas

(New Mex.), Dr. J. Hugh Pruett
(Ore.), Prof. G. Bruce Blair
(Nev.), Dr. R. S. Richardson (Mt.
Wilson observatory) and others."
From 30 to 60 minutes each will
be allowed for presentation of
the major papers. Others will
be limited to 10 minutes.
T. R. Cave, Jr. (265 Roswell
Ave., Long Beach, Calif.), the
program chairman, writes that
he is swamped with correspond
ence. "Everything is going ex
ceedingly well with the conven
tion. It seems to grow larger
and larger with each passing
day. The attendance should be
equal to or better than any of
the eastern meetings."
All interested in astronomy
are invited to this convention.
Owners of portable telescopes
are asked to bring their instru
ments for display and a possible
contest on construction and per
formance. It is hoped that this western
convention of amateur astronom
ers will inspire great numbers,
even though they cannot attend,
to look often into the sky, that
great celestial window through
