f of the 200-inch mirror for the Hale telescope.
me giant telescope, largest of it's type in the world, will be
back in operation "well before the first of next year," said
upservaiory uirecior ur. ira o?s
Eowen.
When testing last year reveal
ed the outer 18 inches of the
mirror's surface was slightly
turned up, it was removed for
additional polishing which took
five months. The added polish
ing corrected spots on the sur
face which were about 20-mil-lionths
of an inch too high.
Before the mirror Is placed
back into the telescope tube, it
will be coated with aluminum.
"Although we believe we have
now obtained as nearly a per
fect surface as possible," Bowen
said, "we cannot be absolutely
certain until the telescope has
been tested further under ac
tual operating conditions. If,
after a year or so we believe
we can further improve the mir
or by additional polishing, we
will undoubtedly remove it
again and do such additional
work as we deem advisable."
The observatory director said
the telescope may now be able
to record objects more than four
million times fainter than the
faintest stars which can be seen
with the naked eye.
First photographs taken with
the Hale telescope in January
indicated that it might be able
to penerate the limits of our own
stellar system. The instrument's
range is twice as far as that of
the next largest one, the 100
inch telescope at Mt. Wilson,
Cal.

$6000 in Gold Dust
And Nugget by Miner
Seattle, Oct. 24 (U.B More
than $6000 in gold dust and
nuggets were found today in the
estate of a 70-year-old Alaska
placer miner who died Thurs
day while watching the stock
market quotations.
Carl W. Jolin, a bachelor, left
one gold nugget as "big as two
thumbs," Glen S. Corkery, at
torney for the estate, said.
The gold was found by Cork
ery and William E. Walker, an
old friend of Jolin's, scattered
throughout trunks, grips and
boxes in the basement of the
rooming house where the miner
lived.
"I am mystified as to how
Jolin managed to keep the gold
since his Alaskan gold rush
days, since his cache was easily
accessible to anyone who chanc
ed upon the hoard in his base-
ment depository," Corkery said.

By VIRGINIA MACPHERSON
Hollywood, Cal., Oct. 24. (U.R) Actress Betty Davis holed

husband whom she said had threatened her with bodily harm.
But her husband, William Grant Sherry, 34 year old painter,

always told her, 'Just try to
get rid of me,' " Sherry said.
"That girl and I were made for
each other, and I'm not going
to let her go.
Wnen I first heard about the
divorce suit, I thought someone
was trying to play a joke on
me. When I learned it was true,
I was just sick. I'm sure she'll
come back when this whole
thing blows over.
"It's just a matter of control
ling my awful temper, but I
know we can patch this thing
up if we can just set. each other
again."
Meanwhile Miss Davis, whose
